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

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/

      Blue slip

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.

      Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.

      Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.

      Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
