I bought a polished 'gtr' key from Nissan, which fits fine. The local locksmith not only cut 2 test keys to make sure it was all good (and she let me have them for nothing), but she wrote down what the code was, so I could get more cut if needed (Now that I have 4 keys, I don't think it will be an issue!).

I guess that means my code was missing too....

how much was the key??

I just brought normal Nissan keys - about 13 bucks from Nissan spare parts. I was thinking about getting the one with the keyless entry (because i've got one already) but at $365...no way i'm paying that much for that (well i'm getting my alarm installed next week - there's my keyless entry. lol)

where can i gat a programable remonte key and how much will one cost. i checked at my local nissan dealer. they quoted me $230 + $60 program fee. can i get one cheaper as this seems way too expensive.

thanks

$230 is about the cheapest ive heard, where was this quote from ?

You can code them yourself, plenty info on net, pm me if you cant find.

When i lost my only genuine key i got the locksmith to "read the cuts" on my crappy backup (it was pretty bad - hard to turn on ignition and would not open the boot at all) - then cut it on a cheap key - went out and tested then got two genuine blanks done to code.

He also stamped the code on one of the keys for me.

Anybody know any details about the actual key part of the whole assembly for series 2 standard key?

Especially can I use a standard key, chop it, and attach it as per the right-hand-side of the picture below (thereby using a second-hand key assembly with my own actual 'key' part which I can get copied). Is there any use to this? Anybody tried it?

It's got me wondering why the numbers have been ground off the keys, Maybe a security issue in Japan or something, if someone gets the number they can get a key cut, very strange.

Still got my numbers on keys for both the black S2 RS4 and the silver S1 RS4.

    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
