this is all well and good, but these days most theives look at the front of a house, like the car and just smash inside and grab the keys/alarm remote.

I'd personally just prefer a basic system that will do its job, but have a seperate gps unit tucked away with an internal battery so i can actually find out where my car is so the pricks can die. If someone wants your car bad enough they'll get it, its nice to be able to find them afterwards ;)

The old hidden switch is a goodie... I like the sound also of those new "proximity card lock" things like Mercs etc. use... stays in your wallet, and automatically unlocks the vehicle when you're within a few feet. If it was combined with a well-installed remote alarm/immobiliser, at least then a thief would have to have your keys AND your wallet... and if you lost both of them... well that would be a bad day.

For cars that have the pressure sensor in the seat to know when someone is sitting and activate the seatbelt waning light for that particular seat, you can rig up a nice little timmer kill-switch, pressure sensor must be activated (i.e, sit yo fat arse down) before the car can be started, and once you get out of the car, it trips the sensor, and shuts down similar to a turbotimer, gives you 1or 3 minutes of idle engine before shutting the engine right off.

The only issue with this one, is you need to rig it smart so that sitting down again wont shut the timing off and let the engine run on keys again.

The other issue with this is it would suck royal trying to tune the car, reaching in and turning the key and the car not starting, pure pain in the arse.

Also, no remote start either, as you have not sat in the seat.

Another fancy security feature I encountered while doing some weekend work was a dash switch, you had to bridge the 2 metalic points with the same hand, and it would detect resistance, and if the circuit resistance was within the right margins, the ignition lights would fire up, and you could crank the engine.

This was an issue for me, as I didn't meet the reistance levels, and the mongrel wouldn't let me start, but was easily overcome with a resistor and some wire fromt he tool box (if you knew the resistor requirement and the terminal points to connect to, both of which I was given from the owner, but not many thieves carry resistors).

The old Ciggy lighter circuit is a goodie, as buttons on the dash or surround from the OEM stereo, having to hold a button in while starting the car, or pressing the button to give a timed starting period can help, having an engine kill switch on a timer with the buttons can be fun as well (in the case of carjacking, lean on dash button as you climb out of the car, sets engine to shut off in 60 seconds, sure the car can travela fair way, but when it shuts off, chances are the thieve gets out and runs).

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
