Has anyone encounter this before?

The remote central locking system can lock the car while the turbo timer is counting down meaning ( engine still running)

I need to manual lock the car while turbo timer is counting down which is a pain in the ***!!!

Does anyone know how to solve the problem without having to reinstall a new alarm system? Can the wire be rewired somehow??

Called up a few auto technicans... They are saying that it is not a easy job and will cost something like 200 dollar to rewire the system...

Is that true???

I am living in Queensland, brisbane

Hope someone can help me or recommend me someone to do the job in queensland

Thanks

I don't understand the problem?

You can lock the doors with the remote but you have to lock the drivers door with the key??

By the sound of it your turbo timer has an immobiliser bypass while in the cooling down stage. This is a prefered option.

Hi markOhR33,

it is a fairly straight forward fix, just take it to Chris Rogers and get him to do it.

He knows his stuff.

Having your alarm working is worth the money, after all, it might be the only thing preventing someone stealing your precious ride.

OO_The4door_OO - FYI - this would not be the prefered option and would mean that your car would be very easy to steal, all I would need to do is find the turbo timer, trigger it and bang, there is your ignition, roll start it, the car is gone, you lost your ride.

It is possible to have muliple point immobilisation and a turbo timer and not have your car easy to steal. There is just a lot more wiring and people within the industry tend not to release this type of information. But i will assure you it can be done.

Actually frx026, if you have ever done the PIC programming for alarm/immobiliser modules, you'd know what goes on inside.

The simple function of the module is that one can lock the car and walk away while the motor is in the cool down stage. During this stage the alarm is armed. The purpose of that is so you don't have to stand around and wait for the turbo timer to run out, then you lock the car.

Now if some one came along how do they get into your car to "find the turbo timer, trigger it and bang, there is your ignition, roll start it, the car is gone, you lost your ride." if the car is LOCKED and if they actualy manage to open any doors the engine immediatly stops and the immobiliser points kick in???

Trust me markOhR33 manufacturers do this on purpose and why would they keep doing it if it was so easy to steal the car?

I've been installing alarms for years and now program my own alarm systems. My R33 has no more key to get in or start the car, every thing is done by the rolling code remote - remote engine start; unlocking the doors etc. There is no more ignition barrel but a keypad for me to put in a 8 digit code to access car functions and if any unauthourised access to the car happens there is a GSM remote module which calls my mobile to let me know the alarm has gone off. To add to that simple GSM tracking software lets me call the car to find it's location any where in the world down to a 5m radius.

Did that alarm in my spare time.

PJ,

did this one a while back. car has been sold since. same idea that I do with all of them.

justin,

would be interested to see who you work for. (fire me a pm.)

    • Hello! Long time lurker, been using the forums to address concerns and questions from afar for a while but I've struggled to find some answers so I guess its about time I made an account and formally asked some more knowledgeable people, since finding local skyline owners is hard (and shops that are knowledgeable or trustworthy to work on 'rare' cars are non existent out where im at, as skylines are quite uncommon to find in the wild around here). So the main 3 questions I have, 1: Steering rack has blown seals, well.. they kind of hold but they are not sealed properly anymore and as my R33 is my DD, i cant exactly rip the rack out and send it off or attempt to fix myself. As most refurb ones are around $1,100 or more shipped, and I have other things I need to work on around the car, I was seeking clarification on whether an S15 rack will more or less bolt right in, and whether a common mechanic could do any other required work to get it to fit. I ask, as I've found a supplier than can sell a manufactured as oem one for around 400, if not I'll likely order a used one from Jacks JDM, and take a risk on the seals there. The second question i have is that im replacing the front wiper cowl and have planned to buy 4 new clips and a new center clip but wasnt sure if there were any other clips that would also need to get replaced while I was at it. Given im sure any that are there now will simply break when I remove the old cowl... Last thing would be a fairly straight forward question, i think. If I manage (strong if, finding one has proven to be a pain) to find a R33 GTR spoiler/wing will it require much modification to bolt to a S2 R33 GTST? I've read the bolt patterns dont match but otherwise would bolt in, only options I have found with much luck is China stuff on ebay and carbonetics, which has a nice $650 shipping fee... so if anyone has any pointers where a US chap could locate one that would be great Random side question as well, the mirrors as I understand are mirror glass, and as im planning to polish my windows from water spots and surface scratches, i was hopeful cerium oxide would be fine for them too, as my research points to, but clarification is always nice. Any pointers would be appreciated, and while I have scoured the internet for answers if I missed a prior post somewhere that may answer these directly please point me towards it, as i must have simply missed it. I have seen a post here or there that has mentioned it, but I usually get 50-50 answers, or half answers... I dont have a lot of fab experience or mechanic experience, outside of hydraulic and pneumatic stuff I did in the military and with how hard it is to source stuff in the US, id rather not wing it and hemmoraghe money lol. Thanks guys! Sorry for the monumental first post haha
    • Yep, there's a very minor drift left that happens a few seconds after letting go of the steering wheel, but not enough to bother me. Enjoying the car still!
    • Got you mate. Check your email!
    • I see you've never had to push start your own car... You could save some weight right now...
