If you want a quality job then, as above, Chris Rogers from Audio Express is your man. Remember that an alarm is only as good as the install.

I'm assuming that the OP means he can't afford the time, or that the car can't be moved without a tow truck or something, otherwise import ownership isn't going to be fun lol.

HaHa Thanks for the replys guys !!

Oh, I will quickly explan what is going on, I purchased a skyline off a dealer. ( I think I got good deal out of it haha)

She is a beauty, and i would like to get alarm installed while the dealer is organising rego.. and etc, getting few other things done on the car as well so I would like someone to go to the dealer's garage. otherwise i have to arrange a transport somehow..

by the way. spoke to Chris this arvo, he no longer does the mobile jobs...

Sounds like he is the bloke to speak to about these things but yeah.. any 1 else?

Another vote for Chris here.

Just wait until you have the car. I think you're crazy for leaving a car you've already purchased at the dealer though. Check things haven't gone missing after the fact.

may not be easy, but I'd make the effort to visit him, you won't regret it!!

he's supported SAUQLD for year and will do a great job for you.

Oh I forgot to mention in my post above...

(Didnt think I would need to after the responce already)

Chris honestly (100%) is second to none...

He will never put less than his best into ever job and I cant say that about many people...

He truely is the best in the biz...

I can pretty much confirm this 100%, I had an A/C Circutboard fry on the day he installed my alarm, even though it was completely unrelated he went out of his way to fix it for me, and in the end we got a new circuitboard for a steal and had it working again.

He could of said, "Hey, not my problem" but no, he helped me out and dedicated a whole day to fixing the problem, I cannot stress how professional and meticulous he is in his work.

If you want a good installation you go to Chris Rogers!

P.S. Chris if you're reading this, the A/C is working perfectly, hasn't skipped a beat, currently at workshop getting Motec M400 fitted and final tune :P

gary,

ta! I was going to give you a call on that. good to hear that its behaving itself.

KSJ602,

I do dealer work but thats it.(who has the car btw?) in regard to dropping the car off - I do pickup/drop off with customers a fair bit. can do teh same with cars but prefer not to if I can avoid it.

I'm not one to totally strip a car (and I do.) in the middle of someone's front yard and then cop bad weather. the alarm installs I do take on average of 4-5 hours and by the end of it you wont see where I have been.

in regard to doing onsite small stuff (radio fits and the like.) I still do that.

pear,

lost count on how many years I have been a SAU club member. I do know that almost every key event I have donated something.

HaHa Thanks for the replys guys !!

one quick point - trade plate. (and I do have one specifically for this purpose.)

sorry mate, typo above - 'year' should have read YEARS!!

and yes, many skyline owners have benefited from your prizes/donations to the club!!!! cheers mate!

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
