Hi all, I just recently purchased a 1997 skyline r33 it had no alarm or immboliser, i am purchasing the mongoose m80G alarm, I want the doors to open with the alarm remote. Currently I am using the keys to open and close the doors - just wondering if anyone knows, will i also need to buy a central locking kit to make the alarm remote open the doors automatically or will the mongoose alarm open the doors automatically with the remote alarm? thanks

depends . 99% of the S2 33s had keyless entry. at worst it will need an actuator at best a bit of fiddling. the installer will know IF they know what they are doing.

My original r33 skyline gtst key has a button on it. (i'm guessing Central locking keyless entry button) i haven't seen/used it in YEARS, but i'll dip it up and take a pic.

can't even remember if the button works LOL.

One way to tell if it has central locking NOT keyless entry is to just put the key in the drivers side door and lock/open it, they have a switch down the bottom which sends a signal to its computer then opens/locks the passenger door. Thats nissans form of central locking... so in fact yes it does.

If you want keyless then a motor needs to be installed in the drivers door along with the keyless entry/alarm system cos i've never seen one with a remote but maybe the type M's have them more higher end skyline, just check the drivers door for a factory motor. Every R33 i've seen and worked on doing alarms etc you do need a motor in the drivers door only to activate that switch. Dunno how 4 doors work never touched one. And i do also have an R33 S2. Hope this info helps..

Cheers!

Hey guys

I just got my s2 r33 and also no remotes came with the car though it does have central locking. was wondering if the car did actually come with keyless entry could i get an aftermarket remote to activate this? or would require a nissan remote. or would i have to put a seperate motor in to suit the new remote? Hope this makes sense. Basically want to know my options as im sick of using the key. i mean it couldn't be too hard to set up a keyless system that activates the door locks could it?

Cheers

Have you got an alarm fitted?

If not, get one to protect your pride+joy, and use that remote.

      From what I understand, stock internals should hold out for a while even if you run 500 at the crank, no? Especially if you don't run a modern turbo setup that reaches power and torque much earlier than the original twins. My engine isn't unopened either, it has N1 Pumps, head oil restrictor, new crank and cams, new piston rings, ARP head studs and Cometic headgasket along with 2860-5s. Considering everything is healthy this should run fine for a while I assume. Once my engine stops leaking shit everywhere, it'll be tuned to 370 crank first anyway, because I need to legalize the turbo setup. If I end up needing a new engine because my block actually has an issue, even though GTSboy was adamant that the whole porous block story is nonsense, before putting an engine in I'm probably gonna take care of the weakspots.

      Hah, I have no issues with what you are doing whatsoever! You clearly know what you are getting yourself into. It's just funny reading things like this. "What's that noise?" "Oh, that's normal. That's just the engine not getting any oil. Nothing to worry about. It'll go away in a moment"

      Using Trickle Chargers

      By silviaz · Posted

      Yeah I'm keeping an eye on it and might take it out as a once off if this doesn't fully charge. I did some research that said it's normal in equalisation charging. Voltage I thought was 20+ (faulty battery in multimeter) but now its on 15.9v, the max it should go to is 16.2v as per the manual. I'll provide an update once hopefully it's actually fully charged and in float mode. Waiting for it to go to 16.2v and not higher and see what happens. What I suspect has happened is that even though it's not an old battery, I did leave the car turned off for almost 4 weeks at one point then left it off for another 2 weeks which might have erroded the battery and is taking a long time to do this equlisation charge.

      Comfortable replacement seats for R32 GTR

      I wouldn't be using the seats a lot since it's on Historic rego and will not be driven a lot, however I also don't want to fork out 3k for something that won't last. Havent looked at BRZ seats, aiming for something of the same era I did speak to him on the phone once, and I do see your point haha. How many kms do you think you drove before they started wearing out? Just had a look at yours, certainly looking for a reclinable version. The Brides don't look too bad! I would still like to sit in one just to make sure it's what I'm after.    Thanks for the replies fellas.

      I bought my Bride reps from Crank Motorsport. He is, um, a trifle disorganised. I would have to look back at the e-mails to make sure I got it right, but I think he sent me normal fabric ones when I ordered the "Alcantara" ones. So he had to pay for shipping 3x and I'm sure that f**ked him off big time. And asking technical questions where nuanced English is required is a no go. It's simple English only. And....should I have bought the Alcantara ones? Well, as it turns out, they are great, feel great, etc, but the fabris wore through on the point of the waist bolster in <2 years. Must have caught a rip from a rivet on jeans or shorts, or something like that. So now I have to patch it somehow. A bit shit. My fault, ultimately, because it is Chinesium Faux Alcantara, not the real thing, and it turns ot that it has the tear resistance of a soggy tissue. But the seats and the reails are great. I probably should have gotten the R34 style ones, and now that they price is up in that ridiculous sort of number, I could have sold them for a profit!
