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.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
