14ish months ago i got a profesional installer to put in a rhino alarm, Aus standards, took him 3 ish hours to install it, it has worked fine for 14motnhs but it has now stuffed up. It came with central locking but he recons he had to install another central locking mechanism to get the passenger door to lock and unlock simultaneously....

anyway this guy dissapeared a long time ago and ive been chasing him on and off (half heartedly) for a year trying to get an insurance certificate for the alarm with no success. The well know import car mob who i paid and they sub contracted have no idea where hes gone but they recon he has just dissapeared...

Symptoms:

Press lock on the keypad and the locks click but they dont lock.

the cabin light used to turn off after locking and arming the alarm but now it stays on (coincidence???)

at first i noticed only the drivers door wouldnt lock and i could manually lock it with the key or by hand from inside the car, the passenger door originally had no such problems, but now both doors don't lock and cannot even manually lock the car....

The alarm still works, it arms fine, and when you trip the alarm it still sirens.... dont know if imobiliser still works but looks like it still might seeing as the alarm is still working.

what to do????

What sounds to be the fault???

anyone in sydney?

    • does anyone know tie rod torque setting and anti roll bar for r34? Is there a workshop which shows various components torque setting?
    • Hi    have purchased pair of eibach wheel spacer as I couldn’t fit set of wheels I bought for my car due to it catching caliper.   I know I need to cut the bolts on my discs so they sit flush with the nut supplied but the nut doesn’t sit all the way into the groove meaning wheel would not directly fit onto the spacer rather the nuts. Any thoughts?   See pic   https://ibb.co/VJK5w5G
    • Nah. There's not shit tonnes of pressure in there. Just drill with a 1.5mm drill or something equally tiny. When the drill goes all the way through thee gas will start to come out, but with such tiny path through the flutes of the drill bit, it won't be at all dangerous. You can be as paranoid as you like from then on. I'd just pull the drill out while keeping my face out of the line of fire. But then, I spend half my time looking into pressurised furnaces. So my risk acceptance is somewhat higher than most!
    • Been needing a new clutch for a while, but holding off because of life tingz and adulting. But... Being of Asian descent, I can't pass on a good sale, especially everyone else is selling it for $2k+ (JJR has it for $1799). Really on the fence on this one, because the unsprung version of this is $1281 via Shitbox (Sparesbox) and the sprung version is quite a bit more (no idea why Shitbox doesn't offer them). Ending up just sending it and getting the twin sprung organic. Mainly because I wanted the car to be nice to drive and didn't want to make it more of a shitbox than it already is.
