Car won't start. Immobiliser problem?

So last night I drove to my gym at about 10pm and everything was running perfectly. Haven't had any dramas like this before.

As I went to leave the gym and turn on my car, I found it wouldn't even remotely turn over. Now I have an immobiliser in my 03 V35. Have no idea if its stock or not. Basically when I turn my key so far it makes a constant clicking noise until I depress my immobiliser button and then all the dash lights and eveything works and then that allows me to start the car. However, last night it wouldn't even do that. I turn the key and nothing happens. No clicking noise or anything and I can't disable the immobiliser. 

I tried to do a little research and I've seen people with some similar issues but not the same. It's not the transponder in my key because I replaced that a few months ago as I lost it.. the central locking etc still works. 

Anyone have any idea what this could be? Is it the immobiliser or something else?

I had a similar issue with my m35. Ended up being a sticky relay inside the alarm/immobilizer. Once I found the box under the dash area near the ignition, I tapped the box a few times with a screwdriver and the relay unstuck and everything was back to normal. Worth trying.

Is your immobilizer aftermarket? If yes, then will be under dash somewhere. Depending how good the installer was, it shouldn't be too hard to find.

 

Put up a pic of your immobilizer button please.

 

 

Yeah, I'll be honest, I'm not entirely sure wether or not it's stock or an aftermarket unit.

Here's the key and immobiliser button.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      Just a standard sanding block size. With the rock chipa they are quite small. I sanded them as you could feel the edges.

      Say you've just laid all your filler and your about to start sanding, how large is the sanding block your using?  Like a high fill primer? Technically possible but would be a nightmare. Just guessing from the photo, but they look small enough that you might get away with using a 1k spot putty. Normally you'd use something like this on pinholes but with the type of project you're working on I'd give it a go.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road.

      That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 💪🏼 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...
