wants to have GPS, Alarm, Immobiliser. Would like to track through Internet as well as smartphone.

Had a viper alarm fitted. Immobilised, microwave-sensor, shock and glass. Cost $900 including install. Would cost more to include remote start, window or boot operation but I dont need that shit.

You can d/l an iPhone app that tracks your car, locks, unlocks and can start it but you have to pay subscription, didn't bother with that either, bit of a gimmick. Plus, if I lose my phone I don't want some prick starting or tracking my car.

If its the group buy model from sa (jaycar)

I wouldnt use it , it has restrictions that may limit the ability to track the car in certain areas

Hardware is substandard for aussie conditions

The full unit ebay options work fine in most cases

Similar to mongoose model with external gps and cell antennas and alloy case

The viper one has benefits and drawbacks like the fee for monitoring access and upfront cost is a bit high

Software wise the ebay one works fine and is accurate in limited cell areas and inside brick buildings that i tested

And can be used on most if not all smart phones without added software

      City of Casey - This is obscene!

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Sounds like it may all just be some baseless outrage stoked by the carexplore guy? As in the linked social media outrage on facebook just goes back to carexplore as a source again. Further shown by the council response that nothing actually has changed: "The Private Land Use Permit has been part of the Casey Community Local Law for a number of years. It's important to clarify that this permit is not new, and no changes have been made to the permit or the Local Law in relation to the permit." The full council response in Prank's link sounds reasonable to me. Saying that as someone who neither lives there nor has a front yard to call their own

      Clutch hydraulics are also all good, looks like a brand new slave cylinder and everything bled up well. No idea what the actual clutch is, and I don't intend to pull the box off on the floor to find out, so unless we have trouble on the dyno or at shakedown that will remain a mystery for the new owner

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      Front brakes are G4 8 pot calipers over 330mm discs with braided lines. Everything looks good, pretty sure these are off my old 350. Pads are brand new and judging from gold colour are Winmax which is what I also run on my race car, Neil and I both sourced brake stuff from Matty at Racebrakes Sydney who really knows his stuff Everything has bled up nicely with all new Motul RBF600 fluid, there were 2 loose hard line connections and the calipers were new on the car so I ended up doing it 3 times but it is perfect now

      So, starting with the rear brakes. They look like standard R33 GTST, and will need new pads shortly (less than 5mm material, probably only 1 day left). The slotted discs (probably DBA) are near new at 18.01mm and the lines are braided
