i want something with a 3 point immobiliser and has the radio tehcnology where i can see if my car is ok from a distance, but satellite tracking is a bit costly, i am currently looking at the boomerang and autobahn systems, also where would be the best place to buy the system and where would i get the best quality installation (hopefully there are places who sell the systems and do killer installations, note: killer meaning GOOD! LOL) ? i got dodged with my last car by JBHIFI and realised you get what you pay for with installations :) but yeah im prepared to pay for the best installation and i want the best security for my car :P its a 95 Skyline R33 GTS-T please tell me what you guys use in what cars as well this is a big decision for me as i do wanna make 110% sure im buying the right thing for my baby :P

thaks guys!

I just had Quiktrak installed in my car. They were very professional and now I feel I have total piece of mind. I'd say it's worth it but depends on the person.

Quiktrak quotes $2150 incl first year's tracking ($320 per year after that). They give you a bit off sometimes if you are insured with a certain company etc, doesn't hurt to ask, I got a slight discount.

Anyway, I'd recommend it but the choice is yours, good luck in finding a good system.

Cheers

Ok thats a fair enuf comment re: the alarm not working through 5 brick walls but think about what you're saying.... it doesnt matter if your car gets stolen beneath Star City for example because as soon they trigger an alarm you get a call... additionally the tracking signal will resume when the car gets outside of the building. So you're only screwed if they decide to strip the car for parts in the actual carpark. So basically even if the thief ducks in and out of concrete carparks as soon as he moves again the signal will track him. They tend to pick the thief up within 20mins of first detection anyway so he aint gunna get too far....

HSVKLR i actually meant the little Autobahn type alarms with the little hand controller thing that tells u if ur alarm has been set off, doors are open, windows up etc NOT the Satellite tracking.

1. if your car is stolen from star city, say good bye to it.

2. its not hard to find the tracking module and rip it out, it can only go in a few places

3. its possible to block the trackings signal

4. radio pagers are useless, once you go around the corner theyre pathetic and all you have to do to disable it is rip the little magnetic strip off the window

5. if youre in sydney and want an excellent alarm and install at a good price, pm me and ill recommend you someone that a few of us on here use

I still have a few autobahn 2way's for sale. I havent done too much testing on range, but can say its pretty good.

If I park my car in the basement of my friends apartment building in the city.. I open/close/start/monitor the car from the 16th floor. Thats not a huge distance, but if you think about all the concrete between the basement and 16th floor its not bad. If anyones interested, im going to be around melb til the 28th.

well as long as i get range from say a car park and when im in a movie then thats perfect as thats the only main time my car is at risk, but i have a manual and i was told in my gts-t its too hard and could **** the car installiung the thing to detetc if its in gear or not so if i get a pager system i just wont get the remote start hooked up, i already have a turbo timer installe into it, will it work with the alarm to ensure it can cool the turbo and turn off while armed or the alamr just locks the doors, waits till the turbo timer shuts donw then arms the system ?

You should try calling Danny @ AutoTrust - he is one of the best installers in Melbourne, he does most top alarms from QuikTrak to DEI products .. he also owns a Skyline and perfers to work on imports (especially R33's) - call 0403 056 181

    • Apologies for the long post, but needed somewhere to lay out the entire timeline of events and actions taken:   I've got an 89 GTR with a R34 RB in it. It's been running great all year, driven probably 500KM in the last month. It's not my daily driver, just a weekend fun car.    Build info: R34 RB26 - HKS 2.7 stroker kit, HKS adjustable cam gears, HKS turbo upgrades, Trust intercooler, R34 factory DENSO 440cc injectors, JUN chipped/tuned R32 ECU. All of this work was performed in Japan back in 2019.    Thursday 10/2/25 - It's a nice day and decided I'll drive it to work, I start it up in the garage and I notice it took a few extra cranks and sounded a bit funny. I figure maybe it was just because it was a pretty chilly morning. I pull it out into the driveway to warm up a bit before leaving. As I leave the driveway, it feels very off and sounds like a misfire. I pull it back in the garage to deal with after work and take the daily to work. I was able to diagnose it as a cylinder 5 misfire with the old spark plug test (unplugging each plug until a sound change with the engine running). I take off the whole ignition system, ignitor, plugs, spark. *Important note, it is still on the R32 ignition system with the separate ignitor system. I test each system with a multi-meter and nothing presents as a smoking gun. I put it all back together and it starts up no issue. I go ahead and order the PRP R35 ignition conversion kit. It should arrive today (10/13/25)   Friday 10/3/25 - Another nice day, car starts up great and drives great all day. Very pleased that everything seems to be OK   Sunday 10/5/25 - Decided I'll take it to play some golf, load up and drive to the course about 25 minutes away. Drives wonderful the whole way there, I pull in the parking lot and the engine completely comes to a stop. I do not recall if it sputtered at all, but just remember all of the sudden the engine was off. I roll it into a parking spot, try to crank it back on and nothing.  It'll crank and crank and not even try to start. End up getting it towed back to my house and push it up into the garage.    Items I have checked: Fuel in the tank Fuel Pump relay Fuel pump fuse  Spark Plugs & gap Coil packs Ignitor    I know the cylinders are getting fuel as the plugs smell like fuel after a start attempt. I tried spraying starter fluid into the manifold and cranking and not even a sputter.    I decided to do the live CAS test (removing the the CAS, ignition on and spinning the CAS stalk to see if the injectors pulse and spark is active). All of the injectors were pulsing and I have spark at the plug. The half-moon end of the CAS did seem very loose, I'm not sure how much play is supposed to be there, but it was more than I expected. There was no in/out play of the shaft, just the tip end that is pinned on had quite a bit of play.    CAS Play video   When I put the CAS back in, I stupidly did not re-time the engine. I know I need to do that tonight, however, I do not think it will start given it seemingly was not the issue. My plan is to do the PRP R35 coil kit and retime the engine at the same time.    I plan on ordering the Haltech Nexus Plug-in ECU once they are available again, but ideally would like to get this sorted before firing the parts cannon at it and potentially adding more variables.    Anything glaring that I am missing here, I'm a bit at a loss?          
    • Get it on a dyno. Get something logging Consult. Run it up and find out what is causing it.
    • Looking for a plenum for rb25 de+t neo  Not looking to push much power maybe 300kw at the wheels, is there much difference in flow for Freddy “Greddy style” compared to original Greddy or options like Proflow or Otaku garage?    I won’t be porting the de Neo head for now as I think it’ll be fine 280-300rwkw but appreciate the help and any experiences anyone has between them and any advice. Thanks  Looking at this plenum for now below 
    • engine wise almost no mods: stock ecu Greddy front mount intercooler Greddy forward facing intake w R33 TB stock fuel system, stock injectors, rail etc. Kakimoto racing hyper 3 inch exhaust system Apexi intake filter New NGK –R BCPRES (.8 gap) plugs  
    • Nice one @Pac - looks like a fair few 1600's there!
