Just wondering if anyone has any instructions for the factory fitted (I think) alarm for the R33 GTSt.

My car has a red LED to the right of the steering wheel with 'security' above it, and I've managed to turn it on sometimes (starts flashing) and when I open the boot / bonnet / car door and don't put key in the ignition, alarm goes off.

But I've only been able to turn it on by accident, anyone know how to actually turn it on / off / etc?

Thanks.

It was a factory option for the Series II r33. When you lock the doors via the keyless button it locks all the doors and activates the factory alarm. The security light on the dash will then begin to flash.

It comes on everytime I lock the doors with the remote.

Yeah I've got a Series 2.

That keyless button, is that the one on the drivers side door controls (top left) or do you have a key with that? I only got one key with no buttons.

Nah its on the key. Ive got the normal door key (black top), normal boot key (silver all over) and then a remote with 4 buttons on it.

1 = unlock doors

2 = lock doors

3 = turn on interior light

4 = nothing (possibly aux)

Looks like I'll call Nissan to find out. I only got the black key.

Getting another alarm installed today because insurance wants an Aust. Approved one, feels like a bit overkill but then again if its there why not use it?

Thanks all!

I'm with JustCars and they said the car has to have an alarm which meets the Australian Standards (AS/NZS 3749.1:2003) and they told me that basically it has to be a 2 point immobiliser and installed by an approved installer. He didn't know about whether the factory alarm would be sufficient..

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
