My car came with one of these when I bought it. Personally, I am not sure how exactly it's wired in, but my mirrors do not automatically fold in when the car is locked - not a massive issue as you can fold the mirrors in manually with a flick of a switch.

Does anyone know if this would be considered an Australian standard of immobilizers? If not, I'd need to change it in order to comply with my insurance too :\

I have one of these also; it was satisfactory for Shannons, but if in doubt, go & see a specialist like Carbon Car Systems. They have products for all budgets, & are absolutely no nonsense.

or something like the mighty ducks where the car talks..

Viper Alarms have/had a model that did this, a booming voice would advise 'Viper system armed' or 'Step away from the vehicle' only issue is this is very entertaining for kids who would mess with/throw rocks at the car in order to get it to talk :rolleyes:.

I have also been thinking of alarms/immobilisers - sounds like alot of us are!

I rang carbon car systems after reading what members have suggested. I got quoted $520 installed a by a "auto parts store" for a basic sort of system.

Carbon quoted me the exact same system for $375 fitted. Even if i have to put $50 petrol in im still ahead.

Will be getting done by carbon for sure!

Yep, this thread has inspired me to up the security on the stag. I think i will be contacting carbon very shortly. I'm thinking about getting a two way alarm so i can go kick the persons ass when they touch my car. the just aren't enough laser beams

Also the bonus of a more reliable door lock button is a big bonus. My key button sucks!!

Awesome news that your pride and joy is back. Get that security system fitted asap mate, all black wiring.

If you are feeling keen you can also install a GPS tracking module buried deep under the dash with internal battery backup.

Dont worry alex im sure many bowling clubs nowadays have CCTVs cameras to keep that murano of yours safe. Dont want those bowls hats or your disabled (from the neck up) parking permit to end up in the wrong hands!

God only knows what will happen!

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
