was wondering what a decent alarm + immobilior is for the r33 series 2,

preferably something available on ebay!

thanks.

Do you mean something cheap (no warranty) on ebay, that you can install yourself?

A good alarm and professional install is something that should not be skimped on, not when it comes to protecting ya baby!

I'm not going to bother....

actually I will.

I have a fellow flying me to ADL to do his. now if you want to spend nix on security for it then I would like your address pls. I need a donor 33 for the wreck I have here in brissy and yours sounds like it will fit the bill.

FFS spend the money on security. I had a kid come in a few days back that drove a jap S15 with NO INSURANCE at all . only reason he put an alarm on it was someone ALMOST succeeded in getting a parts car by cracking the column.

if you haven't go the money to :

- insure the car

-maintain the car

- secure the car

then in reality you probably shouldn't have it.

make sense..

I installed a mongoose M80AU in my r33 gtr last weekend. Yeah it got it off ebay but they are a reputable brand, and are locally supported. I installed the power window controller as well so it winds up the windows and locks the doors when you press the lock button on the remote.

Has turbo timer support as well.

It came with ultrasonic sensors, 2 stage shock sensor, bonnet switch sensor, battery backup siren, and a lot of wire. I was lucky that the previous owner of my car had left the drivers side central locking solenoid installed from the alarm they had removed from the car.

I dont recommended wiring this in for the feint hearted. I can wire in ecu's faster than this took. The time consuming part is locating the various factory circuits to splice into without a circuit diagram. And removing the interior without braking anything so I can run cable to the boot for power, imobilizers etc. Its a good time to re-wire a stereo at the same time, as i did.

Cheers,

Ian

any recommended suppliers/fitters on the gold coast (or brisbane if i have to)

another quick question - i don't have a remote button/key for my car (95 R33 GTS-t) - so a M80AU will provide this for me?

Take a trip northside for the day and get Chris to do it. At least speak to him about it first.

My alarm that he installed provides the remote locking, I'm sure he can fill in the details.

All you need is one door solenoid for the drivers side. It will use the factory one on the passenger side. The M80AU will fire these solenoids just fine, as it interfaces to the drivers side door controls for the central locking.

Yes defiantly have a pro do this unless your very good at electronics/wiring.

you are better off going to a specialised workshop, having a proper fitment with a product sold in australia with warranty.

You got the car, and if you wanna keep it safe it will cost you a few bucks.

And for Qld fitters see Chris.

also the mongoose alarms on ebay are seconds and have NO warranty regardless who fits them. they need to be sold (new) from a dealer for it to apply.

refer to my previous statements if you do not understand why a proper installation costs $$..

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
