I bought this blank factory key(w/o chip) from Nissan dealership while I was in Taiwan to see if it'd work on our Maximas. Got the key copied here and works perfectly. This key is made of the same material as US spec Nissan OE keys. It is compatible with any Nissan vehicle that uses the black oval-shaped handle OE key.

Since a few guys posted interest on the key in the General Forum. Here's the groupdeal:
Price is $17.50 SHIPPED to anywhere within US
Canada or US territories (HI, PR): $21.50 USD SHIPPED
No minimum order required
Groupdeal expires Feb. 21st, 2003 (I'll need 2 weeks to get the order from Taiwan)
Payment(PayPal, MO) must be received no later than Feb 21st
All orders will be filled between Feb. 26 and March 7

Attn: 3rd gen Maximas
I can't get a definite answer from the Taiwan dealerships whether the same key will work on your cars because 3rd gen Maximas are not sold over there. Dmontzmax has volunteered to take a chance to make a copy to test out on his car once the keys come in.

Any questions, post here or email me at ange@redlinemax.com

Thanks for reading,
Ange

 

nice key

FREE BUMP

Count me in for the 3rd gen, as I said, let me know when you are ready for the mulah!!!

 

Us 99ers already have that key!

 

but you guys have the PITA chip that costs $92582735#@$*^ from Dealer to get a spare and programmed.

 

Yup, I hope I never have to get that replaced, I would have to sell all my mods..... ....FREE BUMP!

 

yeah my key's like that as well...i don't really like it
i thought all 4th gen keys were teh same, i've never seen the other ones.
i thought the chip was a good thing...

 

how do u know if your key has a chip? i went to a hardware store and made a spare with the same looking key and it works perfect.

 

Then you don't have the chip. If you did have an immobilizer chip in the key. The new key wouldn't start the car.

 

ever key i've seen so far looks the same. what does a max key look like with the chip? maybe they didnt have it my year.

 

The picture of the key above is the one that 99's have. They have the chip, the one in the picture that is for sale does not have the chip. It is a nice key, I would buy it if I didnt have the chip in mine. SOMEONE BUY THIS KEY!

 

Click here for a pic of a key w/a chip. This is for the 20th AE 5th gen but all 5th gens are the same w/o the 20th AE center piece that is. They are all black and I am sure the 4th gens w/chips are the same. Notice the blue area on the bottom.

Hmmm...I might be in for two. I really don't like the ugly oval keys that my car has. It's funny that we upgrade our keys, but I guess every little detail is important!

Later,

I think I'll buy one.

 

I will also take one. Time to replace the ugly oval key..hehe.

 

Paypal sent.

Lemme know.

Got my package today!

I think the key will work Ange, they look identical, I will let you know what the locksmith says, but shouldnt be any problems.

I am going to put the NISMO badge under my pillow at night and leave it in the package.

 

so the question is, will 3rd gen keys work on 4th gen molds? YES, THEY WILL!!! I went to home depot to get copies made for my 93 and 97 Maximas...they both used the same blanks. They will work, guaranteed.
