I have a series 2 R33 GTS-t, it has OEM keyless entry. Key looks like this

I think it also has some kind of receiver behind the door card

Thanks! Big help! The key I got was a re-cut from one of those GTR keys you can buy on eBay. Do you know if the S1 got these?

I have keyless entry. although my key looks heaps different to Cassbo's

You have an S1? I just don't know when they started using them... Ugh! It'd be nice to walk up and not have to try to fiddle with keys to get in. You can tell that a key has been used for some time to get in cuz of all the scratches around the key hole.

I searched all over several forums and could not locate the correct method to program the key buttons my '98 GTS-T, so after a few days of trying every combination of steps located on 240sx, 300zx, and infiniti forums I came up with this: make sure all doors are closed, get in and lock the doors manually, insert and remove the key from the ignition 6 times within 10 seconds, the doors should then unlock to indicate it is in program mode, turn key to acc. position (do not start!) and manually relock the doors, press the lock button on the key once, the doors should then unlock again to indicate acceptance of key code. remove key, then get out and close the door and test the lock/unlock buttons. if the above steps were followed in order, all should work correctly!

Above quoted from GTR.co.uk. Does anyone know if the S1 got a keyless option? Searching keeps bringing up S2 and it was a common factory option.

its a DEALER fitted item. they didn't come with keyless until S3. it will be FAR easier to add an aftermarket unit to the existing actuator that is there and remove that mess in the door.

as for coding it - dont bother.

What I figured. Seems a lot of those remotes forgot to get on the boat with these cars. Aftermarket alarm it is..

    • Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i. 
    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
