  1. Qualifications: 15 years Industry Experience, Master Licence and installation Licence, ASIAL Member, CARSAFE They are licensed qualified installers who can most likely install something that will be covered by insurance. If you need an immobiliser for insurance, it's best to first ask your insurer what they require, as some insurance agencies may have different requirements. At the minimum it would be an Australian Standards approved immobiliser, which they can definitely do. Then talk to your alarm installer and tell them what your requirements are, and they can assist you.
  2. Contact Security in Motion. Details are in thread below. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=134251
  3. What does the sender unit look like? There are two versions - an old one and a new one, but I'm not sure if the old senders are compatible with the new gauges, and vice versa. The old ones don't have a trigger for an external warning light (the new ones do), and the actual meter face itself looks slightly different. Here's an example of an OLD one: Here's a NEW one:
  4. Wish I had some better pictures, but these will have to do. Took this pic a few weeks ago when I was installing my dash bulbs. Looks like I'm missing one of the hoses which connect the climate control sensors. The white plastic part I've circled in the photo and FAST diagram is what FAST calls an 'aspirator.' In the pic below you can see a black hose coming off the right side. That connects to the dashboard temp sensor (the one to the left of the steering wheel).. But on the other (left) side of the aspirator, it's just an open outlet, with no hose or anything. Looks like another hose should be connected there, but I can't see one. Anyone know if it is, and if so where it connects to?? Cheers.
  5. Recommended installers around Australia Disclaimer: The following list is mainly made up of recommendations I've received. The installers listed are all certified professionals with appropriate qualifications and licences, and most have experience with imports. SAU will not accept any responsibility for anything going amok with your car, but that being said I would gladly entrust these individuals to install a security system in my car: NSW - Allan Jong (Maxi Security). Mobile, will come to you. 02 9608 6781. - Security in Motion. Speak to Leon. 0407 106 822 or 0425 766 341. VIC QLD - Chris Rogers (Brisbane) SA - Adelaide Pro Sound. APS on the forums, but full contact details on website. WA NT TAS I'd rather choose someone else. Who can I trust? As a first point, I'd look up the ASIAL (Australian Security Industry Association) register, here.
  6. The same questions get asked over and over on the forum every week. By putting them all in one location, hopefully it will be easier for ppl to browse What is an immobiliser? An immobiliser is an electronic device, which automatically shuts down essential systems in your car (such as the ignition, fuel pump, starter circuit or ECU) so that it cannot be driven away powered by its own engine. What does a 'Standards approved' immobiliser have? Under the Australian/New Zealand Standard for Vehicle Immobilisers (AS/NZS 4601:1999, amended in 2003), an immobiliser should have: - Automatic immobilisation within 40 seconds of ignition switch-off - Two independent points of immobilisation - Connections enclosed in security housing - All black security wiring - Flashing dashboard LED when system is armed - Secure owner PIN override
  7. Adelaide Pro Sound? Otherwise any auto parts shop should stock or if not can order - Repco, Autobarn, etc.
  8. Nice car So you've decided to go GT-R then aye Luke?
  9. Wiring info from JL Audio website for a DVC sub: http://mobile.jlaudio.com/support_pages.php?page_id=161
  10. As above, if it's got the xenons, you need a D2S bulb.
  11. You can't import an N/A C34 Stagea. If any are around in Australia, they would have been imported pre-2003.
  12. You need to call DOTARS, Vehicle Imports Enquiries Ph: 1800 815 272 Fax: (02) 6274 6013 Give them VIN number, and provide proof of ownership and they SHOULD be able to assist you with a copy of the papers.
  13. Jap battery posts are smaller (thinner) than the ones we use in Australia (SAE). You can either modify the standard terminals (eg with a screwdriver, prise them open) to fit the SAE posts. Alternative is to cut off the old ones, and fit new terminals. Battery sizes shouldn't be an issue. You can pick up plenty of equivalent sized batteries around here. Don't need to be as small as the stock battery either.
  14. Guy's name is John So. Real nice bloke, prices are a bit on the high side for some things, but he can get a lot of cool stuff which ppl don't usually stock. You should be able to bring him down on prices, especially if you bring a car for him to perve at
  15. RB20/RB25s1 AFM plugs are the same as GTR plugs.
  16. It's more than a rego check. If it's not in your name already in NSW, you need to go for an identity check. And if you live within 40km of the Adelaide GPO it MUST go to Regency, well that's what the link below says ... http://www.transport.sa.gov.au/registratio...egistration.asp
  17. Should be able to mount them on the parcel shelf if you use spacers (either buy or make some). There's a decent guide telling you what you need to do on SDU: http://www.skylinesdownunder.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=48078
  18. If it was sent by post, no GST or import duty payable for goods under $1000 (incl postage) Look up the Customs website for the fact sheet on 'importing goods - buying over the internet.' Going off the USPS postage calculator, an 11lb package shipped by Express Mail International costs US$67 (~AU$100). So all up around $340 or thereabouts.
  19. Just putting the word out there that Round 3 of the NSW CAASQ (Car Audio Australia Sound Quality) Competition is coming up in just over a week. For those who are unaware, there's a whole bunch of car audio competitions going on around Australia year round, catering for both SQ and SPL. CAASQ is one of them. There are a bunch of classes ranging from Amateur to Professional, and it's open to anyone, not just those with super duper systems. SAU has even been lucky enough to get some representation, with a forum member (Liquid) picking up two awards at the last round. Anyway, here's the details: When: Sunday 27th May, 2007 Where: Stuart Park. This is behind Wollongong North beach and comes off George Hanley Drive. The map below is marked with a small circle. Time: Registration for the competition starts at 08:00 and judging begins at 10:00 sharp. We get there around 08:00 to get undercover tables and a couple of BBQ’s etc. Anytime after that though is fine - finish is usually around 17:00-18:00. We do stay back to chat and mingle though. Cost: $35. The planned order of events for the SQ side of the day are: Amateur Street Class Amateur Show Class Pro Street Class Pro Show Class Award presentations Food and drink is being supplied by FHRX Studios, they ask for a gold coin donation (or more) which goes to charity. Anyway, details can be found on the MEA forum: http://www.mobileelectronics.com.au/forums...showtopic=83562 Vijay
  20. Hi all, Changed the intake pipe on my car recently, the new pipe has a 50mm outlet for a BOV return (which I'm not using). Outlet is currently open to atmosphere and causing all sorts of lovely stalling issues at idle... So I'm looking for a bung or similar I can cover the hole with and clamp it up. However, had no luck so far with Pirtek, or most of the other local auto shops I tried today. Any suggestions on where I can get up one from? Thanks...
  21. Hardship provs in super legislation won't extend to 'taking some money out so I can pay off the poor bloke I hit the other day.' So don't even hold your hopes up for that.
  22. Remove the vertical trim panel to expose the area where the battery is. In the back right of that area, on the ground - you'll see a square metal plate with four screws in it. That's what you need to remove to expose the black locking ring under which you can access the fuel pump.
  23. LCT is payable at a rate of 25% for the value over $57,009. Read the customs guide to importing a motor vehicle. Explains the costs pretty well, and how to value the car: http://www.customs.gov.au/webdata/resource...dePrivOwnMV.pdf Add to that all the other statutory costs associated with importing a vehicle, and assuming he satisfies requirements for a personal import.
  24. Nah they're different. I think he's sorted it out already though
