Remote Car Starters!

[Neeper]

Hello CP Members!!

I don't want to say it, but winter coming. If you haven't got a remote starter yet, you should consider it. You'll wonder how you ever lived without it. I advertised last year as well on here for CP members. I only ended up doing one person from here!! Before taking your business to the big box stores like Future Shop, please consider my little shop first. We carry Autostart and Compustar. My installer has over 10 years experience with installs and I promise it will be done right. Lifetime warranty on the labour. Prices range from $149-$449 depending on your needs.

Please PM me or call me for details: 301-5307
My name is Johnny.

edit: I forgot to mention all CP members with at least 25 posts will receive free install on power door locks. A $35 value.

Our Address: #11 - 1339 40th Ave N.E.

[Wookie]

So if I wanted a basic run of the mill started for a 1996 Nissan Pathfinder (with factory power door locks) what am I looking at?

Apparently there was one in it previously, but it stopped working, and I ripped the antenna from inside my car because it was dangling around rearview mirror level.

What other services do you offer?

Where are you located?

[Neeper]

If your pathfinder is an Automatic then the starter is only $149.99 for you for a basic starter. Locks are free for you as a member of CP.

We also sell aftermarket performance parts, car audio and such.

What differentiates between a $149.99 starter and a $500.00 starter?

[Neeper]

CP Member 4X4 just got a starter installed by us. Thanks Mike!

[4X4]

Yes I did... And it works great. Great price. Great service. Plus, you can hang around with Johnny and talk Flames while the install guru does his thing.

Thanks Johnny and Paul.


Edit: Forgot to add that I pulled up the shop at 1:30 and was back on Deerfoot by 3:00. Barely affected my day.

[ken0042]

$149 is installed? Or is installation over and above that?

[Neeper]

installed!!

[Papa Gino]

wow Ill have to bring my new Chevy Van on over soon!

[Neeper]

Aww... we've only had 2 CPer's since I started this special.

Where is everyone? Oh I know.. it hasn't snowed yet!! Everyone likes to wait until it starts snowing.

FYI: Future Shop, Best Buy and some other stores will not do manual transmission. We will, so come see us.

[Incinerator]

Yes Neeper is cool, get your starter from him!

Should we get a car starter from him cuz he's "cool"? or because you did and you are very happy you did?

Not trying to be a smart ass, I really want to know

:lol: Yeah I got a starter from him last week and it's nice to walk into the car nice and toasty on a chilly night with the buns warmer, the heat and the stereo already on :D

How much did it cost you?

[Incinerator]

I went with the cheapest one, $149 + factory alarm bypass + immobilizer bypass on an '05 Accord, $303 tax in, done in an hour and a half or so. If you have an older car you won't need all those bypasses, then it's just $149 + tax.

[4X4]

Yes. I have a '97 Jimmy that did not need the bypass. I paid $160 including tax.

You're really not going to find it much cheaper anywhere else. If you do, it'll likely be at a place like Crappy Tire or Future Shop and trust me when I say that you do not want to go to either of those places to get this kind of work done. You'll end up with more problems than you bargained for. Plus, you'll likely have to drop off your car for 5 hours while they work on it, then have to bring it back the next day because it mysteriously stopped working. At least, I did with my old truck.

Future Shop bad.

Custom Auto good.

[KevanGuy]

Neeper is a good guy and his shop does great work.

[Bean]

Sounds like Neeper is offering some grade A stuff.
PM sent.

[Neeper]

Wow, thanks for the props dudes!

[Neeper]

Man, I don't know whether to welcome this lovely spring like weather or curse it!!

[return to the red]

hey neeper, I heard through the grape vine that remote starter on 05 Mazda 6 is a little more difficult, this true?

Paul used to work at FS with my cousin Mike C. but he is a tough guy to find spare time to get one done by him. maybe next time In Calgary I will have to swing buy before xmas

[Ace]

yeah but will my car make that little annoying beep when i lock and unlock the doors (since it's after market installed). What about my headlights and tail lights will they flash and let me know i pushed the button properly? :huh:

Your factory remote should still work same as before, except newer Hondas where the factory remote is deactivated when the car is running as a safety feature. I needed a bypass for the factory alarm and another bypass for the factory immobilizer.

[Tower]

Smack it, flip it, and rub it down with baby oil... Installed.

I don't have anything right now, but i'd like the keyless entry to work as if it was factory installed, is that possible?

[Incinerator]

Anything in this world is possible as long as you got the $$ man :lol: Yeah if you don't have anything on right now it should be super easy since it's a clean slate and there's nothing to bypass.


Neeper you owe me commission for doing all your advertising man :p

Last night I started my car, which was parked 2 blocks behind the Calgary Tower, from inside the saddledome! Yes I know it was warm out, but I wanted to try out the new starter that I had just bought off of Neeper. These guys did an amazing job with my car. It turns out I have a very tricky ignition system (resistance triggered) and it took 5 hours to install, but they still made sure I had the car when promised, and stayed late to make it happen. Its a very clean install, and it works great. Neeper went out of his way again and again (including driving across the city to pick up a unit for me) and was excellent at always calling me back and following up.

