Lost my freaking original R32 GTR key on the weekend (ahh the perils of clubs that don't close). I have spares but they were cut badly and only seem to work in the ignition, and badly at that.

Does anybody over in Japan know if Nissan can supply the original ready-cut keys (not just blanks) for a car that old ('89)? I have a mate in Okinawa that I can get to receive it and send on.. but just wonderin.

Spose otherwise I just have to get another blank and get a locksmith to cut it??

they dont supply pre cut keys. nissan (either japan or aus or anywhere) sell only blank keys.

just buy a blank from nissan aus. it may need a little linishing after being cut to work nicely.

Are you in Australia?

Just Jap sell gtr key blanks.

Get one of those and grab one of your keys that "were cut badly". Bring them both to a locksmith.

Ask to talk to a locksmith in the shop, don't talk to the counter chick or the apprentice.

Ask them to "read the cuts" your crappy key and get them to cut a new "key by code" on a regular blank, just to make sure it works good and so they don't accidently stuff your gtr blank (they're about $50 ea for a gtr blank). If it works good then get them to cut it to your gtr blank.

It'll probably cost you about $20 - $30 to get that done from a locksmith.

Any Nissan Dealer can get you an original GTR key and have it cut if you know the code.. Northside Nissan in Perth did this for me recently..

Standard keys were like $10 or $15 and the GTR keys were like $65.. This is definitely the way to go, but you need to know the code..

Have fun!!

I bought a Nismo key last year when Nengun still had them, paid $45. Nismo stopped making them so places will run out of stock soon (I think I saw some on Nismo.com). When I got mine cut the guy said that the type of key was typically hard to cut, but it has worked everytime for me.

Great collectors items now :)

I am thinking of putting my key away and having the Nismo item or spare i had made to use.

To often these keys are taken for granted and some people just think they cant be lost.

I have the code marked on the spares aswell just in case,

Anyway good luck at the locksmith if u didint have your code.

Thanks all - very helpful information. Unfortunately, regardless of the number of times I thought about it, I didnt write that damn number on the key down. Can see it in my mind... 5788.. 5978.. lol.. useless

Everyone take this chance to organise your backups -- I was blase about the whole thing, "I am so good with my keys", "I never loose sh$t" -- one seriously heavy night out and I pretty much lost everything (well.. someone definately took it all, but I was not being careful).

Have a couple of blanks on the way from UAS -- will do as KeyMakeR33 said and get them to read the cuts and cut to code on a cheapie then cut my goodies -- then ill be able to actually get into my boot again !!

Cheeeeers!

      Car Rotisserie

      By Shoota_77 · Posted

      Hi guys, has anyone either purchased or built themselves a rotisserie for their car before? I can only just justify the need for one hence why I should just make one but at the same time, if I make one I can kiss another 4 weeks of potentially productive car working time goodbye because I'm building a bloody rotisserie....  I mainly want it for the application of the body deadener.  Cleaning the old stuff off, priming and then colour over the deadener doesn't worry me, it's just the application using the Schutz Gun that I feel would achieve a significantly better finish painting it side on and keeping the Schutz Gun upright.  I don't think they would work well on the side let alone almost upside down for some areas.  If the product I use (Terosun, etc) could work through a HVLP ok then it might be ok to apply without the rotisserie.   I can get one of these style ones for about $1200 which is pretty good value-     I reckon if I made one it would cost around $500 but it's more the time that it would take is more of a killer than the cost.  They look to hold their value pretty well second hand so I could always sell it after using it and realistically only lose $200-$300 at worst.  Or keep it and buy another project when this one finally sees the light of day... Anyone selling one...? Cheers!

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      While it is a very nice idea to put card style AFMs into the charge pipe (post intercooler, obviously), the position of the AFM and the recirc valve relative to each other starts to become something that you really have to consider. The situation: The stock AFM is located upstream the turbo, and the recirc valve return is located between the AFM and the turbo inlet, aimed at the turbo inlet, so that it flows away from and not through the AFM. Thus, once metered air is not metered again, neither flowing forwards, or backwards, when vented out of the charge pipe. When you put the AFM between the turbo outlet and the TB, there is a volume of pressurised charge pipe upstream of the AFM and there is a volume of pressurised pipe downstream of the AFM. When the recirc valve opens and vents the charge pipe, air is going to flow from both ends of the charge pipe towards the recirc valve. If the recirc valve is in the stock location, then the section between it and the TB doesn't really matter here - you're not going to try to put the AFM in that piece of pipe. But the AFM will likely be somewhere between the intercooler and the recirc valve, So the entire charge pipe volume from that position (upstream of the AFM, back through the intercooler, to the turbo outlet) is going to flow through the AFM, get registered as combustion air, cause the ECU to fuel for it, but get dumped out of the recirc valve and you will end up with a typical BOV related rich spike. So ideally you want to put the AFM as close to the TB as possible (so, just upstream of the crossover pipe, assuming that the stock crossover is still in use, or, just before the TB if an FFP is being used) and locate the recirc valve at the turbo outlet. Recirc valve at the turbo outlet is the new normal for things like EFRs anyway. In the even of a recirc valve opening dumping all the air in the charge pipe, pretty much all of it is going to go backwards, from the TB to the recirc valve near the turbo outlet. But only a small portion of it (that between the TB and the AFM) will pass through the AFM, and it will pass through going backwards. The card style AFMs are somewhat more immune to reading flow that passes through them in reverse than older AFMs are, so you should absolutely minimise the rich pulse behaviour associated with the unavoidable outcome of having both a recirc valve and an AFM in the charge pipe.

      Yep, in my case as soon as I started hearing weird noises I backed off the tension until it sounded normal again. Delicate balance between enough tension to avoid that cold start slip and too much damaging things.

      I'm almost at a point where I feel like changing the alternator. Need to check the stuff you mentioned first though.
