Hey guys, Wanting to get my car alarm installed, im on the gold coast, i dont really have the time to take the car to a workshop at the moment nor do i really trust them.

there was a user on here that had his own business and that was based in brisbane, i cant remember his name nor any threads he has posted in... but he came out to you...

would like to try and find this user again OR do any of you suggest someone that i can talk to about installing this?

Thanks

CJ

It's a ball ache but it will be worth it ;) when some ghetto rat tries to take it and fails it will make it all worth it:)

There's this thing called a train, apparently you can catch it and it'll take you from Brisbane to the Gold Coast and other various locations. Crazy I know, exactly what I thought.

haha anyway on a serious note, I was chattin to Chris not long ago and I'd have to do the same thing and drop it up there, can't wait till i finish uni so I can go full time and have enough money! When's the car going up, and how much?

Also how much to get the guards rolled? my fronts need it bad!

My new clutch was slipping so i couldnt even get the car power tuned....

so in my frustration i ordered a new twin plate clutch and bought a new car! :@

wondered what happened today. I gto the phone call mid arvo and folllowed most of it. now it makes more sense.

to those asking for costs : best not to. I work on a car by car basis and as EVLWOG (hi laurie!) will tell you with his I seriously DID NOT FK around with it when I did it.

I realise this thread is a bit old now, but I still wanted to add my 2c.

I just had an alarm installed in my R32 GTST by Chris at Audio Express, I can't express how happy I am with the job done.

Not only did he install my alarm PROPERLY, he also managed to fix the reception on my stereo, ripped out the "baby turbo timer" that came with the car, since the alarm now handles this, tidied up the god-awful install job that was done on my e-Boost 2 controller, removed a bunch of wiring that went to nothing (last owner must have decided to remove whatever it was, but left the switches/wiring behind), he re-used some existing components from a previous alarm after testing them to be sure they worked fine (saving me money) and even tightened up the after market shifter nob that I had been too lazy to fix.

On top of all of that, each time I called him with some random question about the system, etc, he was always happy to provide answers.

So a big +1 to Chris at Audio Express, I can't recommend him highly enough.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.

      Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.

      They have said food will be limited. Mainly meat pies and sausage rolls from memory. But they have a coffee van!
