hey everyone. im just curious, is it possible to get the R34GTR key with the immobiliser chip and button on the key to work in an R32GTR? if its possible, would the ignition barrel and the door lock barrels need to be changed? ie: different key shape?

ideas? thoughts?

Cheers, Ron :D

the keyless part - yep. you will need the module,actuator for the drivers door and the lock cylinder. barrells are different so its not a direct swap.

as for the transponder - no. its integrated back through the ECU.

easier way would be to copy your key then trim it to fit into the 34 head.

one question-why?

why? meh. something different. my 32gtr key is about to snap and standard cut keys from the shop look crap. i can get 32gtr keys for the same price as 34gtr keys and i reckon they 34s look better.

id be happy if the key button could be programed into an aftermarket alarm. keyless entry and alarm immobiliser on off button build onto the key would be better then this crappy alarm button i have now.

ok. I see why now. if thats the case you would need the key/control unit paired up. that would have to be done IN THE CAR. from there you can use an upgrade alarm and trigger that off the OE key. you need the matching unit though before ANY of this can happen.

The R34 had a different key to the R32. You would need to change ignition barrel, door locks and boot lock for it to physically fit.

i thought this might be true. i was guessing they could have beenthe same as the key shapes kinda look the same but ive only seen them on the comp. i was thinking of removing the barrels from the doors and boot so u need to button to get in but then what if it fails....

this could be tricky to pull off if i did it. i guess ill just stick with the stock key shape...

thanks guys

      Should I use rust converter on this?

      The easiest option might be to just spray a bunch of fish oil in there.  At least that way you can feel like you've done something while you continue to ignore it

      I'm firmly on the "zero compliance is good compliance" for FUCAs. I'd be looking to solid metal joints even if the primary reason for having them is because they facilitate the twist in the arm. I have never been more happy with the way the front suspension behaves than I have since I got rid of the FUCA bushes. Even the thin little (short lived) poly bushes in the Whiteline adjustables have too much compliance for my liking. It probably won't be long before I have sphericals nearly everywhere, probably including both top and bottom arms in the rear, and I'll start complaining about the increased costs for dental work. But I will be enjoying the driving more, I'm sure.

      I have offset Nismo brackets so the fact the gktechs can pivot is less important to me. I have 170mm JIC arms with bushings - but they provide no adjustment and I'm not sure whiteline eccentric bushings will fit them (I don't want to ruin the bushings currently in them to find out). Ideally I want something with bushings + adjustment; hence why I'd like to find a pair of these. Unfortunately they aren't easy to find.

      @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal!
