So I'm going to need a security system for my new car. I know next to nothing about them, other than the few things I have read on here.

What alarm systems do you guys have in your Skylines, if any and are there any I should check out/avoid?

Also, I read that recently a bunch of the Melbourne guys paid for Chris Rogers to come down and do some installs for them as well as supply the alarm systems. Is there anyone interested in doing this again? PM me if you are, and I will start a topic in Group Buys and contact Chris and Lifted (the bloke who organised the last lot of installs).

This is something nobody should discuss on a public forum. Any decent brand will do.

It's the quality of installation that matters. Hell, a $150 system with a $700 install will stop damn near anyone without access to a flat bed truck.

I believe the man himself will confirm this :yes: (his rates are more reasonable than this of course)

Do you offer cheaper systems Chris? I enquired about the previous round but budget doesn't stretch that far

The extra cost he warrants is definitely worth it imo...wouldn't want him to cheap out on quality just to save a few dollars.

My custom job that finished recently with him (cos them Melbourne boys took priority :down:) cost just north of $1k. Was tempted to go a few hundred more for the 'watertight' treatment but felt it was overkill for a car like mine.

He also gave me some free stuff like a covering of concrete dust so I've now got the matte paint job I've always wanted :blush:

Oops, didn't think about that, lol. I'm guessing I should avoid JB Hi Fi install jobs? Allow me to re-phrase, then. What exactly should I look for in a system? ADR compliance is pretty much required, but are there any other features I should think about?

ADR , tracking option and someone that can install . $5 jb installs are not the go, forget viper products unless thatcham is mentioned.

Correct. Done properly with a decent unit flatbed will be the only way it moves.

Yours wont move in a hurry , we both know why. Countermeasures on countermeasures , the trunk pop went over well too!

    • I can ship Nismo floor mats to you: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/nismo-floor-mats-for-skyline-r33-bcnr33-stagea-wgnc34?_pos=1&_sid=9278c1467&_ss=r  
    • Here's the link: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6642/misc/G49?frame_no=WGNC34-137122 What you think about it? The same product i found on nengun: https://www.nengun.com/oem/parts/40567/MiPwn5qAMfCfmpxHNDnwn5q9MDAx8J-QiW9sZC1qcC0xMTAtRzQ5LS0wMDE/Floor+Carpet+%2F+Mat+2/0688339eba149c19 Bot i have spoken to 😅 ensured me, that mats are 100% original, oem product. I have my doubts. I also heard what you mentioned, that nengun often offers items that are actual not available... On the other hand mats i found on japanese yahoo or ebay are in poor condition and still quite expensive so i'd rather wait for some better offers. My location - Poland. We literaly don't have ANY market for used Stagea parts so need to search outside Europe.
    • You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not
    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
