hey guys just want a quick question answered.

i have a turbo timer hooked up to my car and soon to get a alarm. will i need as they say a alarm with turbo timer compatibility? or can i just get this alarm

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Mongoose-M20S-Alarm...1QQcmdZViewItem which which doesn't say it is compatible with turbo timers and it'll be fine? that mongoose is actually the one i want to buy. will i need to buy another one since it doesn't ahve turbo timer compatibility?

either way how does it work? will the alarm without the turbo timer compatibility just lock itself via remote whenever i choose to or will it just not work?

will the turbo timer compatible alarm lock the car automatically straight after the turbo timer shuts the car down?

how does it work for people that know?

thanks

nope look elsewhere. half the stuff that fellow has sold is imported. the alarms are too cheap and I dare say imported. call mongoose in sydney and ask for a priceon that unit. it's well below what I pay.

oh really? aren't mongoose a australian brand alarm nonetheless?

so will i need something compatible with turbo timers to work properly?

need to know how it works so i know what to buy.

how about rhino? theres a rhino gtr alarm that i'm interested in aswell.

well i just need to know how the turbo timer compatibiity works?

because i'm inking of buying a simple alarm that doesn't have turbo timer compatibility.

what will happen? no what i mean?

Jake, the alarm you linked to above wont be insurance approved, it's not using all black wiring.

As for Turbo timer compatible, with the right installation the alarm can be installed with the timer and they can both work together, but it's easier to get an alarm system with inbuilt timer, means the alarm wont have immobiliser over-rides, etc.

B.

the mongoose m60 and m80 both have turbo timer interface, austrailain standard whitch means all black wiring, passive arming and 2 point immobiliser with the m60 and 3 point immobiliser with the m80.

in short for you, when you arm your car with the turbo timer counting down the car is still protected so if someone opens your door whilst car running the motor will shut down and the alarm will sound.

we install mongoose daily and find they are a very good system so we recomend them.

hope that helps

    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.  
    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
