I'm sure most people on here are familiar with the car at the start of transporter 1. my question is regarding the car, when he gets in the car he has a security system with a PIN code which from what i can see, cuts out the power for the car and i was wondering if there if actually such a thing that exists/is available for purchase?

yes, i have one in each of my GTRs, there $300 -$400 fitted and cut three points( same as a normal alarm just with no siren), just not as fancy as the one in transporter just a key pad you enter a code into, some of the WRXs had to have them fitted as factory so they could get insurence, thanks to the ram raiders

The one that was used standard in WRX was provided by Brant, although their newer units have changed and are now essentially a South African immobilizer made by Sanji. Another retailer: http://carboncarsystems.com.au/sanji-zx40-wireless-keypad-immobiliser-p-154.html

They offer three point immobilization, auto-arms itself after you shut off the car, and has a handy valet mode (disables the unit temporarily - if someone drives the car for more than 15 minutes, next time the car is turned off, it automatically re-arms and requires a pin).

It typically is installed to operate completely independently of your regular alarm, giving you an extra layer of security. For the cost, it's probably not bad value in terms of the extra layer of protection.

thanks for all the help, is there any models that go from 0-9 instead of just 1-5, and is there any guides on fitting them?

thanks again.

there are lots better options available, RFID, Biometric ?

most house alarms arm based on 12V , so yes they make keypads with the digits you require. keypads automatic pin point a weak point in the alarm. they can follow the wires right back in ???

magnetic latching relays ?

RFID is 100% hidden. and you can make your car keyless.and just put in a start button..haha the keys stay in your pocket

Bio metric , can be as well.

just depends on your wallet and the skills of the installer?

Actually they cannot follow the wires back to the alarm module with the Sanji model. The wires on the keypad just go to +power and -earth and the communication link between the keypad and the keypad immobiliser module is done via these wires. They are from South Africa and so they have already thought of that about 5 years ago. Autowatch have a new version keypad immobiliser which incorporates a numeric remote control which you enter your pin number into and press send, which disarms the miniature immobiliser. The actual immobiliser is so small it can be concealed within a wiring harness.

Fyi :The sanji alarm is now wireless keypad , because people traced wires back !!!

But like a ATM cash machine I could sit back and use my long range camera lens to watch you input the code since it lights up at night ?? Too easy to get past

Keypad is out of date tech for low cost oem cars

Any decent installer should be able to foil even the best crims by mis information , alarms hooked to nothing ? The real one is hidden behind so many panels and even the keyswitch can be faked ??

And one the pressurize the abs brakes while armed ??

So much is possible it boggles the mind and wallet. Lol

Mind you this isn't a day job to install

    • Kinkstah, no, coilovers aren't illegal, especially as a bolt straight in. The illegal part will be if they're altering suspension geometry beyond factory limits, or the ride height is not legal.   Sounds like the blue slipper just didn't want to deal with any later possibility of mods appearing on the car.
    • The problem has always been that coilovers are able to be adjusted, almost at any time, to be too low. Most people who ever get/got defected for/with coilovers were actually afoul of the minimum ride height rule. So the interpretation by cops/inspectors was always that it is pointless to allow numpty to raise his coilovers and get the car inspected/cleared, then just drop them back down again as soon as they get around the corner from the inspection station.  This led to the interpretation that they were illegal unless rendered such that they can't be adjusted (ie, collars welded to the body, that sort of thing). That may or may not have ever actually been the official line, but I'm pretty sure it's not considered to be a solution these days. Coilovers themselves fall under clause 3.2 b of that manual, because they are an "installation of a variable ride height system" and they don't fit the exclusions in that clause (which point to air springs and other pneumatic adjusters). So, as per previous statements, they require engineering cert to be legal on the road. Once you have such cert, provided you do not adjust them outside the height range covered by the cert, you are OK. Without, you have an unroadworthy vehicle.
    • Here E10 is the cheapest fuel. And general advice is to not use it unless you hate your car. From what I remember it clogs up stuff in the fuel system or injectors?  With US/Canada being E10 across the board, does that mean that all fuel there is terrible?
    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW ) Edit: I checked. They aren't. https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-infosheet-light-vehicle-modifications-manual-suspension-and-ride-height.pdf
