I have a digital autowatch alarm on my car and apparently you can hook up all sorts of crap to it....

i have a spare button and i want to hook up an engine start onto it and on the other button which currently locks the doors and arms the alarm...i want it to put the windows up at the same time...

apparently this can all happen....but who do i get to do it??

or is it fairly simple...and i can do it myself....anyone else had this done?

by the way i know the start feature is illegal, but as i only drive on closed circuit roads and race tracks then it doesnt matter :P

yeah fane, i know a guy who installs autowatch systems and he can wire up all the above that you mentioned. and more.

only downside he is in wangara. but WELL worth a nice 40 min drive to do it i rekon. Im not sure if u could do it yourself. i think its a lil more complex. but yeah he can make it so when alarm is activated the windows will go up. he can make it so when you start the car by remote it will put windows down etc. (if i remember right...)

but yeah.

pretty fancy stuff he can do with it... (he has his autowatch in his car hooked up to a mobile phone, so he can call his car and arm it over the phone, he has done many mad things with his alarm system.)

bad news, but apparently you can only get the start feature on an auto car. :)

i still want the windows to go up when i lock it tho i'll have to take it up and show the guy....i think autoworx put in the alarm i'll give them a ring aswell and ill give you an update cam... :P if anyone knows of anyone with the start feature on a manual let me know :)

thats what i thought... but he said nah you cant do it on a manual...and i said ohhh ok crap and he goes ohhh well we will have a look at it.... if it wasnt all the way in wangara it would be different...

i'll be able to find someone that will able to do it for me surely... :P

Woohoo! sucked in Manual boys :P sorry been waiting for something cool you can do with an auto car you cant do with a manual!

and they said the window lift hook up is $125, and he wont hook up the remote start because its illegal anyone know of any other places that may do it?

but at least i know where i can get the window lift hooked up... :P awesome!!

I saw a place called "Downunder Mufflers" on the corner of Scarb Bch Rd and Loftus St that has an Autowatch dealer sign out the front. These guys used to do a heap of compliancing work and specialise in imported cars apparently.

I was gonna take my Autowatch to em coz my central locking has never worked since I picked the car up and I never whinged at the time... silly me.

We at Action Alarms situated in Osborne Park are Autowatch dealers and can do the power window lift for you. $125 for the job is a very good price too, so I wouldn't want to better it.

Remote start is possible, but illegal! Is your car road registered? If not we might have a look at it.

Operating the alarm by mobile phone and or being called by your car if the system is triggered etc is also possible but not cheap. The pager option is a bit more affordable, but not as cool.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
