Had a viper alarm put in fairly recently... i got the guy to wire the alarm up so that when you arm the car and the mirrors are open, the mirrors will fold in but he couldn't do it so that when you disarm the car the mirrors will open?

He mentioned something like a timer delay module, something like that, that's how he thought they worked on cars which had the option from factory.

He was going to run constant power line, but said even with the car off, it would drain the battery.

So yeah, anyone got their mirrors hooked to their alarms to open and close? I think Noof had done it, but i can't remember exactly.

autotrust has it on his (along with sunroof control)... but then he's a Viper alarm specialist so he should know how to do it :)

I haven't seen him around for so long, what's he up to?

cool, i got a viper alarm, nice. Yeah, i haven't seen Danny popup for ages? i think i got his mb#, i might give him a buzz..

anyone know what he's up to?

anyone else got an idea of how to go about?

Hey Ash, will your alarm mate come out and do an install on site? Does he also do stereos?

he will, but its going to cost you.

He works from home afterhours and has his garage all setup with tools.

To pack crap up and what not is a pain for anyone if you forget even one tool or dont bring enough wire or whatever

PM me guys if you want his number, im lazy, its easier to reply than me send one out :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

u referring to alarm or compliance?

the fold out was something he hadn't done before... and it's something that no one seems to have a straight answer for either, so i'm guessing it's not that straight forward

I'd recommend this guy any time to do an alarm install, he did a great job and know's his stuff well. He's even got a V8 RX7 that he built himself, one of these self taught ppl :(

but yeah, the fold-out had him stumped, but if you gave him a day and access to any Jaycar kit he wanted, i'm sure he'd get it going ;)

Spoke to danny about it last night. He's been busy with his new Celsior and other cock-smoking activities. He said his fold in/fold out was hooked up to his sunroof control (which he controlled with the Viper alarm).

He also warned that due to the nature of the power mirror switch, you could fry the switch/relay/fuse if you tried to use the feature through the remote while the car was running (something about the car wanting the mirrors out while the alarm was trying to fold em in).

Best to call him and talk to him about it.

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
