Thread: Key options?

As I see a lot of my friends with Subarus are able to use the STi key blank for their cars. This got me thinking... would the key blank from a BNR34 Skyline work?


This key to exact... I believe it has the chip in it, I contacted a dealer in Japan about it and I'm still waiting to hear back.

Anyways my question is has anyone tried this or had a friend try this?

Just heard back from the dealer in Japan, there is no chip in this key... hmm... damn.

Idk about the gtr key kind of lame unless u found a badge u could swap that said SER but I know I have seen a key blank for our cars that was silver and said Nismo. dont ask me to find any refrence to it, it was quite a while ago and I am posting with my phone.

It's like ppl using spec v keys when driving a 1.8. No point really, they are the same. Lol

Gtr is a whole different car. You can get it cut to unlock doors and stuff though

Yeah it was just something I pondered while I was at work browsing the internet. The silver Nismo key you refer to has been discontinued and very hard to come by. The only way I could make this specific key work is cut it open and install one of the transponder chips from one of my spares, then it would work... but not worth it at $145 shipped for the key lol.

im gonna order a flip key =D

Nice, let us know how it goes to program it and what not. Always thought about it. I think one guy had one, never really confirmed. Lol

I would be interested in a flip key if someone got the part number and info on getting it programed

You are not the only one interested to see if there are other options for our cars key.

Damn. Does your family own the dealership or something?

LAMO if it was a guy...........

Wasn't even like that, I asked how much to get it programmed and he looked at the book and said $20

You don't need to have a key with a chip for it to work. my keys had a chip in them and i now use a flipout porche cayenne key for my car. I simply looked where the chip was in the key and on the ignition when i turned the key to start the car, then removed the chip and shaved down a part of the plastic ignition ring so that the chip fit in there flat and then painted the whole ring silver to match the interior. cheap antitheft, spin the ring, if its not lined up with the on position and someone has your keys the car wont start. as for programing the fob, i didnt go that far, i still use the original nissan fob with my porsche key
got the idea from a few VW freaks in 2004 sitting in class in autoshop one day

Pics!
You have 2 posts on the forum, I'm doubting you, but prove me wrong. I would like to see it before I destroy my only key. Lol

Some guy does this off Craigslist, he takes out the chip and places it into a switchblade. Apparently he has a "Shop"
