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?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).

      EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
