Been checking out all of the recent discussions on the Mongoose M80 Series and they sound impressive. Where is the best place to purchase a M80s? Any recommendations on installers? Could I just buy the alarm and take it to any auto-electrician?

Can you also let me know the price I should be looking at paying incuding installation? How long do they take to install...?? 2hrs...?? more...??

Thanks dudes

One other thing. The car has standard central locking at the moment but I would like to have keyless entry as part of this setup. WIll the M80S automatically unlock the doors when disarming or do i need to purchase an extra component?

Search for him and you will know why!!

2hrs?? should be more like 4 hours..

He can supply and fit and he can come to you!! ;)

dude, you dont want anyone installing it, if he knows where you live, thats a big no no.

if he can install it, he cant definatley get through it

Most places that sell them will install them. It should cost no more than $499- and will take around 4hrs to install. It will work with an existing central locking system. A mate got one about 2 weeks ago, and there pretty good.

so does that mean I have acess to 300+ cars here in brissy...

sorry but paranoia is a bad thing. I know this guy and his work hence why I refer to him in sydney. beleive me a skyline is not all he works on (try porsche!)

Unless you install your alarm yourself, someone will install it for you, and know what sort of alarm, and how it is installed. There is a small element of trust, so maybe its good to go with someone who is recommended. But it's still better to get a professional install, than a "top secret home job" that isnt secure.

    • Late to this party but here is your go to shop in perth - https://www.facebook.com/gsautoworksau GTSBOY is on the money cost wise, drive in and out will cost you 15-30k or more.    Some items that will save you money  - plug in link ecu g4x is much cheaper than haltech.   -Pulsar turbo, seem to be "OK" now, never used one myself You really don't have to build the motor, E85, headgasket, studs and a good RB26 will live for ever.    Swapping over the twins won't save much as you still need ecu, tune, fuel system etc.          
    • Welcome back to the scene! Godzilla Motorsports were well regarded back in the day.  My GT-R had work done there prior to my ownership.   SRS (Street Race Solutions) in Toowoomba worth a look.  They've built some pretty wild Skylines. Their YouTube channel is comedic to watch!  I'm sure they're all on the glass BBQ but they get shit done! 🤣
    • Hard to say what the extra connector is, it looks a bit like a coax type connector, so possibly a separate radio/GPS antenna, or even another camera input?  The V37 series (including the Q50), did go through a model refresh in 2020, since Australia didn't get any Q50s newer than 2019, we didn't get any of the refreshed models, so there could also be other unexpected problems to overcome to swap an older Q50 head unit into a new model V37. There probably aren't too many people around that have made these sorts of changes to a Q50/V37, so you might end up being the first if you do decide to go ahead. ACP is Apple Car Play and AA is Android Auto, they are roughly the same thing for the 2 major phone operating systems (Apple's iOS and Android), it allows you to connect your phone and access a number of your phone applications on your car system.  With Nav apps included, so you could use google maps/Waze or whatever your favourite navigation app is, instead of using the built in navi system.  I think this would be a better solution if it is only Navigation that you are looking as swapping the head unit for. GPS signals are the same around the globe as the GPS satellites continuously circle the globe, but it is the head unit that doesn't allow you to load Australian maps, or at least no-one had made an Australian map that will load up on the JDM head unit. Regarding the TV standards, I assume you are referring to the AV inputs?  I haven't ever tried to use them, Japan used a slightly modified version of the US NTSC system, and Australia uses PAL for composite video, that said, I wouldn't be surprised if a video input could work with either system.  That is mostly irrelevant here though, unless you plan to use those inputs for something?
    • If you've got bucket loads of $. Go single. If not, just upgrade the twins, Garrett -9's or whatever the current equivalent is for a healthy 350awkw and leave it at that. Will probably still cost you 10k to do in this day and age.
    • When you looking to buy injectors?? I could possibly sell you my 1d1700s for decent price. Done little work I just need bigger again 😫
