Hey all. Just wondering if anyone has purchased a spare key for their R34 ?

I want a spare one so I went to Mister Minute and they don't stock a suitable key ( even just the blade without the central locking buttons ). I've been to almost every key place I can think of and no joy so I went to Nissan and guess how much they quoted me for a "KEY".............

$422.35 :yes::(

OK, so it has the central locking BS in it but it doesn't even have an immobiliser built in and yet they want $422.35 for a fcuking uncut key ?!?! For that kind of money the key should be able to perform oral sex on me ( and damn well too )

And yes, R34 keys are different to R33's, R32's etc etc.

So, are there any realistic options available that you guys know of ?

I got a spare key cut at a keysmith at Chatswood Westfield basement near to the coles or woolies. Just tell them that there's no special chip or anything. Cost me 5-8 bucks if i rem correctly.

edit- for $422.35 they better take it in all 3 places and bring their hot twin sister along..

not sure if it's different from store to store cuz I onlt went to 1 store. On the key it says 'Edmond's" I think it's a generic key thing?

here's a picture of it, don't look good, but would look like Keira Knightly to me if I ever loose my original key.

cheers

I hear what your saying about the price of the key. I was quoted between $550 to $400 for the key unit. One option is to order the key blank blade from Alibaba.com. Ask nissan for the electrical circuit board inside the key for the central locking (cost $130). Encode it (instruction on another thread).

It's a cheaper option and it works.

only time you need a geniuine key in an R34 is if you have a GTR. the rest fo tehm work on a copy. if you want the remote entry key I can get them cheaper but they are still expensive.

    • Just a follow-up on this topic. From what I can tell so far the rusty residue on the engine block might be unrelated to a coolant leak or maybe just older than anticipated. After driving it from the winter garage to my friend's garage I could not see any new traces of coolant leaking there, but I will test this properly once I was able to fully warm up the car and drive it for a bit. I think I can agree that the whole porous engine block stuff is kind of nonsense, but there is just a silly amount of true, false and half-true information on anything Skyline-related on the internet.
    • hrmmm , not mine , easter plans to pull engine not happening     
    • I removed the IACV, cleaned it and reinstalled.  I found a video on youtube that helped with the whole process, the guy then said the idle needed to be set, so the process was to get the vehicle up to operating temperature, unplug the TPS, set the idle screw in the IACV so the RPMs were around 600, then plug the TPS back in.  After I reinstalled the IACV, the car started (because, it was a cold start), once it warmed up, the car died, I adjusted the idle screw to see if that helped anything, it did not, I had to wait about 3-5 minutes, then the car would start back up. Only to shortly cut out, and only crank.  I loosened the TPS to see if adjusting that would do anything, and when I would rotate the sensor clockwise, there was a humming noise, but it would go away when I got the sensor in the horizontal position.  It only made the hum noise with the key on.  What do you guys think? 20250414_172604.mp4
    • Quick update.  The engine grounding strap was replaced, the engine is now happily running.  Tested the voltage drop before replacing the strap, was about 1.2ish volts down between engine to battery, chassis to battery. With the new grounding strap, pretty much no voltage drop at all.
