Hey guyz, just getting the Autowatch 446 basic Alarm installed in my car for now. Coz i am low of Cash. Will Upgrade it later.

Wanted to know if its good or not? Is there a big difference between the 446 basic and premium model apart from the extra sensors?

Some questions bout the Standard 446 alarm

1. Is the basic one Aus standard approved? getting insurance with Just Cars so need one that is approved.

2. Does it have a Siren?

3. Does it come with any sensors in the package?

4. does it have anti hijack coz Autowatch site says it does but when i called Action alarms they sed no.

Please help guyz...

Cheers,

Vish.

The 446rli alarm system is a good reliable all round alarm system which is Insurance approved, it can be an immobiliser only or an alarm as well. The sensors you get depend on the company supplying the product and what they offer with each package. If you car is turboed then you won't be able to arm the alarm while a turbo timer is running, only the doors will lock/unlock. You would have to wait for the engine to shutdown before arming the alarm.

The 446rli Standard does not have anti-hijack but it does have keyguard.

The 446rli Premium is more suited if your interested in hijack and you can arm the alarm and lock doors while the engine is still running, you can also stall the engine via remote before the turbo timer times out at any time while walking away from your car.

Cheers, :/

      R34 RB20DE NEO + T ONLY

      By Sxnjeet · Posted

      Hello, I'm trying to make this thread basically the thread with all the answers to common questions regarding specifically the RB20 DE NEO + T engine, that comes in the R34. Answers will and only should be provided by those who have done this conversion or actually have some relevant real life experience please. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments if you have any so other members can answer. I feel like this thread is really needed, especially with more Americans buying (unknowingly going to regret it too) rb20 neo r34s. My first question being - What do you guys use for tuning? I have purchased a haltech elite 2500 Plug and play kit for the rb25det NEO because the ecu plug is the same, but I am unsure if any of the pins would need to be repined to match. Second question that I see asked very often - After this conversion, did you install the boost solenoid/ actuator? I see many people doing a + T setup on their rb20 NEOs while running stock RB25DET NEO ECUs with no tune. I am wondering how they are going about doing that and consistently abusing the car because many of these people have had these untuned setups running for a very long time. That was my original plan, but my engine cuts out at 5 psi of boost using the stock ecu with no tune and no boost solenoid/actuator.

      interesting. ive read and heard otherwise over the past year. ive been doing this +t conversion on a rb20 neo using all oem rb25det neo parts including the ECU, and im having engine cut out issues when I hit around 5 psi of boost. Everywhere/everyone ive asked has told me its because I never wired in a boost solenoid/actuator to the ecu, so the ecu isn't getting the right signal once it hits 5 psi of boost, causing the engine to get shut off.

      Something strange is happening. I didn't touch the car since we last spoke on the forums. Yesterday was the first day of good weather, so i took it out for about 2 hours. It started up on first crank every time about 5 times total. I literally didn't do anything to do the car.

      I purchased this one. Very well priced and works great. I was rough with it to see if it will last and had no issues.  Teslong Two-Way Articulating Borescope with Light, Industrial Endoscope Inspection Camera with Articulated Probe, Flexible Mechanic Fiber Optic Snake Scope Cam for Wall Automotive Engine Inspect-5FT : Amazon.ca: Industrial & Scientific