No, he did not pay me to write this, but after going through many experiences that were pretty bad relating to cars I thought I'd let people know that good shops still do exist, and this is one. The Delorean in the back was also something cool to check out. Thanks Neeper!

What model did you end up getting?

[Bill Bumface]

What model did you end up getting?

The newest 2-way starter (not alarm) from autostart. Can't remember the model number..

About 7-8 years ago when I was a youngen I opened the door and clicked the remote start for my moms jeep. I closed the door, turned around, and looked out the window to see the jeep bookin it through the yard. It flattened a 20 foot tall evergreen, destroyed 2 wooden fences. Luckily it was one of those rare days it was not parked facing the house or garage. Also lucky it din't do that to my mom at work (which is a school) and mow down a bunch of little kids. So you might wanna check it out before you try the remote starter.

Shouldn't you have an emergency brake on?

These starters are smarter than that. For an auto, they have to be in park, so no danger.

For a manual, you have to place them in ready mode while the ebrake is up, your foot is off the brake and clutch while the car is running. This means the car knows its in neutral. When you put it in ready mode and take the key out, it keeps running. Now when you exit the car and lock it, the unit knows you aren't in there anymore, its still running so its not in gear, and it will allow remote starts. If you open the door or hit the clutch or the brake, you can no longer remote start. They are 100% safe.

[Redrum]

Well not 100% because its a true story, but yeah just make sure some jackass didn't install it.

[Bill Bumface]

^Crappy starters don't have the same safety system. I believe your story, I've heard of a guy putting his truck through the garage door. I think almost all new starters are safe.

[Neeper]

I just wanted to say thanks to 4X4, Tower, Hulkrogan and Incinerator for your guy's business. Thanks for taking a chance and trying us out. I know you'll be very happy with your starter.

[Neeper]

Damn it's cold. Sure is nice to go outside into a warm car. Wouldn't you say Hulkrogan?

We are finally getting busy again with starters. Don't forget to book a time with us. Remember, your big box stores like FS and BB, do not do manual transmissions.

[FlamesKickAss]

What system would work best with a after market alarm or would you suggest just going with a combo and take old one out? That's kind of a dumb question though right

[Neeper]

I would highly recommend losing it! First thing is you will be carrying around 2 remotes. Which can be a burden. Second, these starter have range that greatly exceeds an alarm. If you have starter kill on your car, you would need to disarm your car, before you can remotely start it. But... what if your starter remote can reach, but your alarm one can't? Now you are limited to the range the alarm has, making your long range starter useless. This is especially true if you get a 2 way unit. If you can afford it, go for the combo!! You get the huge range for both alarm and starter. The best part about the 2 way is, if you are within range and your alarm goes off, your remote will page you.

[Neeper]

Thanks to ACE for your business. I hope you enjoy your new 2 way starter! No more cold driving for you.

I just used it for the first time at lunch, and it was nice not to freeze. It's a nice shop, and it's good to know I have a lifetime warranty on the labour. My only complaint is that the credit card machine was broken :( -- no points for me.

I'm definatly glad that I went with the 2 way -- knowing for sure that it started is a good thing!

[Incinerator]

:lol: Neeper you still haven't fixed your credit card machine yet?

[Tron_fdc]

Fix your CC machine and let me know how much a starter is for a 2005 Tundra....I'm sick of cold!!

[Deelow]

Hey neeper, Do you have quick instructions on how to set your two way starters to fire on a timer at night? I recently moved and can't find my manual. Anyway, my car has no block heater so I can't plug it in....a couple starts at night may be instore.
Thanks.

AS-1424 HF $149.99 (Manual Tranny add $50)

I have a '91 Honda CRX Si that came with some cheapo alarm. I'd like to have that replaced with the new unit above, and also replace my driver side door lock actuator. What will I pay all said and done?

Thanks.

[NuclearFart]

Hey Neeper, kind of an odd question but oh well:

Would you guys have the expertise on aftermarket installations of scissor doors? Do you work with porsches?

Did I reply to you yet??? If I didn't, I am terribly sorry.

$199 for the starter you want. And for the lock actuator it's $100 including labour and part.

[Neeper]

I am dissapointed to announce my shop is officially closed. We tried and tried to cut it, but just couldn't. I've moved on to my new full time career as a photographer. For those CP members who had remote starters done through my old shop, I will still be here to help you with any problems should it arise. My former partner/installer has told me he will still take care of any of the warranty issues, escpecially his installs. So don't fret, I am sure none of you will have any problems anyways. These things just don't break for no reason. And the install won't "break" for no reason, unless it was tampered with.

Thanks for all your business, CalgaryPuck!

[Reaper]

Sorry to hear that, Neeper. I was actually thinking about getting a Remote Car Starter for my wife for xmas.

[Draug]

Crap. What a bummer.

I talked to you last spring about my remote starter that was acting wierd and failing. I never did get around to bringing it in to get the wiring checked, and to figure out what was going on. I just never got around to it, and now you are closed.

Can you recommend a trustworthy and capable place to take my car? Somewhere that I can feel comfortable saying "My remote starter is acting up, find the problem and fix it" without worrying about new problems being fabricated.

Would your installer, or you, be interested in doing the side job outside of the business?

[Neeper]

Like I said, we will assist anyone who got a starter from us. Check your PM
