Hey people, am currently trying to find out information regarding what the best alarms are to have installed.

I'm after one which has a Keypad and is atleast 3-point immobiliser.

Could you please recommend some to me, as well as sites/locations in sydney (probably on the north shore) where I could get them installed.

Any information would be great, i've tried searching, didn't find a huge amount though.

Thanks,

quicktrack

Quicktrack dont have any cover outside Sydney metro .

Ezitrak is the way to go and you can monitor it yourself , the only cost is a sim card and the phone call when you want to monitor it .

Only sydney metro dude as soon as you go out of sydney no cover .

ezitrak works on gps to lacate the car and gsm to call you , as long as it is above ground you know where is is , if it goes underground it gives the last known location .

I have had several cars with q/t and i still have an sti with q/t ( not connected ) , i installed ezitrak in it .

So I need a mobile + sim card, what stops a thief from ripping out the mobile phone - out of interest..

Keypad is probably more of a deterent.. means if someone steals my keys they can't just unlock/disarm my car and drive off in it..

What's the price of quicktrak and ezitrack - for the unit and than for installation..

Need to get this organised soon.. put a deposit down for the car.. woot...

Nothing will stop the thief from ripping it out if the can find it , just like nothing will stop them from ripping the keypad immobiliser if they find it .

As soon as someone opens the door of your car , it will call you and tell you " i have detected an intruder " and give some options .

If they start the car it will tell you so , it will give you the location and you can shut the engine down on them as well .

If you get carjacked give them the car with the keys and as soon as they go away you shut the engine on them .

If you forget the lights on as soon as the battery drops voltage it will call you to tell you " low voltage " then when it drops more it will call you again to say " low votage on main battery switching to backup battery "

If they deside to tow the car , even if they dont open any doors as soon as the car moves it will call you to tell you its moving , it will give you the direction its heading the location and the speed its traveling .

As you can see it's pointless paying close to $1 k to get just an alarm fitted when you can have this for not that much more !

Ezitrak is about $12-1300 fitted in your car if you want to monitor it yourself .

$1200 - $1300.. hmm interesting.. well goto say, does do a huge number of different functions.

At the moment though I don't think I have quite that amount of $$$'s, but is something that I might look into in the future..

If someone ripped off the keypad, wouldn't it disable it completely.. otherwise.. really.. it would defeat the purpose.. personally don't know - just wondering..

Are there any other options that are <$1000.. i know - should spend more, however I don't have an endless supply of money and it's gonna cost me about $5000 to get on the road in the first place..

Would it be useful to use something like this in combination with a different immobiliser system?

At the moment - might look into something like a MONGOOSE M80G.. something along those lines for the time being? many ppl use systems like these?

yep a fair few of the brisbane SAU members have them. ( I have fitted them.) decent alarm and no dramas. best to get it fitted properly. $550-650 is the starting price depening on what you get on it.

How much does it cost to get a Mongoose M80G fitted in sydney - mainly on the north shore?

Does anyone have someone that they recommend?

In regards to brant alarm systems - you can still get them installed - they are installed by private installers that used to do them for brant directly. They will install the 3-point and the 6-point nemesis ($890 - if you are with Justcars). They also offer a 3 year warranty (i believe) and will come to you and install it.

Hey Links

Might be able to help...

I recently had a 6 point alarm with key pad installed into my GTR.

The guy who put it in is the head contractor for Brant but also does private work.

His name is James and you should be able to contact him on 0408 44 33 52.

He knew what he was talking about.

He gave me an excellent price and came to me.

Hope this helps.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
