Hi all, I am after a new turbo timer and was wondering if theres a good one to go for. I have had a bit of a search and found this one to do the job and it the cheapest I could find

http://www.nengun.com/catalogue/product/18

Is it worth spending a bit more for more features?, I don't know where I would put one of those TT units if I got one so I like the long thin ones coz thats what I have at the mo

cheers

Tom

yeah, I wouldn't need anything like that, just a normal TT that keeps the engine running for programmable times....I guess the cheaper the better for me so can I get a new TT for less than the $85 for the Apexi one I linked?

EDIT: actually it comes to $130 with shipping from Japan

hahaha... i can understand how u feel on 2nd hand parts, ESP electronics. Personally, i wouldn't go that way either, unless i'm really hard up for it and it's wayy out of my budget. And try not to buy off ebay either, some dude got a reconditioned one, that sold as new, cause when the workshop opend up the apexi turbotimer, there were burnt marks and resoldering.

no offence to RR, but I'd rather buy new than secondhand

thanks anyway though  :O

Tom check if that's compatible with your car. I bought this a while ago from Nengun, sitting in a drawer & hasn't been installed. I just sit in my car for a bit, basically because you only need these when you are putting pressure on the turbo a fair bit, and letting the car idle for about 2 minutes isn't all that hard to do. Different case with 2 turbos I guess. :O

It costs $101 delivered to you in like 2-3 weeks from Nengun, $100 from me pretty much straight away, because you are just over in Beldon if you want it? It's new, in box, I opened it to have a look & that but didn't do jack shit with it.

Not talking about your penis are you? :lol:

lol :) , with that extracted from the sentence it would appear so. But no :D

ossie_21, how the hell does the shipping for that come to less than the Apexi onw which is smaller? :D and yeah, its compatible with my car

what the optional harness there?

The other thing is installing it, because I will need to tie it in with my alarm. I guess one option is taking it back to Action Alarms and get them to install it coz they tied my current TT in with the alarm when they installed it...

This timer looks bigger than it is (not another penis joke please :D ), it isn't all that big. I'm sure the same people that did your other one could do whatever you decide to get.

My turbotimer is installed with a bypass.. or rather my alarm Laserline top of the range has a bypass to allow me to lock the car while the engine is still running on the turbotimer and it'll automatically immobilise after the turbotimer dies. Which is pretty good i feel.

Thats what my Cheetah 777 alarm does, so maybe its best I take my new TT to the place that did my alarm....

sorry BNR34 I wants new :(

    • yeah I've never understood that either.... And to answer an earlier question, I write the date on open bottles and throw them if more than 12 months old (which they almost always are, because I don't need to bleed them unless I'm changing lines/calipers etc in between)
    • Nah, the one that hit the boot was a big steel locker, around 6 foot height, 4 foot wide and 2 foot deep, empty it weighs about 15kg and had about that amount of stuff in it The photo didn't give a good representation of the actual damage, the large ding on the passenger side was about a inch deep, the one on the driver was about 1/2 inch deep, right on the curve, where the inner boot frame doesn't let you get behind it with a dolly Basically the same issue with getting behind the damage on the centre of the boot We could have filled it all with bog, but my OCD would be triggered every time I looked at it, knowing what hides beneath  As for the locker, I did get the shits with it and put it in the scap metal bin, but, I pulled it out and it is now sitting in the garage at home full of car servicing stuff, cleaning gear and random tools, it's going to pay for it's indiscretions
    • Whilst I typically don't cheap out on things, if I can save some money, like $1000, on a clean straight panel, that gives me $1000 to spend on other stuff, basically free money really 🤔 🤣
    • Is the toolbox that damaged the boot seal the same item that fell on the car during the storm a while back?
    • Who are you to deny yourself? I’ve said this many times to myself and apart from getting what I really want, I go quiet for a while whilst working out what I just did to my savings and how will I afford what it cost, then, next payday…
