Last time I had an alarm installed at my place the dude backed my car (not the skyline) into my letterbox, what a tool! I got a free alarm but had to replace my rear bumper, hmm I don't know who got a better deal.

Anyway you might want to move the car to a nice open space where he/she has no reason to be moving it.

I too got mine at autoworx...

But Paul doesn't do the install himself.

According to the Owner manual thingo that comes with it, it is done by 'Euro Auto Electrical and Mechanical Repairs.' Mobile number is 0418 927 702.

They seemed to have done a good job on mine, and that of other Autoworx customers so may be worth a try.

I ended up choosing audiocom, the guy knows exactly what hes talkn about and said it wont be a problem hooking up an aftermarket turbo timer. He knows his stuff! Installs them all the time. He said no one has ever come back with a problem.

Everyone else i asked just ummed and ahhed.

Which shows they arent confident and dont know shlt :P

just over 600 i think

It costed a little more than the other place i was going to get it done but they were unsure of how to do everything, and im very willing to pay more for quality.

They can come with turbo timers but it costed a bit more i think to get it to work with my aftermarket one.

Im not sure about other alarms but i want something thats close to the best for my car :D

This one comes with lotsa good features

i have been less than impressed with Autowatch the two times i have used them.

Maybe i have had bad luck :)

The alarm would tend to go off in weather changes (hot to cold) and randomly on one of the cars. Most likely the installation, but I got it installed from quite reputable shops.

Cyclops was my last alarm which i preferred.

My GF's car had an AutoWatch alarm in it, installed by her dad (an auto electrician) but the control unit or something shat itself after about 2 years and was doing random things and setting the alarm off etc.

My car has a AutoWatch immobiliser that was in the car before I bought it, and it was installed by Action Alarms in Balcatta, I havn't had a problem with it, and hope to upgrade to the alarm and central locking when I can afford it.

I got the autowatch installed in my car with the inbuilt turbo timer option and ive never had a problem with it. It was installed when i bought my car from Autoworx. Cost me $450 for the 456 RLI remote alarm immobiliser. Euro Auto Electrical did the install.

    • If that's the wiring from the factory, I'd be inspecting the loom everywhere.   Any signs of that anywhere else, and seriously, I'd get rid of the car ASAP before the electrical gremlins make it worthless, or it goes up in flames on its own. That is scary how that insulation is failing!
    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
