I have had a code pad in my car for 4 years,

I cannot fault the security it provides, and the fact you have to type in the code everytime is not annoying,

as it is peace of mind.

Highly recommend getting one,

Try true blue alarms

the ones ive read about use the exisiting one.

Just works together with the alarm.

SO im guessing pressing the remote turns off the alarm, sensors and imb. However if you turn on the car without entering in the keypad after i think 5 seconds the car will stall out.

But im sure theres many ways of doing it. For example making the keypad responsible for turning of the imb. So u dont enter in the code the car wont start.

Im pretty sure i saw a link to buying these things... ill try and find it. If i can ill edit this post and put the link.

EDIT: Yep im cool! i found it. Cost 125!. This one looks like it comes with its own imb. circuit. and they are quoting 60 dollars to install... too bad there over east... Group buy anyone? ;)

A quick explanation....

This system will work with any vehicle, any alarm, even vehicles with turbo timers!!!

Basically the system will automatically arm 1 min after the ignition is switched off.

You can also have it set up for Anti-Hyjack mode where if you open the drivers door (even if the cars running) if you do not enter the pin number within 5 mins it will kick the immobiliser in and shut down the car. So if someone pulls you out of the car and drives off, they will only get as far as 5 mins down the road and then they will not be able to start the car again unless they have your pin number B) which is pretty dam cool.

Yea i currently have the Autowatch Alarm system with Immobiliser, motion sensor, etc etc, So How much does it Cost to get one, have it installed, were is it to be located? and where can i get this done :( kthnxbai

Got mine done thru San Diablo alarms but i think he's sold his business already. It's a backyard job so wouldn't really recommend. Guy never fixed an alarm for a R34 Series 2 and blamed my car was a bitch to install - pfffttttt talk about professionalism. Took longer than expected and he overcharged me as well.

Would advise you guys to heard to Alberts Myaree. Went to there to sort out a initial wiring problem from the first installation. Forgotten the guy's name but the guy who attended to me is the only alarm specialist there and he knows his shit !!

Total for the alarm, sensors, keypad and boot release comes from the first install to approx $650 if i'm not mistaken. Had to spend another $80 4 months later to replace a module - the San Diablo guy installed the module where rain water will run thru hence it started to give out false alarm (wat a noob !!)

Having said that, if you already have an autowatch alarm adding the keypad will prob. be less than $200. Just ask around.

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
