Hi all,

I have just scored myself a 98 series 2 skyline equiped with a mongoose mx40 immobiliser. Now i am fairly new to this, but my logic says that the immobiliser with interfear with the timer. If this is the case, does anyone know how to get around this, or have done a simmilar installation in the past?

Any information is greatly appreciated...

Thanks

i have a greddy turbo timer & a m80 mongoose system. They work.. but there are issues.. i have trouble locking the car when the turbo timer is running (sometimes i have to press the lock button 3 or more times) and the car sometimes stalls when i turn it off and the turbo timer continues to count down (dunno maybe unrelated).

I may have just had a dodgy install done which i do kind of suspect but they do work together to a certain degree.

hope this info helps ya

If the turbo timer is still running.. you have to hold down the lock button.. not just press..

Idle will dip slighly, doors will lock and the engine continues to run until the turbo timer is done.. 10 seconds after the timer finishes the car arms the immobilisers.. If it isnt working like this you may need to get it looked at..

The m40 doesnt have this feature.. only the m60 and m80 models..

Pretty sure mine is an MX40 + greddy TT - these have turbo timer option built in the same as the MX80 (we have that one on the wrx).

Just be careful on install that u connect to the correct side of the ignition.

EDIT: hmm after reading above perhaps mine is the MX60!

    • Isn't there a fitting on the back of the balance tube? That's what the OEM boost gauge uses.
    • Getting a decent signal from all 6 throats is a challenge. I don't know for sure, but I suspect that the stock balance tube is not ideal for it. I have done it on an ALFA 4 cylinder (about 35 years ago, so don't ask for too many details). We drilled 4x holes in the manifold runners, put in some fittings and ran hoses to a decent sized (I think it was about 20mm diameter) pipe that ran the length of the inlet manifold. So, it was quite a decent volume. There is a "tuning" balance to be found between the volume of the common plenum on such a thing and the diameter of the pipes running from it to the runners. You need the volume to be large enough to damp out the sharp spikes in pressure signal you get as each runner gets sucked on by its cylinder, but not so large that it becomes too slow to respond to actual changes in MAP. And you need the hoses to be small enough to transmit the signal quickly, but not so small that they delay the signal. You might have to have more than one go at it, if there isn't any actual success based wisdom to be had here. Hopefully there is. Anyway, I would not do it on only a couple of cylinders. I would also not care about "permanently modifying a part". Just bloody drill holes and make stuff better. There is nothing sacred about any GTR unless it is a genuine museum piece that you shouldn't be modifying at all anyway.
    • He's still joining you, he's just delayed it and won't have the fulleh sick ITBs...
    • The strange thing is this is a URAS front bumper (or clone of it). The bumper actually does not sit flush with the GTT hood - You need the addon to make the hood 'long' enough to reach the bumper. I have no idea why they didn't incorporate this piece into the bumper itself.. instead of sticking it to the hood instead.
    • Another thought on this OLD topic: When you paint your bonnet lip, leave a small unpainted back lip/line along the back of the lip, where it rests on the bumper. That way, the line in the back is much more prominent than the gaps in the front/under the lip - and it breaks the hood-to-bumper connection at the "correct" place, when comparing to a GTR. I'm gonna do this with mine this week, so stay tuned for pics!
