Any R33 Owners Get Their Keys Cut?

Hey got my car and wanted to make some copies of the key, went to key king and the like around tuggeranong and got some cut, none of them worked. the blokes said i need a locksmith. just wondering if anyone had theirs cut and had no problems, if so where (southside). Cheers.

I got one of the GTR blanks from JustJap and got it cut in hume for at the locksmith place and it didnt work. I looked at the keys and noticed that the copy wasnt ground down towards the handle part as much as the original there for the key wasnt going into the lock far enough. I gave it a quick once over on the bench grinder and it fixed the prob.

You should be able to take the key back and tell em that its wrong and they should do it again free.

Good luck

given it back 3 times now. Will tell them to start again and make sure they grind it deeper. Cheers. really annoying as its such a simple thing.

Get some sandpaper and rub the sharp edge off the key (Or the bench grinder if your brave) when I got my last key cut i had to give it a hit then it worked fine.

Let me know if you need the key tidied up or new one cut-have a key cutter at work

Thanks heaps for the offer. I got the keys back for the 3rd time, still didn't work so i took advice of smoothing the edges abit, just used the remel grinder thing and yea worked. i had a few keys so just incase it didn't it wouldn't have mattered but yea it worked. starts the engine and all ;-) first ones only locked the car ;-) Thanks for the help guys. Cheers
