Ok so im not sure if its true or not but i heard that there is a locksmith that can cut the factory Nissan imort key (eg: for a R32 GTS-t) without having to buy a blank key from Japan.

Anyone know if its true or had it done and where abouts?

Cheers B

You can buy the blanks from your good old local Nissan dealer. Nothing speacial about the keys, same as most locally delivered stuff. I brought as blank off Von Bibra's up he for my R33, cost not much more than $20. Then got it cut off the code number at the local locksmith.

Well so far i have had 3 keys cut at 3 different locksmiths and none of them work. All will go into the ignition but none will turn the car on.

Looks like im one of the unlucky ones and will have to pay $50 for a NISMO blank key :)

I noticed with my silvia keys (they obviously have been cut) they only work one way around, as in you put it in the barrel and it slides in fine but won't turn, take it out rotate it and put it back in and its fine!

also you barrel could be slogged out and isn't accepting a fresh cut key (how was the condition of the old one?)

Yeah thats what i thought as well (more like hoping) but when Darren looked at the barrel he said it was fine, and that without the proper blank he wouldn't be able to match it up (or get it work).

So looks like if i loose my keys then im good and proper fooked :D

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
