do you have the little tag with the number on it? you need that to re-order keys. it's a little alluminium tag that comes with the 2 keys. was your car new when you bought it in japan? it should have come with 2 keys and that little alloy tag. without that tag it's going to be a head fk getting a new key for it.

well if you have the tag with the number on it (nissan JP need it to encode the key correctly) then just buy one from nissan japan using the cars real chassis number. they shouldn't know whether or not the car left japan. and I would be taking all this up with whoever sold/exported the car for you. all 3 R35s I imported had 2 keys and the little tag/plaque for key re-order in case some got lost.

Am I correct in saying you need the r35 consult to code the key to the particular vehicle? ie All the keys are the same ex-factory and are individualised to the particular car via Consult. Nissan dealers won't help you but I do believe there is a Consult or two floating around Oz now in the hands of aftermarket....

not 100% sure, but the guys in japan told me you order the key, and then give the number that is on that plaque to nissan, that number is what they need to code it to your car. so you don't need the physical car to do it, just that code.

Beer Baron thank you for your help, do you have a nissan dealer in japan that can help.

From what i know the car need to have the consult equipment hooked up to the car to tell it to look for a new key.

Does anone in perth have a consult machine or will the cobb tuning port be able to do this?

34s are completely different. R35s have a siemens prox key. no physical key. most 34 GTRs you just get a key cut same as any other car. the only difference is some have the immobiliser chip in the key (look for a red bit on the shoulder of the key) which links up with a reader in the ignition barrel area. it's a basic proximity based immobiliser. in that case you need the new immobiliser chip too. some also had dealer option alarms, but the keys are just normal keys.

anyway back to R35s and the guy with the problem, seriously the best guy to talk to is the guy that sold you the car. either the aussie agent, or the japanese exporter, or even the japanese dealer if you bought it new. that is your best hope of sorting it out. and no an access port most likely wont be able to sync up a new key. it only does some basic stuff like error code resets etc. not the advanced things that consult does. and no I don't know anyone in perth with one.

just to reiterate, seriously, speak to the bloke that sold you/exported to you the car.

Beer Baron,

thank you very much.

You right, the key needs a consult port but also a key code that is supplied by nissan to unlock the 'looking for key function of the car)

also if a nissan dealer is found to have worked on an import they will lose their rights to sell and service the gtr.

so we are stuffed at this point.

ta

the small tag is an international lock smith code.....You can read those numbers/letter to a lock smith over the phone and he can cut it and roll up and un lock the car........i have a key cloner here id like to shove an R35 key in it and see what it says....ive managed to clone the R34 GTR siemens keys....next step from that is to have a sniff around inside the immobiliser box......im sure something can be done (as long as its not a rolling code) as we have managed to flash and rewrite the all the japanese brand motorcycle ecu's for lost keys

Try Steve Jones @ Fabcar in Vic Park ,he has a jdm r35(won targa west twice in it )he might be able to help you out

^^^Think you will find him at LF Performance now but I would try Ant @ XSpeed as I beleive he does all the tuning for the car(s).

damn i thought he and his family owned fabcar

i personally wouldnt go near xspeed after probs i had there a few years ago with my 32 r

i will not be speaking to steve, he has had 20 months to supply the second key

hanson has the same issue with his 35 skyline

I would not go near them either, i hear you.

My JDM came with 2 keys and just checked it had the little silver tag with the code number on it too. The people who you got the car off would of recieved 2 keys, if they don't have it, someone must of lost it or thrown it away. Try that first, the 2nd key for me had the tag on it's keyring.

Don't know anything about keys for these things though, if you need a consult three to plug it into (aftermarket in oz) and you can't find one let me know I know of a place in QLD that have one, that might be willing to help.

Message me if you need that contact. I check the boards once a week though lately.

tristan,

i spoke to brad about it last night... he said they are the same as the maxima keys, asked if he could do it and he said yes using consult 3 but he talked to someone about doing it last week and there is no way in hell they are allowed to do it!

thats coming from a nissan dealer that isn't even a GTR dealer

    • Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.
    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
