any suggestions?

Magicar!!!!!!:thumbsup:

[Impreza]

how much is compustar anyways? i just got quoted for $875 at audioconcepts....and i dont even have power locks on my car...if i wanna add that, it is an extra $100 per door..

[HRD2PLZ]

I paid $590 installed. It included keyless entry and the factory starter disable bypass. I have to go back now and have the trunk output installed.

$875 sounds about average compared to when I was shopping around. Good Luck.

Another good alarm would be a Clifford. I hear nothing but great things about them. Don't know how cheap they are though :dunno:

I can get you a viper alarm with remote start for under 5 bills installed. PM me if you want details.

[Impreza]

hey HRD2PLZ, where did u get ur compustar? i think i wanna get one now...is $590 including gst? sounds like a good price compared to audio concepts..

[max_boost]

Yah AutoDream sells and install compustar alarms. They probably have the best prices in the city

[Impreza]

does anyone know the range on the compustar??
i went to their website and they have two different models of the compustar, the 2WSS and the 2WFM, which one is the one for $590 at autodream?

[CRXguy]

The CompuStar webpage says 1/4mile(400m). But when I tested mine, the alarm was still working at 900m. I have the old model(blue remote).:dunno: :D

Thats the weird thing, today I was walking and 6-7 cars away I couldn't check my car! LOL it was like 10 meters I think haha Oh well, maybe some car was blocking its signals lol

And yet some days I can start my car from far far far far away lol

[HRD2PLZ]

Can you get me some info on the type of viper alarm?

[max_boost]

I think my compustar went whacko this morning. The remote started ringing and all the features on the pager lit up one after another.

[Blue Devil]

Time to replace your battery dude... :D

[Autodream]

we don't sell the spread spectrum anymore, because there are problem that I been having with them. We are doing them for $575 installed, this price does not include any security bypass of any kind.

[szw]

sr20det95, what other alarms do you sell? I am looking for a higher or middle-end alarm with no remote start.

[shadowz]

He sells DEI (viper, rattler etc..) go to his store and check it out or call them

[dj_honda]

[boi-alien]

[sillysilvia]

My friend told me to go to Autodream, but when I was Autotemp North they spoke very poorly about the guy who owns it and they said he use to work there but they let him go. I went over to Impressions and ran into this guy I used to talk to at soundsaround all the time Paul, nice guy , apparantley he now works there, that's where I'm getting my shit done for sure!

Do you remember who you talked to at Autotemp north? there are Blare, Jeff,don (a girl) and Tim the manager. because they never want me to go. but it slow down in Feb every year, so I talked to the manager to lay me off but he said no, cause he was afraid that I will not come back. finally I promise LZ the manager at the time, he now manage international in the south, that if he lay me off I will come back once it gets busy again, if not I quit any way so pick one, I got my lay-off paper the next day. I didn't keep my promise because I don't want to work as slave for ever. Autodream was for sale at the time so I bough it. I never in my 8 years installing got fired or any company letted me go. If any of you ever talk to Tyler at Audioconcept he was also at AutoTemp when I left there. Drew the manager at AudioConcept also Knows me When I was working for Innovation audio in Regina. ask anyone that I ever done work for and see if I did a bad job on their car. I install the same way I do on a civic as I would do on a BMW. so please don't pass this false information around untill you know its true

[D'z Nutz]

Can we please stop with the slandering? I don't want to have to close the thread (which has already started to go off topic), but I will if this continues.

If this thread doesn't go back on topic, I'm closing it.

[TomTom]

and also tonight i asked a friend that sells the viper 2way and owns the compustar and asked what he thought was better, he said the compustar, ill get more info why... just 1 mans 2c
Not mine

[BMWilli]

anyone want to hook me up with a good remote starter/alarm?

[Gondi Stylez]

talk to 12V!! hes a good installer, fair prices and excellent product!!:thumbsup:

[Hollywood]

Getting my remote car starter done at autodream this weekend actually. I have nothing but good things to say about Nguyen (the owner), and I would never go to anyone except who I trust.

[cidley69]

I been trying to get 12V to call or pm me, I want a starter/alarm and install from him. I got cash waiting to do the job, no reply yet. Tell then i bought a CLUB!

Relax man, he's super busy with so many people on the board and elsewhere waiting for his services. I've personally installed 4 starters for myself and my family and will continue to use him and recommend him. He's a great guy and I can assure you that he will respond as soon as he has a chance. It's well worth the wait.

Back on topic - does it have to be a 2 way paging system? If not, consider the starter/alarm combo that 12v is selling - 2500 foot range, auto/manual start, alarm, all the good stuff in an FM alarm but without the high cost (or LCD screen :()

[szw]

2500ft? that's a lot more than compustar advertizes! 1/4 mile which is what...1320ft? Does it beep to tell you it has actually turned on?

[hampstor]

Autodream did an excellent compustar install on my sentra. There was a problem with the module that was resolved quickly. Excellent prices and excellent service. Nguyen has done alarms on 2 of my cars, my friend's cars, a starter on my ex fiance's car, and a starter in my dad's car. I have nothing but praise for his work.
