R33 Immobiliser Problems

[1996r33gts]

G'day guys,

I was overseas last year for a while and my 1996 Skyline was sitting in a garage being driven occasionally by a friend to keep the juices flowing. When I came back the factory immobiliser (at least i presume it is factory) seemed to have stopped working - pressing the button on the remote seemed to have no effect (battery in remote fine though).

Anyway, long story short, my battery died last week and all of a sudden, my immobiliser started working again. Having moved house a couple of times since the immobiliser stopped working, i seemed to have packed the remote away and have no idea where it is (really smart, i know)...

What are my options for getting the car started? is there a way to bypass the factory immobiliser or am i going to need to get an auto electrician out to my house? is there any point calling the RACV in?

any advice you guys have would be appreciated...

thanks,

evo

If you don't want to find the remote you'll have to get in and find the immobilisation point. It should be the same on every r33 but I doubt you'll have people posting this up on the forum -especially since they don't know you're not really a thief that hasn't figured it out.

Obviously, if you own the car you could just get someone to come out and install a new alarm and get them to disable the old one at the same time. If they've worked on a r33 before doing the same thing they should know.

Good luck.

Thanks for your reply,

Does anyone have any suggestions for who I could call to come out and install a new alarm/immobiliser?

thanks,

a sparky first to get the car going and from there - yellow pages.
