wants to have GPS, Alarm, Immobiliser. Would like to track through Internet as well as smartphone.

Had a viper alarm fitted. Immobilised, microwave-sensor, shock and glass. Cost $900 including install. Would cost more to include remote start, window or boot operation but I dont need that shit.

You can d/l an iPhone app that tracks your car, locks, unlocks and can start it but you have to pay subscription, didn't bother with that either, bit of a gimmick. Plus, if I lose my phone I don't want some prick starting or tracking my car.

If its the group buy model from sa (jaycar)

I wouldnt use it , it has restrictions that may limit the ability to track the car in certain areas

Hardware is substandard for aussie conditions

The full unit ebay options work fine in most cases

Similar to mongoose model with external gps and cell antennas and alloy case

The viper one has benefits and drawbacks like the fee for monitoring access and upfront cost is a bit high

Software wise the ebay one works fine and is accurate in limited cell areas and inside brick buildings that i tested

And can be used on most if not all smart phones without added software

      Hahahahah, look, your not wrong 😂😂 and thank you brother 🙏🏼 jokes aside, I haven't driven the car in 6+ years and it's like I'm starting all over again, and furthermore the car is wayyyy more powerful and it's characteristics are night and day different now compared to what I remember. So I'm slowly easing myself back into the groove, the car is literally scaring me a bit tbh.....it feels like it has 200hp more than it does on paper and responds like a cammed Ls v8, and-some! 😅 every single bit of throttle pedal travel and input has instant response all the way to the floor, zero flat spots or labouring feelings, it's nuts. Im shooketh, go easy on me hahahaha or don't 🤙🏼😊

      If the house has ever been sold before too, they have photos from that etc.

      I used to do that, but then I got savvy. The benefits of having your phone photos geotagged outweigh the negatives. I just don't publish any photo straight off the phone/out of the gallery/off google photos, etc. If I'm going to use a photo, other than for SMSing to fam, I will always open it on the computer, copy it/otherwise edit it and save down without the original metadata, before using it. For example, posting photos of my engine bay into a thread on here, to show someone a plug or something - I will just screen-cap the section I want to use and paste that section direct from the clipboard into the post. No metadata goes along with.

      Yes, so it won't work for places with no photos on the net. I would have said that there are no photos of the inside of my house on the net, but....then I realised that my kids' parties would have had bazzillions of photos of the living spaces, kitchen etc put on insta and other shitmedia. So... you can see how insidious it is.
