I went to Unley Nissan in adelaide and they were f**king useless. Had to tell the guy 3 times what kind of car my V36 was, he then eventually said "We won't even look at an import, but we'll do a 40k service for $700" i asked what that included and he simply replied "Filters mate"

I enquired about the V36 transmission firmware update and neither he, or his boss knew what "Firmware" meant.

Has anyone been able to get the transmission upgrade to stop the auto hesitating and down shifting hard?

So getting a new key done is simply having it ordered in, and having the ID and immob code copied?

I don't know who Andrew is :P But am very eager to find somewhere in Adelaide to have a key done (hopefully less than $400 lol) and hopefully the firmware update.

Andrew = #Nightcrawler

He's in the SAU SA club and drives a V35. He should know someone.

Hey guys, new to this forum, just purchased a 2006 nissan skyline pv36 350gt type sp and i only got one key from the seller, now i've been to nissan glen waverley (VIC) and also today i went to ferntree gully nissan (Vic) and both places states that they cannot do the coding on a spare key that i have. Ferntree gully advised me that the immobiliser code keeps changing when they enter and exit the program and thus they dont have the system to get the spare key coded and told me to go to infiniti or to an car import dealer if they can do it. Any suggestions as to what i should do now??

Is that basically the program they use? because as stated earlier in the post 3 years back lol, they were able to get the codes for the V36 by ChrisB, im not too sure, but i'll try contacting infiniti in melbourne if they noe anything at all about the car...

Yep you need consult 3 and a willing dealer.

no one else can help really as they cannot get the immobiliser code.

Dam maybe i should have thought about this b4 i bought the car lol, never knew it was so hard to program a key, i did try to contact nissan japan but of course no luck there, glen waverley nissan did give me a print out of consult III program sheet of the encrypted PIN but i guess thats the one that keeps changing...

Unsure. I have never needed to program a smart key. Normal keys were not a problem IF I had the immobiliser code . Nissan stopped handing those out a few years back.

Another recommendation for FTG Nissan. I believe I was the first spare to be made through them (2011 sometime), and they were great. It's cost me a bit more (exploratory work, etc) but it was under insurance thanks to Jetstar losing my bags!

Don't forget to get your mechanical key cut as well! You can't just go to any Bunnings / basic style key cut place, you need a locksmith who can cut both sides of the key. Should cost around $20. I had mine done in Elizabeth St, Melbourne, near the corner of Queensbury somewhere. I'm sure there are loads of places though.

If you fail to do this and lose your other remote then you will not be able to access your car at all in the event of an electrical failure / flat battery!

I've posted this before, but will throw this info back out there.

I went to Main North Nissan in SA, and they couldn't code my new key. They kept using the 350Z program.

Turns out the V36 needs the Nissan Micra key code program to work. I got lucky as a staff member was in the middle of importing a V36 and followed it up out of his own interest and got mine sorted.

$300, fob, code, cut.

      Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c

      I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......
