Hi all,

I'll be needing to get an alarm installed when my car arrives. Can anyone recommend a good alarm installer around the inner south of melbourne?

I'm looking at having a Hornet 727T installed to be able to use my OEM key. They would need experience installing into a CAN bus vehicle

Approx pricing would be useful too.

Thanks,

-Max.

Join SAU... Then get cheap installs via a mate of mine who is a club sponsor/supporter :)

He's been in the business for 8-10 years so i reckon he should be right.

Although he is in Deer Park, but the $$ saving is worth it IMO

When your a SAU member how much does he charge? Looking to get a Mongoose M80 or M80G installed when i buy one soon..

Thanks

He supplies and fits his own ADR alarm which has many features, and its less than $350 total.

IMO its not worth the massive $$$ systems, an alarm is ONLY as good as the guy installing it in terms of security and the ability for it to be bypassed etc.

A poor install with a good alarm is easier to steal and a cheaper alarm installed brilliantly :domokun:

For that reason I can recommend stylyn www.stylyn.com

I don't know if they can do what was requested in the original post, but they know their shit when it comes to car alarms. Will cost a bit more than the sponsor special in the vic section (and I can't compare the two, I've only been to stylyn). I payed $549 for Mongoose M80AU installed with certificate etc.

Phat Audio Concepts in braeside ... getting my alarm installed in a week there wif a few goodies as extra deterents .. there a top bunch of guys.. quite down 2 earth and reasonable wif prices. they install alarms from a old claped out capri to new model lambos ...

Im getting a clifford alarm installed with window lift.. no auto engine start as i didnt want it... and im also getting a secondary screamer alarm which is hidden within the interior of the car somewhere with a seperate kill switch.. basically its a deterent to make a thief go deaf if he manages to get into the car....all up im paying $850 which isnt cheap but i want it done right first time.. consider what you pay for your car... its not much 2 have that added feeling of security

But basically they can cater for anyones budget.. give em a call 9580 1282 and ask for Brett as he is the alarm installer

    • OK, Step 3, if you need to remove the valve body, either to replace it, the TCM, or to do a more complete drain.  First, you need to disconnect the TCM input wires, they are about half way up the transmission on the drivers side. One plug and the wires are out of the way, but there is also a spring clip that stops the socket from sliding back into the transmission. On my car the spring clip was easy to get, but the socket was really stuck in the o-ring of the transmission housing and took some.....persuasion. You can see both the plug to remove (first) and the spring clip (second) in this pic Incidentally, right next to the plug, you can see where the casting has allowance for a dispstick/filler which Nissan decided not to provide. there is a cap held on with a 6mm head bolt that you can remove to overfill it (AMS recommend a 1.5l overfill). Final step before the big mess, remove the speed sensor that is clipped to the valve body at the rear of the box.  Then removal of the Valve Body. For this the USDM Q50 workshop manual has a critical diagram: There are a billion bolts visible. Almost all of them do not need to be removed, just the 14 shown on the diagram. Even so, I both removed one extra, and didn't check which length bolt came from which location (more on that later....). Again it is worth undoing the 4 corners first, but leaving them a couple of turns in to hold the unit up....gravity is not your friend here and trans oil will be going everywhere. Once the corners are loose but still in remove all the other 10 bolts, then hold the valve body up with 1 hand while removing the final 4. Then, everything just comes free easily, or like in my case you start swearing because that plug is stuck in the casing. Done, the valve body and TCM are out
    • OK, so if you are either going for the bigger fluid change or are changing the valve body which includes the Transmission Control Module (TCM), first you should have both a new gasket 31397-1XJ0A and a torque wrench that can work down to 8Nm (very low, probably a 1/4 drive one). You can probably get by without either, but I really didn't want to pull it all apart together due to a leak. First, you now need that big oil pan. The transmission pan is 450 long x 350 wide, and it will probably leak on all sides, so get ready for a mess. There are 24x 6mm headed bolts holding the pan on. I undid the 2 rear corners, then screwed those bolts back in a couple of turns to let the pan go low at that end, then removed all the middle bolts on each side. Then, undo the front corner bolts slowly while holding the pan up, and 80% of the fluid will head out the rear. From there, remove the remaining bolts and the pan is off. You can see it is still dripping oil absolutely everywhere...it dripped all night.... I got another couple of litres when I removed the pan, and then another few when I removed the valve body - all up another 4l on top of the 3 already dropped in step 1.
    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
