I got my windows done at Solar Tint: http://www.solartint.com.au/ They have a lifetime warranty and did a good job...nice guys too! they have a place in Melbourne, see the website for info...

as for alarms, I have a Brant (along with many other members of this forum!). They are fitted by Suburu in the factory for lots of their cars, including WRX & STI's.....you can get lots of different ones depending on what you need, but I just got the basic one which was only around $600. They fit them all over Aus including Melb..

see http://www.brant.com.au/

go the brant, they are an awersome alarm!!! got the nemesis model and i haven't looked back since getting it - was paraniod about security before it was fitted, no it doesn't even cross my mind!!!

no idea about window tint sorry!!!

hey aZn_RoMeO,

what i found with the brant car alarm, is that it provided a "piece of mind" that none of the other car alarms that i could find did.... pretty much the only way that they can steal this car and the company has said this as well is if someone has a forklift thing and physically lifts the car from wherever u left it onto a flat-tray truck and then move the car away - but even then they will have a hell of a job to either get the car started or workout how the alarm functions as it's all in black wiring (so what u say - i can get this from strathfield or wherever) but if any wires are cut the car is dead - 6 point engine protection - it's got ultrasonics + incar sensors, passive rearming (it really is as well!!!) and if the battery is disconnected as i found out last week then the only way to stop the siren's is to enter the master code into the pinpad ( + along with all the normal features of a car alarm).

here are the features from their website on the nemesis:

Features –

Remote codehopping operation + BRANTS famous PIN code entry system

Six (6) engine immobilisers

Dual siren system (one self powered siren outside – one inside)

Ultrasonic movement detectors + 2 stage impact shock sensors

Keyless entry

Electric window operation (option)

Remote panic

Passive immobilisation

Auto rearm in case of accidental switch off

False alarm lockout

Detects intrusion via doors, boot/hatch, bonnet, windows, sunroof + immobilises the engine in 6 places.

And much more…

look, i'm in no-way affiliated with them, and personally the cost that are associated with it are pretty high, but for me it way the peace of mind factor of making theft of my precious skyline 0% (as close as possible to it anyway) - i think the costs are something around the $1000 - $1100 mark for the nemesis - but if u think u don't need all that protection, then go for one of the simplier models, (and i think, but don't quote me on this, that these can be upgraded by adding extra components later to make a nemesis model).

i hope this helps, but if your in melbourne give angi a call and have a chat to her, very good and always willing to help even after i bought the alarm - otherwise i'm pretty sure there is an outlet in every state....

sh^t thanks for all that help man.

I was thinkin about Boomerang. Same Price slightly cheaper.

But u kno. it comes with cool features. auto armin with brakes.

auto windows n sunroof, T timer, auto start stuff like that.

But man. 6 point immoboliser? Sh^T thats goos Sh^t

U sure around 1000, 10-1000 mark? installed?

And whos angi? i'm in sydney.....but/.how old is she? :rolleyes:

ok firstly - u can get the auto features added to the alarm like i did but they are extra - i think the auto windows up feature was something like 148 dollars for both windows - the nemesis itself was 1098 installed

haha, angi - that's the name of the company that does the installation in melbourne and the person who runs it is called funnily enough angi - but if u wanted to get in contact with the sydney one these are their contact info.

all info above was for a series 1, r33 but i can't see the amount changing at all

K thanks alot man.

Which model did u have?

and problems with turbo timer install?

and does Brant Nemisis have an auto start feature?

coz i went to the website. doesn't say. I just sent an email for info but yea just wondering if u kno or have any of these features

hahahha...angi is a company? LOL

the nemesis model, there is no problems with turbo timers, cause within the keypad control there is a feature which can be turned on/off for turbo timer feature - as far as i know there is no auto start feature but as i've read from other people with it on the forums it's a novelty thing and lasts about a week - bit like my auto feature for the windows i guess (forget i got it installed and almost always put the windows up myself!!!) yeah it's A.N.G.I. technologies, lolz

    • There's a post from a member (can't recall who), went down the path of a twin scroll G30-660 and it's doing over 300kW+ AND comes on about the same as a high flow RB25DET turbo. Have your cake and eat it too in this case. TBH, if I had a 2nd chance of building my car again (i.e. someone gave me what I wanted for my shit box, but the deal was I had to re-build another R33 and keep the change) I would just pop in a stock NEO motor (with new seals, rod bearings, ARP studs, head gasket, sump, Nitto pump), get a smaller twin scroll turbo, modify the stock low mount (keep the divider in place), and make a solid 300kW on 98RON and call it a day. 
    • It's all the sound deadening, and extra shit piled into them, plus all the extra (even though it's thinner) material for crumple zones. I can't fathom in modern cars why they need canbus to the headlights, and why the headlights must be vin coded on some cars to the ECU, BCM, and security module! Especially when they claim it's for security, yet, the canbus at the headlights let's thieves steal the car in minutes, so even more cars are being stolen! The Mercedes Sprinter 907 vans. They're a huge van, but a "basic" van. Yet they have that many canbus networks, plus two Lin networks, AND an Ethernet network. Logging a single network alone of 8 byte data frames, and they will generate a 20mb log file in 5 minutes. That's one network, and I can't remember the exact amount, but there's over 10 full CAN2.0B networks in them. I'm not a fan of modern cars, oddly, more and more I hate DBW, and all the bullshittery the cars try and interfere with. But all that bullshittery adds weight, plus crazy regulations on crumple zones, plus, ever picked a modern seat up, half of them have like 4 electric motors in them and will weigh 30+kg each. Then all the motors for things like adjustable steering columns blah blah blah. And did I mention the sound deadening so you can even hear an ambulance right behind you even if you 7.2surround sound is off?
    • Ah ok, yeah it should be flat, I believe the r34 battery tray has these 3 bumps in them they makes it line up and everything is flat, don't see how it would tilt if everything is secured.
    • Agreed it actively wants to kill you which I love driving fast cars slow is my stick
    • Awesome! I was thinking S14 since they are longer. I'll give those a shot. Thanks for the input!
