I think I know who you are talking about. had one contact me today. thing being is these things need a FULL ON alarm system with FULL back to base monitoring. self monitoring on this fleet doesn't cut it. put shorlty these things are $3.5m each.

Chris, trust me when I say you where not contacted by the person I am thinking about, as the system we are trying is not in release yet.

The system has GPS tracking with GSM updates, full back to base monitor, complete alarm system with 4 point imobilisation, and is a nice unit. Funny enough, it comes from the same supplier Quik Trak was using in Asia, not sure if it's the exact same unit.

Anyway, been doing some research, found these interesting reads:

Makes for an interesting read, especially the first one.

ok that is WEIRD!!

I spoke to a few people I deal with daily internally and I was told game over.

the ASIC extracts I understand quite well. (I'm in there as well.)

484E (30/06) I know who that was and where he went.

506L - that has me stumped unless its to the SA address.

if the system you speak of is the next incarnation of the QT system they were mucking with then you have my attention.

Immobilistaion points I'm not worried about. mine was a custom job anyway and I had FULL control of it when needed.

ring me in the morn - details in sig and hit contact when you get to the site.

Hey Guys,

Just received an update from the Quiktrak administrators, they are hoping to have sold the business by the end of next week. If a sale does go ahead, all accounts in credit will be honoured.

fingers crossed

think everyone got it. I've been talking to them of/off through the week. I'm somewhat of an exception to the rule due to the account I hold (barely..)

I'm hoping they sell it. i really do.

I'm in the hotseat on this one.. I have a vehicle in build - I'm wiring it with no alarm in sight yet.

I have sussed a unit for it but the contract being what it is , the thing is ALL custom.

Any updates on who's going to buy over Quiktrak? And when?

I saw on Silvia forums that Quiktrak Administrators were giving out names of installers(un-installers) to remove the units out of customer's cars. :D

So, why would the administrators be recommending that if someone is going to buy it????? :)

they were telling me the same thing until I explained who I was.

you can't uninstall a fleet. let alone wire a single vehicle with a different system. its NOT that easy.

the NS thread looks to be complaining and not much else to me.

Here is the document mate, and for anyone interested! I have received multiple emails from them over the last few weeks, not sure why you have not? Do they have your current email?

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 馃
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
