Hey guys,

Noticed last night when I went to drive my car (only couple times a week) the immob light wasnt on and I didnt press my remote.

the light that indicates my security is on isnt on and Im kinda worried as I dont want to leave the car anywhere.

Not sure of brand but could anyone have any ideas on what to do / check / anything!?!?!?!

Cheers,

Chris

Hey Chris!

(havent seen u on PF for a while!)

Havent got on on me at work but I'll get one tonight and find out.

I got home last night and the red light on the dash was on....so all good but this morning checked it out and the red light was flashing, used remote, turned off and worked. however a minute later the car locked itself and red light went back on and flashed. Now its never locked itself before.....werid, really weird :angry:

If you didnt open any of the doors when you turned it off last night, it is basically an inbuilt feature that it will rearm and lock the doors regardless of the type of immobiliser or alarm. Generally has a 30 second delay though... but if you turned it off and opened a door there is definitely a gremlin of some sort in there!

    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
    • Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...
