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

mongoose m80au

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:

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
