a couple of Doberman's / Rottweiler's that havent been fed in a while....

In all seriousness though, i think the best security are them posts that you bolt to the floor in between the car and the garage door.

And possibly an elaborate kill switch of some sort thats truly hidden away.

Hello all

Just wondering what people recommend / using for a security alarm system for a BNR34 GTR Nur please?

Kind regards,

Mathew

 

If your in Sydney I've used a guy, recommend from here, that could sort the car part out.

I cannot remember his name but if you want I can PM his number

That is for alarms and GPS and stuff.

The best security is to keep your location on the downlow and use the alarm gps stuff as the last layer of security.

The first layer is not letting people know where the car is

The second is area/access (home) security 

The third is cover (garage and car cover)

The fourth is hard obstacles (bollards)

The fifth is an car alarm and GPS

That keeps it nice and safe (ish) at home even when your not

if its locked up, autowatch did a decent unit - 457 RLI and the GPS unit to go with it. whoever does it needs to BURY both units. if the have the lower dash off only then it means the average joy rider will have it disabled in 30 sec. when I did these (search the forum for my name) it was a 2 day affair usually and I charged accordingly. dash completely out , unit buried and fully integrated into the harness and OE relays used for the disable points. even those were hidden well. I retired (not by choice) in early 2017 and do GPS telematics in the USA now for Verizon/Vodafone.

^^ correct.

where I live (I am in Texas)  there are only a few people that know where my R31 and F31 are kept. Only two people that know how the start the R31. myself and the mechanic that I use to work on it. (I stay too busy now to maintain the thing.) both cars have full time remote monitored GPS by a monitoring company.

Want to install an autowatch 573 for me when the time comes?

I no longer do car security :) . may focus of work now is with Verizon Telematics in the USA where I now live.
573 is a dongle and hasn't been available in australia for a number of years. last one I sold was in 2014.

I'm in the US, I think you can still buy one in Canada.

that changes things. if you are TX - then yes I will do it. far better to do a 457 though. I can set that up so only a tow truck will move that car. actually you could do a 674 as well.

      @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣

      I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia.

      Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.

      R33 fuel setup

      I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).

      As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
