i just installed my turbo timer, and made it work along with my alarm. its so easy, that i cant belive some of us every thought of this as a problem.
first of all, there IS a turbo timer harness that works with our car! any harness labled to work with a 93-96 supra will work with our car. i used a blitz turbo timer, and this is the harness i got. if you want to doubble check if your are buying the right one (if going with another brand TT) just google something like "apexi turbo timer harness ST205 " and use the part number they give you for that harness. this is the one i used: TY-04 = BLITZ TURBO TIMER HARNESS - 51153 now for the "hard" part of making it work with your alarm. normally your alarm box connects to 2 wires from your igniton. located the point where it was spliced into your ignition wires. there should be a black Ignition wire its spliced into. disconnect the alarm wire that runs to it. this will make the alarm think that the car is NOT running, and allow you to arm the alarm system at any time. THATS IT. now you can take you keys out, get out of the car, arm the alarm, and walk away, while the turbo timer counts down on its own and keeps the engine running.

with most alarms the "auto arm" is a feature that can be turned on or off. Get your manual and program the alarm not to auto arm.

Get your manual and program the alarm not to auto arm. the thing is, the alarm was installed on the car by the previous owner, and he didn't give me any manuals or anything. all I know about is is that it is a clifford. I've found some of the components of it, such as the box with an adjusment screw for adjusting the sensitivity. I think I've found the main unit before, but it's way up in the dashboard. if you take out the vent to the left of the steering wheel, you can see part of it, to give you an idea how far up there it is! --------------------  94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |
