I am thinking of putting an alarm into my r33, and i have done some research, for the central locking part we will need an actuator for the driver side,

and i noticed that most of the alarm systems dont come with an actuator, does that mean i have to get my own one?

and is there any wiring diagram for r33 here?

cheers

yes your car needs a door motor on the drivers door you can buy a single door motor kit from jaycar and can be used on most alarms i do hundreads of skyline alarms in sydney any questions just ask me

alright if you've seen hundreds of skyline alarm installs maybe you, or anyone could help me with my problem.

i was trying to install extra LED lights on to the light that comes on around the key ignition thingy when you unlock the car and turns off after approx 10sec of shutting the door (not really sure what thats called) but i think i shorted it but without blowing a fuse... theres still a little bit of power going to the light but not enough to fully power it or any others.

and i have no idea what i've done.

sad face.

what version 33?

and for the fellow that's done hundreds of cars - ABN or employer please..

I can vouch for hundreds of them - been working on these cars for the past 11 yrs.

if its a S2 then you have probably popped the smart entrance module and that's not a good thing.

Adding an actuator to the drivers door is one option but a poor one. The angle at which you need to mount the aftermarket actuator makes it unreliable. The actuator rod that conects to the original door locking rod will snap off after a while.

A beter option is to tap into the existing system. The car already has actuators in both doors and they work well. The trick is to feed a signal into the central locking module from the new alarm. I think I can figure out the connections if I had a circuit diagram for the R33. I have been searching for ages now for this circuit diagram, but no avail. The "chassis" manual for the R33 is rare and no electronic version seems to be available online. Those who have hard copies are keeping the manual close to their chess!

chris the compliance shop that did my car wired the drivers convience module out of the loop, I had to open up the drivers door to find the hack they did to over ride it. pm for how they did it.

returned it to normal now . also the light around the key surround is easy to fix. I changed mine to Blue LED, looks way better now.

done heaps of r33s and only ever seen 2 with a factory door motor in the drivers door and you can put the aftermarket door motor dowm the bottom and it lines exactly up strait and have never had any problems or had to go back and fix any they all have a factory switich not motor even 32 33 and all 34s have a factory motor exept n1

    • I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..
    • They do. The pale yellow translucent ones from Japan were .... I dunno. Useless? Whiteline and SuperPro are probably fairly similar. There's bound to be a range of different hardnesses amongst the dozens of options on the market. The simple fact is that the pineapples don't get up inside the bush at all. They just sort of exist in the space between the washer/bracket and the subframe's bush outer tube, and...exert a bit of force between them? Or something like that. I'm sure that with enough provocation, they will simply allow one to move wrt the other.
    • I'm not sure they came in different hardnesses? Going from memory only - I had set them up in the balanced setup. I also have poly bushes, so I have both poly bushes and pineapples. This is what my memory tells me at least. I'll have to take a look under there to be sure. The tramp was so bad that I managed to eject/kill a diff bushing, so those I know are stock. The tramp is bad enough that you are 200% sure you are doing severe damage to the car. It's not just chirping or vibration, it feels like you're hitting a speed hump/kerb 10 times a second. The issue has persisted between subframes! (I went from Hicas to non hicas subframe and replaced every bush a few years ago now) so I'm entirely lost. Every arm is factory.
    • Can recommend the Frenchys kit, been using it 2 years now with no issue, very happy with it.  Only thing for me was upgrading the thermo fan but I am super fussy on cooling.   Also interested in electric AC, partly for boot mount to have a clean bay and partly would love the idea of cooling off the car before i get in. The battery setup to do that might be tricky / expensive though.  Found this an interesting watch.    
    • I put Whiteline pineapples in my old 33, they came in a 6 pack of them, got rid of the axle tramp altogether, cheap, quick and easy install,  they were pretty solid units though...???high durometer???? and NVH was increased a fair bit How hard are the ones you installed?
