Hey guys i have a question about the transponder in the R34 GTR keys, my car has a aftermarket immobiliser installed and the original remote is not used, i only have 1 key and 1 remote for the car and i want to get a 2nd key/remote. What i want to know is the transponder in the key, is that still used when an aftermarket immobiliser is installed? and where can i get a 2nd remote for it. and am i better off just going and getting a new immobiliser/alarm put in that i have all the codes/info for and spares.

No idea sorry mate..

i will be a smart ass and say mine came with 2 keys... and 2 remotes!

edit: i cant remeber but it might be only series two 34rs with the chips in them? could be way off here though...

well i have the key sorted out, Justjap have the original key with transponder in it for $130 so now i just need to get nissan to code it, wish me luck...

My alarm cost me 300 bucks with immobilizer and alarm. And I fit it myself, got a "Nissan" key for 25 bucks and got that cut.

2 keys, 2 remotes, 3 points immobilizer which is enough for me through justcar. Could add a 4th too I think.

Hmm, well my key has a transponder in it apparently so, genuine R34 GTR key with transponder $130 and $180 for nissan at hornsby to code it for me, so quite expensive just to get a spare key. Can anyone confirm the transponder in the GTR keys? i rly have NFI about it.

Might get flamed for this, but unfortunately the thing with alarms/immoblisers is that "smart" thieves usually know how to bypass them quite easily. They do however, delay the thief from stealing the car...and they help with getting cheaper insurance. But thats about it.

I'm going to be getting 3 kill switches installed (in non-obvious locations). So if a thief bypasses the immobilisor, he wont know where the switches are and the car won't start.

Only thing you're left vulnerable to with kill switches is getting towed. Highly recommend them if you're worried about your car getting knocked off.

So guys, i am thinking the Ferry idea is out.................

We can still do old pac and Galston Gorge but we would need to turn around at some point and come back.

We could always aim to have Brekkie at Galston itself and then head on the return trip, there is 2 cafe's from what i can see, i am thinking that Rosies would be the go as there is a Franklins carpark accross the road and we probably wont fit in the carpark at Rosies so we could use the one at the shops, also looks like parking if you turn left at the roundabout but thats only a minor detail. Although the Ferry Rd was fun i am worried about the low cars and the GTR's

Having had a good look at those pics I still think it is doable with the timbers but if no one is keen than that's cool

Of course if we do go ahead than I should say we will take all the care in the world but if a car gets damaged not our problem

yeh im not worried about it getting stolen, im more worried about losing my keys and not being able to get into the car and i want an alarm for POM.

So looks like my local lock smith may be able to code the key for me for $130 just have to take the key around and see if they can clone it if they can ezy done on the new key from justjap, if that fails its Nissan at hornsby for $180.

The immobiliser looks like i have to have an aus standard one installed for justcar to be ok with it does not mention how many points it needs to be that i can see anywhere. so i think ill look at mongoose and Viper see what i can find for that.

You really shouldn't worry about anyone stealing your car

For a start it's only a S15 and secondly by the time you are done posting pics of it all over the Internet it will be so well know and famous that no self respecting thief (or any thief for that matter) would been seen dead in it let alone wanting to be know as the dumb f**k that stole your car in the first place.

Hell they would probably end up with pink eye from changing gears

Consider yourself flamed

If you work on the car its not likely to start anyway!

You get flamed for everything you type!

EDIT - Holy shit Martin NAILED IT!

The guys on the ferry seemed pretty keen to help out if needed.... I think we will set the route both ways and decide on the day judging by the cars that attend!

Mine does

Also goes off if you open the boot or bonnet without disarming as well

Yeh mine flash also and if i leave the car idle and dont turn it on or anything after about 30 seconds it locks everything out, the car wont start dash wont light up i have to hit the unlock button again and then it will come to life.

Tank just take all the oem shit out and get the same as me. 300 bucks and I could probably fit it if you trust me and buy me a case. Or pay a professional 200 bucks.

So much easier And cheaper

FYI -

R34 GTR wuith aftermarket immoboliser in most cases still runs NATS which means you need to get the transponder programmed before the key will start the car.

R34 GT-T with aftermarket immoboliser does not need programming and you can get a key cut and it will just turn and start.

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
