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.

    • Latest round of updates on the car. I purchased and installed a SWS clutch slipper to help with 60ft times and got some second-hand good condition 275/40R17 Hoosier DR2 radials. Test and tune in November showed the tyres were an upgrade over my over 15 year old mickey Thompson's and I got a 1.8 second 60ft and pb et of 11.71 but even then, that run wasn't great due to rain and driver error (the event got called off 10 minutes later fast forward to the weekend just gone 25th of Jan and there was finally a break in the weather to let racing happen. The first run the track was slippery and only managed a 12.1@129 Second run the track was better and got a new pb et and mph: 11.54@131   Lith and I then worked out that I installed the previously mentioned clutch slipper incorrectly and its never been working, and I had just been dumping the clutch the entire time, we also noticed it was on street boost and not race boost. So I lined up for a third run with the car turned up in the first two gears, but the passengers side axle objected to clutch dumps and left the chat which stopped my weekend.   so there will be another attempt in the future once I replace the tyres as they rubbed and are stuffed now. but a low 11 should be on the cards.
    • Ceramic coating and heat shielding, you mean?
    • Turbos don't require pulling the motor apart so that's "easier". I would recommend the Nismo R3 turbos instead if you want to do stock twin turbo. It doesn't make as much power as the 2530s but it's only like ~50 whp off the mark and should have better response (ball bearing CHRA, slightly smaller turbo). A local that went with a Garrett G30 and 6boost manifold recently nearly burned his car to the ground after the hood insulator started melting and and burning so if you go single turbo I recommend doing a lot of research and validation work to make sure you don't do the same.

    • 100% is gyprock, I agree. Slip of the keyboard. Haha! I left my indicator bulbs out to save a bit of weight.
