Key blanks

[JimX]

Where can I get a decent key blank from for a reasonable price? So far all I can find is a Nismo blank for about $100, and a GTR blank for about $60 (I think). I don't have a GTR otherwise I would get a GTR blank. Are there any other options? I really don't wanna fork over $100 just for a spare key, but nor do I want to buy the $5 generic type you get at the local key cutter's.

Even the normal Skyline key (without remote button) would be good enough, if it were relatively cheap. Nissan Australia probably want to charge me $100 for it and make me wait 4 weeks for it to arrive from Japan

Al, are they the indicators in a S1 front bar? I parked into a tow bar today and it went right through my lhs indicator, so will probably need a new one.

also, do u have a part number. cheers,

p.s - sorry for hijacking key thread. I am also interested in a good nissan blank, not a shitty one like the one i got with the car. so if anyone knows a good price for something with nissan written on it that fits a gtst...

Do all Nissan dealers charge the same price? Because I got a quote for a plenum gasket from Ryde Nissan, they wanted $85 for it, and they wanted the full amount up-front so they could order it from Japan, and it would arrive in 4-6 weeks!

Edit: Which Nissan dealers (esp. in Sydney) are Skyline-friendly? ie, those that will keep some parts in stock, and will know what the hell I'm talking about when I ask for something like a Skyline key, or a bonnet strut clip, or a headlight assembly, etc.

no one really looks at the key anyway unless its a GTR one

[T0nyGTSt]

Where can ya get Nismo keys cheap?

I want one.

Tony, you just created a paradox. You just used the words "Nismo" and "cheap" in the same sentence. Oh no, I've just done it too! I hope the universe doesn't suddenly implode.
