So I'm going to need a security system for my new car. I know next to nothing about them, other than the few things I have read on here.

What alarm systems do you guys have in your Skylines, if any and are there any I should check out/avoid?

Also, I read that recently a bunch of the Melbourne guys paid for Chris Rogers to come down and do some installs for them as well as supply the alarm systems. Is there anyone interested in doing this again? PM me if you are, and I will start a topic in Group Buys and contact Chris and Lifted (the bloke who organised the last lot of installs).

This is something nobody should discuss on a public forum. Any decent brand will do.

It's the quality of installation that matters. Hell, a $150 system with a $700 install will stop damn near anyone without access to a flat bed truck.

I believe the man himself will confirm this :yes: (his rates are more reasonable than this of course)

Do you offer cheaper systems Chris? I enquired about the previous round but budget doesn't stretch that far

The extra cost he warrants is definitely worth it imo...wouldn't want him to cheap out on quality just to save a few dollars.

My custom job that finished recently with him (cos them Melbourne boys took priority :down:) cost just north of $1k. Was tempted to go a few hundred more for the 'watertight' treatment but felt it was overkill for a car like mine.

He also gave me some free stuff like a covering of concrete dust so I've now got the matte paint job I've always wanted :blush:

Oops, didn't think about that, lol. I'm guessing I should avoid JB Hi Fi install jobs? Allow me to re-phrase, then. What exactly should I look for in a system? ADR compliance is pretty much required, but are there any other features I should think about?

ADR , tracking option and someone that can install . $5 jb installs are not the go, forget viper products unless thatcham is mentioned.

Correct. Done properly with a decent unit flatbed will be the only way it moves.

      Looking for a part number for this part here

      By Duncan · Posted

      So....to find any R chassis part number, get your VIN (will be something like ER33-xxxxxx for you) and go to: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan and enter it. From there you have access to a web version of Nissan's part system, FAST. It is a bit tricky to get used to, so maybe have a shot and post up what you think.  You can also search by general model but note in some cases your car might have different options so VIN is safest.  On diagram 211 I got 14075-75T16 for Connector, Water Hose If I search for part 14053‑21U10 that you posted, that is also a water hose but not the one bolted to the plenum and 14075‑04U00 is the fitting where the water hose goes into the block.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Yeah now we are talking I much prefer coolers in the front middle because it lessens the chance of a small bump to a corner stopping the whole event. I was thinking the AT cooler can move out of the radiator, delete the AT/engine coolant interwarmer and mount a separate cooler with a thermoswitch somewhere further back as is common in racing, that would be one thing. Beyond that, the engine oil cooler is an obvious one to move to the wheel arch, potentially one on each side, but unused space is an issue. I did have a earlier pic with the bumper off but it doesn't show how busy the corners are: DS is full of the auto driving sensors and PS is totally fully of windscreen washer fluid reservoir But ultimately I was hoping to keep the AC, and the water/air heat exchanger is fundamental so it is not just the radiator that needs to be in front BTW here's airflow to the rad as it ran at the track (one horn is gone now and I'll remove the lights next time):
