mmmm, maybe , maybe not. There are Key Codes for the transponders that are programed in the Body Control Module that control the security of the car door locks.

You may be able to get it reprogrammed but you need to know the Key code of the transponder, these are usually stamped on an aluminium tab that would be hanging on your key ring.

I think that Nissan can look them up if you supply your VIN... Well Nissan Japan can.

Aha, after a quick google search (after a read of the dongle thing) it's some autowatch thingo. Will shoot them an email.

Got a pic of the black things Michael?

I have a "black dongle things" with my keys. They are the proximity sensor for the immobiliser that Northshore Prestige installed.

Might be the same as on your car?

I can get one, but I'm at work so can't just yet.

But, it's one of these I think:

I assume that's to satisfy aussies requirement for an immobiliser? Personally, I want to get rid of using keys completely and just have my car start via a proximity sensor but that's a project for another day.

Yes, Michael, it is to satisfy the immobiliser requirement.

They do seem to work quite well (if you happen to drop one, make sure the receiver is still in the plastic case before trying to get back in your car...)

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
