he would have needed a receipt for alarm install to make a claim anyway..

i c ...

so if you get ur alarm installed, by someone who does alarms, but isnt an actual pro or a business, will a receipt from them still count ?

bit of a grey area for me! I just realised today that I didn't end up getting a receipt for my alarm install.. I have the box.. thats about it. They'd probably use that to try to get out of it (as usual).

Maybe you can give a workshop $20 to 'check' the alarm is installed properly & keep that as proof... no idea. :\ Let me know if you think of something better :O

Also depends on the insurance company but most companies that insure imports/$$$cars ask for proof eg Shannons.

*Actually from memory Just Cars said they need a receipt from a workshop with an ABN or some such. Don't know, ring yours anon & ask :P

think thats about all you could do

take it to a pro, and just ask them if they can say they installed it (by giving you a receipt) and they'd score some quick cash for doing SFA....only issue would be there'd have to be something in writing so that they dont have to like give you warranty on their install etc....

sorry to hijack your thread, but im still keeping an eye out in my travels

Thanks a lot for looking out, it counts.

In my experience with alarms and immobilisers, they have to installed by an accredited installer to count for insurance discount. The main reason for this so I was told from the insurance company, is they are deemed to know how to actually install it correctly as the are accredited and in some cases have been through training with the alarm/immobiliser company.

Hope the car turns up soon mate.

i dont think any of us were talking about discounts, as they seem to be non existant. ive gotten quotes with and without an alarm installed, and the price doesnt move...

but it lists on the policy, that a 2 point immobilser MUST be installed to be covered....thats whate we're all talkin about

nah your right, but it ses stuff along the lines of like 'illegal modifications' and 'legal car for your current licence'

i havnt read it in a while, just remember reading it in the toilet a while back when i got it :P

speaking of terms and conditions for just cars, i downloaded and read them...didnt see anything about the power to weight ratio, and claims not being paid because of it....hmmm

You may not have mentioned discount but this is what I was referring to.

yeah thats cool

the guy i get to install my hu's and my last alarm is a business, but he comes out to you etc....so i wonder if he counts as accredited hmmm

wont risk it on a skyline, ill get it done by a pro if thats what i have to do

when i bought my car it didnt have an alarm.. but the importer installed a alarm/immobiliser for me when i picked it up.

i dont have receipts obviously but on the cars contract it ses they will get the alarm/immobiliser installed for us included in the deal..

Do you rekon that would keep em happy evan though i dont have receipt ?

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
