does anyone know where i can get a Cheap immobilser installed?

a very cheap one as i am planning on getting an expensive one soon when i get enough cash.

the problem is, i bought an r33 from a dealer and it was getting compliance done when i went to have a look at it and dint pay attention at immobiliser coz i was more interested in checking out the mechanical side of the car and body lol. i checked the whole car out and its perfect. only thing i realised is that it does not have immobilser and i am not sure what will happen when i take the transfer papers.

does anyone know where i can get a cheap one installed ASAP?

what happens if they noticed i havent got a immobilser installed? do i have to go through the pits or somethin after getting one installed?

cheers guyz

love u all :D

As soon as you submit the transfer papers you will receive an "Immobiliser Offence" letter in the mail. You have 3months to get an immobiliser installed on the car, so don't stress you got plenty of time.

Then after you have had the immobiliser installed and filled in an "Immobiliser Statutory Declaration" form (link http://www.dpi.wa.gov.au/mediaFiles/lic_mr191.pdf), you will then receive the transfer invoice for payment of stamp duty.

As for who does the immobiliser installs i wouldnt have a clue :down: lol

go back to the dealer and ask him to install one...

its illegal to sell a car without one.

Did you get this from over East like you were mentioning a while ago?

Eastern States do no require an immobiliser, but here it is a legal requirement for sale and you can't go over the pits without one.

Both of you are wrong - it is not illegal to sell a vehicle in Western Australia without an immobiliser.

If the vehicle is less than 25 years old it must have an immobiliser fitted to it by law, however if for some reason it does not have an immobiliser, it is the PURCHASERS responsibility to install an immobiliser within 3 months of the vehicle being transferred into their name.

Vehicles 25years or older are exempt from having immobilisers and so are vehicles over 4.5 tone Gross Vehicle Mass aswell as Motorcycles.

I should know this, i work at with the Dept of Transport Licensing Services :down:

Sorry for resurrecting an old topic. I'm going through the same process at the moment and wanted to know if these laws still apply. In other words, can i transfer the car into my name without an immobiliser and get one installed within 3 months later?

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.

      So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
