I was driving home the other day and the siren started going off while driving... thought thats a bit odd. but it turned off and didn't come back.

Now everything seems to be working appart from when i switch the car off the blue LED doesn't flash instantly. ie, it doesn't go straight into it's 30 second auto arm cycle.

It seems to take it about 1-2min THEN the LED starts flashing and starts its 30sec auto arm thing...

During this 1-2min i can lock the doors and arm it by pressing and holding (for 3 sec at least) the lock button on the remote. but still after 1-2min plus 30secs it beeps again like it's just auto armed...

really odd. Has anyone had one do this before?

sounds like it is going into "turbo timer mode" when you turn the key off. This is normal if you had the turbo timer feature wired and programmed in at the time of installation. If the engine is not still running when you turn the key off then it means the alarm wasn't wired for the turbo timer feature. Try to open your door before turning the engine off and see if it goes straight into the auto arming cycle, this will also confirm that the turbo timer feature is active.

It's been working perfectly for a year at least... so i don't think it's the install

good point about the turbo timer mode. I've never used it as one time i did try to use it and it just didn't keep the engine going when i tried to use it. so i stopped and gave up on it, figuring it wasn't wired for it or whatever. I'll try the door thing, but I'm sure the other day i did open the door before i turned it off and it didn't change.

I'm leaning on it just being farked too :P

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Victory · Posted

      All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.

      It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

      Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
