yup, sure is. get a mongoose M80 series alarm. australian standards, 3 point immobilizer circuts, black wiring harness, you can option things like window windup modules, siren and chirping when locking/unlocking, and it comes with an onboard turbo timer.

best alarm out for such a desirable car.

+1 for the m80 :D

The most important thing to remember is, do not skimp on the install!!! It doesn't matter how good your alarm is, if it's installed poorly you have just wasted your money.

Where abouts do you live? then we can recommend you a good installer.

Guido: I assume you're from Brisbane after seeing a few of your post. Give Chris Rogers a call at www.audioexpress.com.au . He'll most likely recommend autowatch for you. I got the M80 (forgot which exact model) at that time and got an autoelectrician to hoook it up for me. Everything works fine and its slightly cheaper than what Chris quoted for the Autowatch (both brands are Australian standard complied) but I'm not very happy with the detection range. If I'm 5-10metres away, it will not sense it at all (just shits when it comes to sensing range). For the amount that I'm saving (around 200), I would opt for tha Autowatch if I were to have it done again. Unless you're feeling rich, then get the gps tracking ones.

$50 alarm for a $35k car- not really.

give me a call if you want it done PROPERLY. 90% of people toss the alarm under the column and in doing that I can take teh car in 30 sec and drve off. seen PLENTY of crap jobs over hte years and have fixed quite a few more. probably the reason my name pops up so often.

currently I'm one of the few people modding the R35 electrically and those guys are quite picky on who they trust with their car.

details are in my sig.

    • Thanks to @V35_Paul there is an oem stereo available on gumtree, but the fascia is slightly different. It has a flip up screen as opposed to my pop up screen. Am I able to disconnect the radio/cd player from the fascia to use it on mine?    
    • Had to google what a quart is lol.. so rough as guts a litre. That's a bit excessive, also what oil weight are you running? The whole steam cleaning idea isn't too far fetched either. Maybe as you suggested, turn off the WMI (assuming your Kebabtech pulls timing, boost, etc.) and run it for a bit and see if there are any noticeable changes in spark plug colouring.
    • Pretty simple question. I was about to put the transmission back in and thought I pretty much had it lined up when I noticed it seems like the pressure plate isn't flat. I was pretty careful when undoing the bolts both during initial disassembly for cleaning and when torquing them up for installation so this is pretty discouraging. I'm not sure if I accidentally bumped the pressure plate with the input shaft and bent it somehow or if it just showed up this way. Is it possible that there's just something obvious I'm not doing correctly? I'm pretty sure I was extremely careful to make sure the friction discs were seated correctly in the hub, everything lined up, flywheel torqued according to sequence, the little springs all sitting correctly in their seats, etc.  What's the play here? Do I jump straight to a new pressure plate?
    • OK. I can see that being the case. But if you live in the land of "only switching between 4.08, 4.11, 4.36" like most Skyliners, then you never encounter it. Now I perhaps understand why the crownwheel is thicker on some of the smaller numerical ratio diffs. The two stubs being the same (unequal) lengths and just swapped side to side between the different cases is a new one to me. I'm hating Nissan R200s more than ever now.
    • Reason I say this is I have seen broken ones, in drift, drag and even behind a stock Z. I do appreciate most of the time its the synchro's that go.   Trouble with quoting HP is it doesn't really say how strong the box is.  I've not seen many CD00X box's make it past a mid 9(150mph) I have seen about a stock R33 RB25 box's run a 9 too, they all go boom at some point though.   Another clue is they make gearsets for CD00X box's too, wouldn't be a market if they didn't break or have a limit people are going past.   I totally agree it is a strong box, just have to weigh up the true total cost of the conversion vs rebuilding with a good gearset.
