Hey all. I was thinking of getting new car alarm installed, just wanted to see what experiences you guys have had with different car alarm systems. Any particular one that is one notch above the rest? Or is any with a siren and immobiliser enough? Cheers.

most insurance companies require you to have an Australian standards immobolizer fitted with a skyline.

funny enough.. a lot of the expensive brand named alarms and immobs arent covered by Australian Standards.

i settled for just a Worlock 3 point immob (no gay alarm that goes off with loud cars drive past) on mine. 300 all up including install from JB. back wires and cover my Just Car insurance needs.

if your not over fussy and dont have like a 20g stereo or valubles in your car constantly id just settle for a basic requiement system.

good luck

3 point+ black wiring, insurance approved and works with turbo timers.

I have the same one on my GTR, works with the central locking easily, has Pager attachment, plus 3 point immobilzer ignition, line, cutoff

Where can I cop one of these mongoose systems?

Just interested to see if any attempted break-ins were actually foiled by a mongoose alarm?

They dont seem to have the same model as I do on their site anymore, but then again my car alarm is around 3-4 years old now.

Ring up and find out - details are in the members section.

Alarms are much of a muchness if you ask me.

You can spend $800 or $250 on the alarm, its the way its installed that will dictate how hard the car is to steal :laugh:

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
