picked up my r33 on thursday and so far so good, i expected alot less from it so im happy, although

im not impressed with the importers, i think it was a good buy.

ive got it insured with jsutcars and it says i need an imobolizer,

just wondering what should i expect to pay for and imobolizer and am i better off getting alarm with it to work out cheaper, i need to get it done asap.

ive been quoted $495 and also ive heard somethign about 3 point imboblizers ect, whats a good one to go with?

congrats man!

on the immobilizer issue - your opening up a massive can of worms. there are tonnes of threads about good and bad ones. You can argue the issue that the cheaper immobilizers are abviously lower quality - thus does not protect your car as much as expensive ones, and brand name immobilizers are easier to bypass because they are so widely used.

At the end of the day the level of your cars security is up to you. Your better of keeping it to yourself so no one knows how far you have gone to make your car safe.

Alot of poeple go for the mongoose immobilisers, and they come in a range of security levels. three point immiblizers are the best i tihnk. And yeah i was lucky to get a qoute less then $500.

Congrats on picking up the r33 sydking.

my fisrt mod after getting mine was an alarm and after reading a couple of recent thefts on the forum i would reccomend getting a decent system.

I had Daniel from Platinum Car Security install mine and he was great-took the time to do it right and the best part is he comes to you which was great. i also thought very well priced considering it takes a while to install. So i would definately receommend him.

http://www.platinumcarsecurity.com/ he is also a sponsor on ns http://nissansilvia.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=365532

cheers rich.

i got the m80s with the motion sensors inside, shock sensors etc and tilt sensors, so if somone wants to jack your car up to take the wheels it'll go off just before the wheel comes of the ground. but yeh dont skimp of the alarm, get a club lock as well just for looks more than anything you wouldnt want to have anything happen to your new car :D enjoy it

its pretty obvious that they're there if your looking through the window, how you gunna disable them without going into the car, as soon as you go into the car the alarm would go off and it'd be just like disabling any other alarm so why are you being a smart ass when all im trying to do is help the guy out. mayby i should take out the flashing red led as well so if someone walks past they might think it doesnt have an alarm and then get a rude shock when they smash my window..........

sorry i didnt realize you knew which one of the skylines in aus mine was shit i'd better watch out, here's a hint its not the car in my profile, that should help you break into my car a little bit more. hmmmm i reckon i should enter in at least which city i live in in my profile so that will help you a bit more, get down off your high horse and put a post in if you think it contributes to the relative topic tool

Just saw this thread - Ease up mate, i was only kidding. I honestly thought you would have just taken a hint and removed the alarm details from your above post!? But hey, each to their own.

To clarify, yes - you can bypass microwave sensors hooked up to an M80, if you really want to scoop that low and attempt to steal someone elses pride and joy. I'm not going to be responsible for educating people how to do it - but it can be done. I actually had one set up in my old car and also had the same alarm, would loved to of explained to you the best way to set, position and place the sensor itself, and also a few things which are almost always bypassed during standard security installs to pretty much ensure you wont get f**ked if someone did try and steal it - but unfortunately, it doesnt look like you want advice. Also, while on topic - a large number of the generic microwave sensors are defective and false alarm a lot - etc, easy fix for these though if you know what you're doing. I have numerous friends who are auto electricians and have a few which specialise in car security, so i guess its natural for a few of their small tricks rub off on to me.

No, I dont know your car - but some theives are experts. This is what they do. For example - its as easy as buying something from you even just on this forum, coming to pick it up, then they follow you home, plot the strike, then perform a few days or months later. I dont know about you, but owning these type of cars, I dont even pull into my street with any other cars in sight, if its busy, I pull over and wait till its silent.

Anyway, if someone did follow me home, i wouldnt want them to know what type of alarm i had installed. If im popping a deal with someone off this forum, I never even bring my car there, I even black out my rego plates in pictures. Call me careful, cautious, vigilant, whatever. But you never know who views what on the internet and why.

I'm here to help, but its a shame that the occasional joke can seriously send people over the edge such as the above.

I'm sure you were just having a bad day and you're not really as immature as that last post makes you out to be.

Cheers.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
