as it says what kind of alarm should i get for my r33 2 door

should i just go for the one with the most tacky name, like stinger/hornet/viper?

i want one with remote start and remote central locking,

they have some good "no name brand" ones on ebay for around $200-300 would it be shit and if so how much do these things cost to get installed?

p.s thanks for all your help on the issues with my car everything yas have said has helped me in my quest to customising my beast, from replacing a 50 cent fuse that saved me going to an auto elec to installing a new stereo for my car, CHEERS!

An important thing to remember is that if your insurance policy specifies an australian standards certified immobiliser then make sure the one you buy one that meets the standard otherwise you will not be covered for theft (unless you have a separate A.S. immobiliser as well). Not all alarms; even locally sold ones meet the standards.

sweet as il go get one from a decent shop and ask if it will be cool with my insurance,

one more problem unrelated to this topic

and how are you blowing htem? high volume, bumps?

no idea i turn off the car replace the fuse drive off 2 mins later the clock/stereo turns off iv tried it without the stereo on and it does it anyway.

last night i went to a dodgy looking servo got another fuse, it worked and is still working.....until it blows i guess.

i got no idea

I have a Viper Alarm, It is awesome.

Got all the things you want. Remote start and central locking etc etc.

here i made this video of the remote start.

Yep, got all the things a car thief would love, remote start!

Basically, find the module, trigger the remote start and the theif doesnt have to hot wire the car.

If you want to make your car harder to steal REMOVE the remote start module.

Not to mention that remote start is also Illegal and WILL void your insurance.

This topic has been covered a few times before, but for some more information, please check this out.

leave the remote start off it .. IF you MUST have remote start (assuming its an auto) then the austowatch 288 will do it properly at $1k fitted.

if you want a decent alarm that the insuance company likes send me a pm and I'll sell you one.

Turn on your parker lights, and see if that will blow the fuse - If so, run the black wire coming out of the stereo to a proper earth (e.g. under a screw into the metal dash support.) Common problem for lots of cars with people not knowing what they are doing - or 240v elecs that think the green wire means earth.

When I bought my car, a mate recommended that I call Leon from www.securityinmotion.com.au He installed an Autowatch 446lri (read: South African, very paranoid) with built in turbo timer, shock sensor and remote boot release.

He is an absolute champion so go see him and get hooked up.

Cheers Christian.
