i have just installed my turbo timer and i bought one of those adapters so i didnt need to cut any wires, but my problem is when i switch the car off the engine still runs which is cool until the timer does its thing but when i go to arm the car only the doors lock. anyone know how i can interface the alarm with the timer or anywhere i can go get it done.

any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated

I agree although my skyline has a working interface alarm/ turbo timer. But it was like that, and i never ever use the turbo timer unless i do an occasional track day but turbo times are just annoying, and to many dramas. I would suggest removing turbo timer (Useless function ) unless your smashing your car for long periods of time on the road which we hope your not :/

yeh i know but since i have it i might as well use it. asked a few auto sparkys and got different views. some say u need a module in ur alarm, some say change it to igniton key side, some say chuck a couple of relays in.

yep .. piss the timer off..

Hi chris

I've heard this a few times in regards timers and alarms. I'm currently running a timer in my R32 however would like to install an alarm and remote central locking. Is there any way for the timer and alarm to work harmoniously together or is pissing the timer off the best option. If so why? Thanks in advance for your time and knowledge.

(cynical mode )

so you want me to come take your car in the middle of the night ? may as well you have made the 3 basic things a lot easier for me to access..

(/cynical mode)

in all honesty find a unit that has one built in or one that will allow a timer to work with it.

autowatch have them built in and they can be wired accordingly with various countermeasures. ( customers of mine know what this means - send me a PM and I will explain it.)

mongoose will go either way. they have the ability to act as a timer or will work with one IF they are setup correctly.

its more about install than alarm though.

      R33 RB25DET oem turbo replacement options

      If you are fine with China turbos, Maxpeedingrods makes a bolt on turbo. Ive had mine for two summers now and it seems to be holding up ok.

      R33 RB25DET oem turbo replacement options

      By KyoyaR33 · Posted

      Howdy all Im in a little predicament and wondering what everyone’s thoughts are? I’ve had my long block rebuilt and am in the market for a turbo due to my old one having metal shavings from crank bearings (cause of rebuild) go throughout the turbos oil lines and there wheel has a little play. I’m not really aiming for any power, just trying to keep it as oem as possible, but I can’t find a turbo that’s built for the stock ecu or find something that would be a standard replacement. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions

      How's everyone going? Just a shout-out introducing myself. I'm James, I live on the north side of Brisbane. I bought an R33 that had been left to rot in someone's front yard for 14 years. Apparently, it has immobiliser/fuel issues. Long story short, it's suffering from a seized engine, plus whatever else turns up once it runs. The car is pretty good considering it sat for so long. It pretty much died after being imported. It has a bunch of Jap parts and a full Top Secret body kit. It's painted Fiat Turchese Festival, or aqua blue if you're not French. Another project to throw money at!

      Is the Clock Spring and Steering angle sensor the same thing?

      By silviaz · Posted

      So the clockspring is responsible for the indicators cancelling on their own? I thought that was the function of that white thing in the center (any idea what it's called?)

      Can you log IAT? Whilst WTA coolers have their place, doing any sort of sustained run is not one of them There are fixes that slow down the heat soak, like ice boxes, which don't last that long, and interchillers, which are fairly expensive, up grades to the WTA cooling radiator, which may require a bigger pump, and upgrades to the reservoir size,  and upgrades to the cooling fans, but, it all still heat soaks, and takes ages to come down in hot weather  For a turbo, that isn't locked into WTA like my PD blower is, can you not possibly swap to a nice air to air intercooler????, it would be better for sustained runs then, and have alot less things that could go wrong in my opinion
