Evening all,
Wanting one of these http://img367.imageshack.us/img367/4107/stikeyfy0.jpg

My question is why do all the adverts say these keys are not compatible with turbo models, there's several on ebay that say this.

A friend of mine had one for his newage sti jdm

Are they saying my newage sti has a chip in the key or something?

Thanks in advance.

 

The JDM's don't have an alarm or immobiliser as standard so no need for the key to be coded. I have one for my Spec C, just needed it cut.

 

So all UK specs are coded? In which case its more hastle than its worth.

 

The key sizes are different, hence they dont fit.

Where do you pick them up ?? Just had a quick look on gaybay and turned nothing up

 

got one of these with my sti wagon 10 years ago

 

Got one for my 96 prodrive classic and my 96 TTB forester

 

I got mine from here
Here you go, Bargain!!!

I think we all got them from there, should have asked for a groupbuy

 

Your not wrong Banny , Still cant argue at that price though, Rather than £50 through Japanparts

 

Would the key in that link fit my lock set?

If its a classic it will need some modding, which prodriverules can help with if you ask nicely

 

I take it Ryan has a few of these keys then and does the modding to them before selling on.....


How much Ryan and no need to give me the PayPal details, I know them well enough by now

 

Can anyone clarify, do all UK spec imprezas use the chip system?

 

Ryan doesn't supply the key, the ebay link is further up.

All UK cars should have an immobiliser transponder in the key.

Quite like my Tit'anium key.

 

Ah I will give up on that idea then, I'm sure I could bypass the chip but its not something I would want to be without.

Cheers all.

 

Got that one on my jdm as well...

 

My key isn't the transponder type though so surely the key in the link would work once cut?

 

Yes it will

 

Take the chip out the key.

 

So it'll work ok on my car ??

 

defo will boyd

 

Cheers Gaz

 

What Banny said.

My spare key, is the same as your key.

 

Cheers Banny. Top lad as usual

 

Get one bought, Boyd.

Your better half has some new bling, you need some too.

 

Without any modding?

 

Lol good point mate. Think I deserve it after what that ring cost!!

 

No, it needs some trimming to fit.

 

Hope you got the nosh.
