Hey, recently had an Autowatch 446 premium alarm system installed on my 32 gts-t, wondering if anyone has/has had this same or any other Autowatch alarm with a turbo timer? If so what are your thoughts on it?

I have to take it in again to have the turbo timer installed and was wondering if it was worth it? I don't really know why but I'm not huge on the whole turbo timer idea I prefer just letting it idle for a little while I'm still in the car.

Any thoughts / opinions would be great,

Thanks in advance

Turbo timers are a defect, not ADR compliant.

just drive normal for the last few min and use synthetic oils, idle for a min while you gather your stuff and you should be fine. don't flog it then shut it down or the turbo can sludge up from burning oil.

    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
