Alarm with turbo timer?

[JT]

I am getting an alarm installed with twin immobiliser for my r33 skyline. The installer seems to think he cannont install the alarm/immobiliser with the turbo timer. Has anyone done this themselves? or know how to do it? Please advise me on this so i might be able to advise them.

He said it had to do with the alarm and australian standards.

thanks

I have a HKS type 1 turbo timer with my alarm/immobiliser and they work fine together. I didn't do the wiring myself but I know it has been done via a relay, so when you turn the key off the alarm recognise that and the engine keep running off the turbo timer. There are no security issues because you are not bypassing anything just separating the two devices with the relay.

I have heard that some alarms either have provision for a timer, or inbuilt timers. If not it can be done via a relay as mine has been done.

Sorry I can't tell you exactly how the wiring is done, as I got it done by the guy who did my stereo install. I had been told by a few people that it couldn't be done also till I came across this guy. He just said alot of guys aren't aware how its done because it isn't that common, and that most guys that do these installs aren't true auto electricans.

Dunno how much truth there is in that, all I know is that mine now works and I can't fault any of the work he did. It is all quality, tidy work.

firstly, you cannot have the feature whereby the doors unlock when the engine dies

secondly, you need a bypass chip that allows u to look your car and immobilise after the engine dies. the chip cost me 38 bucks to add on to my pre-existing alarm.

send it to the shop that fitted your alarm and if the seem incompetent, send to another agent that does the same type of alarms hope that helps

the one on mine was fitted by the previous owner, it counts down once the ignition is turned off. While it is timing out, you can exit the car and press the remote to lock the doors, and set the immobilizer. Dunno if this helps, but it can be done.

yes this is true however you can have it so when you turn the key and pull it out the doors unlock then the turbo timer counts down. then you get out and lock the car via remote and the alarm arms. well thats my car anyways. oh and when you turn the car on both doors automatically lock.. pretty cool.

also when my car is being run via the turbo timer and you lower the handbrake it cuts out

With my car, i have a 3 point immoboliser, and when i turn off the car the turbo timer starts to run, but the car wont actually let me lock it with the remote untill the engine has stopped.

yeah ive got a turbo timer on mine. they wired it into my alarm and it worked fine.

i have an alarm and turbo timer working with each other.

my installer said it can be done, you just have to delay the activation timer on the alarm or something?

[aza]

as long as the immoboliser is not wiered to the fuel pomp the car will still run upn till the timer shuts down most ov the time thay cill the egnishon so theat u cant start it and when the hand brake is let down the car will stall and u cant start it with out the remote the key less entery shoud b abell to lock the car and armit if this is dun

My alarm works with my turbo timer too.

When I take the key out of the ignition, the car stills runs but I can use the remote to lock the doors and as soon as the car turns off, the immobiliser and alarm activate instantly.

this is what mine does.

i start boosting warhhhhh pshhhh pshhh ect you get the idear.

see some hot chicks, pull over.

decide im so cool that i turn off my ignition.

my blitz turbo timer kicks in, set for 1min or there abouts.

if i dont lock my car the imobiliser automaticlly sets after 30secconds.

if i lock the car the imobiliser is armed and the car is locked.

if i was to be in the car and locked myself in (which i tried) and put the key back in and try start it, the car turns off alarm sirens.

then my cars all locked, i go talk to da hot chix.

and all is cool.
