Ok one of our GSR's wont start, it sounds like the battery is going flat (the alarm dies and sounds like a sick bird kind of noise) but then we put the battery in our other GSR and it starts up with no issue. Has anyone got any ideas?

sounds like your alarm is getting set of but doesn't have proper power thus using the backup battery if it an immobilizer unit then find what cut and rejoin car should fire up

check your battery earths to motor
I had an issue where the strut tower was getting hot while struggling to crank.
I had twin battery system eath cables everywhere, saw smoke coming up from the left strut tower??? while trying to turn it over.
earthed from block to K frame on passenger side (coz theres a threaded nut in the Kframe.there)
and VAROOM! not had a problem since.
the alarm will have a low voltage chirp or when you crank, it dips below the 9volts more units classify as no volts
so you will get the sick canary tone. it will only be seeing low voltage due to earth issues

Itz amazing what a bad earth or even power source can do to your electrics. Go check the condition of the wiring for the siren and alarm main unit earthing points and where its drawing its power from as your first ports of call. Like Troy said, could be that simple.

Hey Hendo, I had all sorts of problems one morning in my GSR. Turned out it was the pos terminal. theres a few wires and terminals there with that white powder creating big resistance, just clean every part.My alarm was going on and off car would then idle but no power and the abs light came on the dash.All in peak hour traffic of course..

Well i had a chance to check the alarm battery today and its not that, 6v battery and reading 6.89 so nice and strong, now ill check the connections and fuses and maybe grab the earthing kit of the old orange cb track car to see if that helps.

All sorted, cleaned the terminals and replaced the neg terminal. I would never have thought that it was a connection issue from the way the car was behaving.
