Those Remote Control Alarms And Gsm Alarms

[Angus Smart]

I'm looking into getting an alarm.

and i'm interested in something thats very good and does the job

now these remote alarms that seem to be going around are they good? and how good is their range?

i could also look at gsm alarms. and a bit of info about them if anyone has any experience with them at all.

auto windows, can work with turbo timer, good sensors, immobiliser or perhaps a seperate one coded etc, loud fkn siren, flame throwers etc.. pretty much i want one with the ducks nuts.

cheers!

so what do you REALLY want? (IE what are you prepared to pay?)

great, give me $10000 per year and i will make sure your car is ok, you wont even be able to drive it.

Now, for the sensible response,

what is your budget?

where are you?

what car?

does the car have existing - turbo timer? electric windows? electric mirrors? sunroof? electric gas cap? central locking? auto/manual gearbox?

Ok, well i dont care what i am going to have to pay and if i can find it on an international ebay auction i'd be happy to buy it. and i will install it myself.

the car is a 32 gtr, Standard in the sence of security, etc

i have an existing turbo timer

pretty much i want the car to aleart me loudly if via remote or gsm if there is any dramas. i kinda like they idea of them if it is actually any good..

as a general rule - ebay=junk thats why its there.

32 gtr I can secure REAL well. so much so that if its sneezed on you will know. as for fitting it yourself - if you are that way inclined go for it.

Ebay = CRAP.

Few reasons

- no australian warranties

- do not meet australian standards ( read no insurance when you make a claim)

- inferior product passed off as something else

There are systems here in Australia, which are australian standards apporoved, insurance approved and readily available.

Carminder

Black Widow

Clifford

Autowatch

Brandt

Mongoose

to name but a few.

All can and will do what you want.

Now, read this carefully,

Are you a licenced installer of security products?

Are you a qualified Installer?

Have you got more than 5 years industry experience?

If you answered NO to those questions then do yourself a favour, dont install it yourself, get it doen by a professional. Most backyard installs while they might technically work can be gotten around and totally disabled in seconds, GSM pager or not.

Honestly mate, if you are that paranoid about having your car knocked off pay a few bucks to someone that does it all the time.

oh,

and for those that forgot

ebay = crap.

[Chris Rogers]

actually- looked at your location- you ar going to need it pro fitted.

NSW rules require a licence security fitter before the insurance company will look at it.

[Chris_R33GTSt]

Mate go and see Leon at WWW.SECURITYINMOTION.COM.AU. He fits Autowatch systems which are made in South Africa, undoutably the most paranoid nation in world. 5 year parts and service warranty so if you get stuck you got a life line.

I got a 446LRi system with built in turbo timer and window rollup. Dont touch that Ebay shit, get it done properly once. Then you dont have to worry about it.

Who ever said anything about insurance companies?

f**k thoese filthy bastards!

my car is uninsurable.

And there is NO way i am removing parts just to make some c**t in an office happy

i.e. why i want a decent alarm/immobiliser system.

ok then the SIM in kogarah is who you see. forget about saving a $$ do it once and dont worry about it.

in this case - 446RLI + CATE + shock sensor+ glass sensor + tilt sensor.

that will stop : car starting, notify you by phone if it is screwed with, make a noise if it is hit or window broke, make a noise if the wheels are removed. thats loosely $1800 done properly.

or if it worries you that much ring this number and they will sort you out. 029-428-8900.

I take it you bought an ex drag/drift car from japan and its probably one of the 15yr ones.

[Angus Smart]

Yeah i have had it for a few years.

and never really bothered about it and never had a problem.

but somethings help you sleep a bit easier at night. so i may aswell get it off my mind!

Please, sell your car before you run into something much more expensive that what you own and cant afford to pay for it.

Every car is insurable, no matter what mods.

and no car is unstealable no matter what system is in it.

pay 4000-6000 a year on a car that might only get driven once or twice a month on the public roads!

yeah no worries!

i'd rather spend that money developing a machine that pull my dick.

why does 99.8% of the threads here turn into shit about insurance companies?

So to sum this all up with only talking about alarms and the puropse they serve.

what system would be good?

Cheers

sorry for the beef. but insurance isnt a concern!

[Chris Rogers]

give the number I posted earlier a ring. thats probably the best bet.
