Hi everyone,

I'm going to have a R34 these days and currently looking for a good alarm for it.

It has to have these functions:

1. remote engine start

2. turbo timer function

3. automatic window closing when I turn off the car (maybe optional...)

4. everything else a reliable alrm should have...... (have to...)

5. not more than $500 include install (have to...)

I was told mongoose M80 meet almost of them, also autowatch is good as well. Is there anyone can give me suggestions???

BTW I'm in SA.

Thanx for helping me guys!

Mongoose M80 are really good alarms i have one in my R33 Installed myself and i have a window lift modual and added on to it and a pager module added onto it aswell and never had any problems, the New ones now come with turbo timer built into it so that saves you some cash on haveing to by an aftermarket turbo timer, and as for remote start its not really recomended cause they an cause all kinda of problems with you insurence and saftey i have heard some story's of people getting hit by a car that has remote start in it. But deffiently look into a Mongoose M80-au or the M80-MU (i think its mu its the one with microwave sensors in it), if you get it with window lift module you will probs be looking at the $700 Fitted mark as the alarm itself comes in at about $599 fitted with the window module at around $100 addon and and thigns like that

Hi mate, thanx for u reply! I have heard M60 before as well, do u know any differents between M60 and M80?

i havnt delt much with the m60's but if you goto www.mongoose.com.au it will give you all the info on them and functions they do and do not do. from memory i think the m60 only has 2 points of immobilisation were the m80 has 3.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
