Morning guys,

Just wondering if someone can recommend a good workshop/ auto electrician in Canberra that can install a Viper alarm into my car- hopefully someone who has dealt with R33's before.

I currently have a Brant alarm in my car and it is absolute rubbish- i ordered a Viper system to replace it with and would like to get it installed ASAP

(The immobiliser has left me for dead more times than i can remember!)

Thanks in advance!

Hope you obtained the Viper 855XV

It's the only one which has received Aust Certified Approval (according to some insurance companies) - whereas, other models still await certification up till a couple of months ago.

I don't need you to reply to this on an open forum.

#855XV is one of the best tho'

If you have had a turbo timer installed AFTER youtr Brant alarm it can make things a bit screwey...

Make sure you specify to the installer if a timer is installed, and what features etc you want straight from the start... altering parameters later on has potential to leave you stranded...

Thanks guys :)

Ive been doing a bit of research on the forums (since my car has an idle problem too) and sadly it seems like my alarm might not be the culprit for my car starting troubles.....

Ive found a few articles that suggest that an old fuel filter, dirty air regulator, atmospheric BOV, ageing coilpacks, dirty AAC Valve could all be attributing to this.

Just ordered a plumb back BOV and will be buying a new fuel filter (Probably from Repco) for a bit of DIY this weekend- but it looks like i'll be spending a bit of money on the car these next few weeks

in order to get it going reliably :(

Arghhhhh!!!

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
