was at a friends house round the block parked outside of booragoon primery school last night reversed parked in between two of my mates commodores and went inside.

Came out about 2:30 to see a guy running off further down the hill from where i was parked. thought that was weird! went to where i left my car and it wasn't their! somehow they managed to get it out of the parking spot get stuck on full lock and roll down the hill about four spaces and park perfectly next to another car facing inwards!! and they ripped out half the pannel under the ignition and only nicked off with 2CD's.

I worked out how they got in. make sur the passenger door is closed properly befor you lock the car!

few of my mates found the guy and followed him into wireless hill but we couldn't catch him.

So whats the best alarm/immoboliser/pitbull in the back seat i can get? and where in perth can i get it?

cheers and sorry for the long post

Damn dude very lucky!

i would have to recomend the auto watch blue line series.

it has a shock sensor and ultrasonics included, two kill points ( you can kill ignition and starter or fuel pump ).

if you do happen to leave your door open slightly and you arm the alarm it will beep in a way to let you know that it has detected the door open, or your boot or your bonnet.

I have hooked mine up in conjunction with a window closure module so when you arm the alarm you can send the windows up if you leave them down.

With the r32's you will need to have a central locking motor installed into the drivers door so it can trigger the passengers door to lock.

I recomend if you dont have a turbo timer installed get one fitted while you get the alarm fitted, that way you can alarm your car and still leave it timing down.

I recomend Alberts car stereo in morley.

speak to Grant or Dan, they will look after you

also anouther bit of advice, ask your insurance company if you will receive a reduction in your premium with the instalation of an alarm.

also sorry for the long post:bonk: haha

cheers

5 of my mates have that Autowatch too, 3 of them have window windups and 2 of the 3 have boot release also. very useful :cheers:

Have you heard of the module for the auto watch that u can install, when u arm it it says "system armed" and when u disarm it it says "system disarmed"? kinda funny at first but the joke kinda wears out :cheers: ...

sorry to hear it but at least you still have your car :)

don't understand these people. i had my valve caps stolen off my car (shiny titanium ones) in hilarys on the weekend, pissed me off but at least they didn't touch my rims or anything else... as far as i know, i only noticed this morning.

i feel violated enough, i'm sure you feel worse.

cyclops (Dymatec or something)

also do one, basically has all the same features.

I have glass break sensor, knock sensor, boot and bonnet sensors, u can also get ultrasonics and wat not, but i decided not to.

I also have the auto window winder aswell.

And Yas, my car does that. :spank:

Ive got a cyclops cat 4 alarm 2...with microsensors.

You can also adjust the sensitivity.

(so it doesnt go off like mine when a leaf rubs against your car, haha)

Here is a link to silviawa. Raheem is the man to see. Done alarms for many people i know.

Installing a turbo timer isn't the best idea if you want better security. I think they're able to hack into the ignition easier.

I have a Black Widow alarm in mine with shock sensor.. only been in a few months and working well.. but now I wish that I just spent more and bought a paging remote.. I was literally 2mins walk down the road and kinda in view of the car and I didn't see the shock sensor going off when someone reversed into my parked car recently. They didn't hit it very bad so it would have only beeped & flashed at them, but had they hit it worse I don't know if I would have heard the alarm from there anyway. Anyway the alarm beeped at me when I returned so I knew something had happened which is a good thing I guess. That alarm cost me about $350 incl install.

The fact is if someone really wants to steal it, they will, there's not all that much you can do. There are alarms available with GPS tracking, which seems like an excellent idea, but then recently there was a very expensive yacht that was stolen from melbourne & last reported heading to Hobart by the GPS system.. and I believe never recovered....

Most alarms are just a fancy keyless entry.

Make sure you get it installed by a professional installer.. don't get it done by some crap franchise, we've had problems with the alarm on our 32 for months.

Essential: black wire, battery backup, shock sensor, all opening points covered bonnet/boot etc, 2point, tilt sensor, insurance!

Recommend: remote pager (covering a good distance), 3point immobiliser (tho some people have problems with the fuel pump immobiliser)

And anything else I've forgotten :)

Hope thats of help

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.

      AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.

      As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.

      spot the stagea

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.

      Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
