Hi I'm new to this web site as i have just brought a r33. Just wondering if anyone knew about this system as i'm about to buy it. if anyone has one that would be great to know. Its a SPY 2 Two Way LCD Car Alarm with Remote Start Engine System

Thanks

Cheap crap from ebay buy something with aussie standards, I just got a Mongoose M80Am. Dont worry about lcd remotes, remote engine starts there just gimmicks look for 3 point imobalizer, all black wiring and that aussie standard for insurance purposes.

Thanks for the fast replay i will have a look around. Do you know any place with a good price?

Yeah mate just look around, do i know a place ? would help if you had where you lived and for a good price the basic price alarm are like $400 installed then with that you can hook up extras like dual microwave sensor, tilt sensor, glass break sensor you can do it over a period of time or if you have the money just blow it at once :D

i know a fool that got an ebay alrm with engine start function in an auotmatic, installed it himself bla bla bla, long story short he left the car in drive with the hand brake half up, started the car next morning and it rolled through his garage door into the house..... useless things unless you have half a brain and wire the thing properly lol

Sorry I live in Adelaide

Hey Adelaide boy!!! Where in Adelaide, Im also in Adelaide.

My friend actually has one of these 'spy' branded alarms and it works surprisingly well despite what most migh think. remote start and turbo timer works perfectly too afaik, i was almost going to buy one but i am not sure about the immobilser side of things with this unit....

hey dude i boughted skyline r33 series 2 and it has a remote start but its not working the previews owner told me something wrong with the wire's any one knows about remote start pls help me thanks advance

had it in my both my previous cars, worked flawlessly without a single fault.

never installed the remote start as it was pointless but the remote is a handy thing when your alarm goes off it vibrates.

My mate hasn't had any problems either. Any idea how many points of immobilization this kit has? and if it meets australian standards? (for insurance purposes)

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
