Could you explain why it cannot be done if you have an immobilizer? what must be done different to get it to work?

I just got my Greddy turbo timer......but waz unsure where to get it installed as i have an immobliser (so cant DIY).......i know car toys can do it 4 $95 but dat seems pretti expensive..........do u guys know any1 who could do it 4 a better price.......

                                                                                                          Cheers

Will do it for $45 live in the hills. just out of interest what sort of Immobiliser is it and is it a basic t timer or one with Rpm and 0 - 400 time etc.

If youve got an Immob you have to wire the timer up so that the car still runs when armed but when timer cuts out can't be started.

care to explain how I can do it? as I recently had a alarm installed and now my basic turbo timer no longer works presumably due to the imobilizer?

I'm planning on hooking up a Greddy full auto turbo timer soon.

i think you would need to hook up a relay or two?

whe the turbo timer is running the relay would cut points of the imobiliser once the turbo timer cuts the engin the relay will connect the imobiliser points...

this might make it easyer for somone to find the imobiliser wires and knock off the car though....

If it works ill post up what i did if you like.

Hi Adam,

That would be great, as I'd like to get my TT working again .. Its annoying that I have to drive like a sissy for a few k's to cool down the turbo now .. :P

Its easy enough to put the tt in with an immobiliser you just have to hook it up to the ignition after the cut for the immob. this way the can can still run but only on tt hope this makes sense. Also if your alarm has a ignition sense you should wire it to accesories so that you can arm the system while the tt is in.

I was actually thinking that too, but thanks for advising ..

I will give it a go on the weekend.

    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat 
    • I saw your intro update, are you sure you've actually had a starter motor failure? You mention it could be the alarm causing it. I'm assuming you've got a no start issue, but what are the exact symptoms, as there could be a few reasons it has stopped wanting to start.
