I have a digital autowatch alarm on my car and apparently you can hook up all sorts of crap to it....

i have a spare button and i want to hook up an engine start onto it and on the other button which currently locks the doors and arms the alarm...i want it to put the windows up at the same time...

apparently this can all happen....but who do i get to do it??

or is it fairly simple...and i can do it myself....anyone else had this done?

by the way i know the start feature is illegal, but as i only drive on closed circuit roads and race tracks then it doesnt matter :P

yeah fane, i know a guy who installs autowatch systems and he can wire up all the above that you mentioned. and more.

only downside he is in wangara. but WELL worth a nice 40 min drive to do it i rekon. Im not sure if u could do it yourself. i think its a lil more complex. but yeah he can make it so when alarm is activated the windows will go up. he can make it so when you start the car by remote it will put windows down etc. (if i remember right...)

but yeah.

pretty fancy stuff he can do with it... (he has his autowatch in his car hooked up to a mobile phone, so he can call his car and arm it over the phone, he has done many mad things with his alarm system.)

bad news, but apparently you can only get the start feature on an auto car. :)

i still want the windows to go up when i lock it tho i'll have to take it up and show the guy....i think autoworx put in the alarm i'll give them a ring aswell and ill give you an update cam... :P if anyone knows of anyone with the start feature on a manual let me know :)

thats what i thought... but he said nah you cant do it on a manual...and i said ohhh ok crap and he goes ohhh well we will have a look at it.... if it wasnt all the way in wangara it would be different...

i'll be able to find someone that will able to do it for me surely... :P

Woohoo! sucked in Manual boys :P sorry been waiting for something cool you can do with an auto car you cant do with a manual!

I need an alarm system put in mine ..... and i love buttons n gadgets etc .... so anybody know about how much these systems retail for?

and they said the window lift hook up is $125, and he wont hook up the remote start because its illegal anyone know of any other places that may do it?

but at least i know where i can get the window lift hooked up... :P awesome!!

I saw a place called "Downunder Mufflers" on the corner of Scarb Bch Rd and Loftus St that has an Autowatch dealer sign out the front. These guys used to do a heap of compliancing work and specialise in imported cars apparently.

I was gonna take my Autowatch to em coz my central locking has never worked since I picked the car up and I never whinged at the time... silly me.

We at Action Alarms situated in Osborne Park are Autowatch dealers and can do the power window lift for you. $125 for the job is a very good price too, so I wouldn't want to better it.

Remote start is possible, but illegal! Is your car road registered? If not we might have a look at it.

Operating the alarm by mobile phone and or being called by your car if the system is triggered etc is also possible but not cheap. The pager option is a bit more affordable, but not as cool.

    • That ring thing is interesting how it's holding everything together 
    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
