All Z32's came with a titanium ignition key out of the factory. The black key was a secondary key, the red key was marketed as a valet key I believe. Also available is the NISMO key pictured. What keys do you have for your 300zx?

Yep. Very unusual to find a Z32 that comes with it anymore though. People tend to keep them. They used to be available from Nissan uncut for $300.00 but they haven't offered them since the late 90's. Now they are impossible to find. And IMO $300+ bones for a key blank is insane.

I'm surprised so many people have the titanium keys. Take good care of them

Does anybody else have the NISMO key?

The titanium "300zx" (2nd one) is by far the most rare! I would like the nismo one, but not in replacement of my original!

I understand you're a moderator and all, but do you have to stalk my posts and take them almost all in the wrong context?

Not stalking posts by any means. I check out every post in the Z forum, not just yours.

No need to feel like I'm picking on you

And on a unrelated note it seems I am too. I'm just an infrequent browser and have past by your sn in most of the post I've read today.
