Hey guys,

just a couple of quick newbie questions about alarm systems with turbo timers inbuilt, are they any good ? how does the system judge how long the car should remain on for, im assuming its fully automatic ? im planning on getting this alarm system http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...type=osi_widget (i know i know Ebay alarms arent heavily favoured by you guys etc im sorry! besides my car is never far from me - will always be kept in my carport) also can i get an idea of how much such a system would cost to be fully installed into my 33,

thanks alot guys any information would be greatly appreciated as this is my first import and im a big newbie,

P.A

My Autowatch alarm has the inbuilt turbo timer. If your car only runs for 2-3 minutes, it will not use the turbo timer and the engine will shut down immediately. If the car runs for longer, the turbo timer counts down for a preset time (i think mine is set to 90 seconds). This works fine for me, i choose to go for an alarm with the t/timer in it, to reduce the amount of unnecessary wiring + electronics in my car.

you may not have much $$ left after your purchase but I would honestly NOT buy that unit. since you are in adelaide go see adelaide pro sound and get him to sort the car out. it will be done properly AND it will be insurance compliant. that one will last 6 months tops and IF you need a remote where are you going to get one from??

These alarm have crappy protection. Remotes so fragile....and the I dont recommend the engine start in your car. Sometime the sense is faulty and your forget car in gear ......hope nothing front of the car. -.- I took down my Fence down once.....
