Hey all. Just wondering if anyone has purchased a spare key for their R34 ?

I want a spare one so I went to Mister Minute and they don't stock a suitable key ( even just the blade without the central locking buttons ). I've been to almost every key place I can think of and no joy so I went to Nissan and guess how much they quoted me for a "KEY".............

$422.35 :yes::(

OK, so it has the central locking BS in it but it doesn't even have an immobiliser built in and yet they want $422.35 for a fcuking uncut key ?!?! For that kind of money the key should be able to perform oral sex on me ( and damn well too )

And yes, R34 keys are different to R33's, R32's etc etc.

So, are there any realistic options available that you guys know of ?

I got a spare key cut at a keysmith at Chatswood Westfield basement near to the coles or woolies. Just tell them that there's no special chip or anything. Cost me 5-8 bucks if i rem correctly.

edit- for $422.35 they better take it in all 3 places and bring their hot twin sister along..

not sure if it's different from store to store cuz I onlt went to 1 store. On the key it says 'Edmond's" I think it's a generic key thing?

here's a picture of it, don't look good, but would look like Keira Knightly to me if I ever loose my original key.

cheers

I hear what your saying about the price of the key. I was quoted between $550 to $400 for the key unit. One option is to order the key blank blade from Alibaba.com. Ask nissan for the electrical circuit board inside the key for the central locking (cost $130). Encode it (instruction on another thread).

It's a cheaper option and it works.

only time you need a geniuine key in an R34 is if you have a GTR. the rest fo tehm work on a copy. if you want the remote entry key I can get them cheaper but they are still expensive.

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
