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

      EDIT: Just a little info what my tranny is "doing" :   For the long time the trans do this "bad" sound:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qs_iTXgDt40 It is literally the same sound and same symptoms(when i push the clutch it quites down) So is it really the shaft bearing?   Also:  i found this on forums: The RB20 and SR20 boxes are nearly indentical inside (rb20 has longer mainshaft)and suffer badly from bearing and selector failures when driven hard   The bearing is true and selector failure kinda too...it is "harder" to get into gears specialy when i drive a little bit hard...

      Pillar gauges

      See, that button sounds like perfection Duncan! My eyes really don't like light shining at them from a dash when I'm driving. Being part red colourblind, I've found for most cars that I can change colours on, I set everything to red, so my eyes see the elast amount of colour! I miss normal gauges in cars

      bro, knowing the Japanese in  the 90's, i wouldn't be surprised if they shared components across their model lineup.

      Maaaan so many "little" things  i rly hope my old RB20 would be "ok" and not too bad. I try to learn what and what not do i need. I look at crossmember at it looks different...even parts numbers are different. Wiring and all that i rly do not know...yeah someone mentioned the speedo thing. On that yoke clip. I rly do not know what can and cant be done "custom" so that is why iam asking to know and not be suprised 🙂  I know what it looks like
