lost car keys!

[SR240SX]

Well i lost my keys today at work and i dont have a spare set..i went to Brasso nissan but they told me that they cant pull up info on older models(my car is a 92) he said nissan wiped out all that information:confused: ..so now i cant get in or drive my car and i have no clue where to find keys..will a nissan dealership do it and the guy i talked to not know what hes talking about? or can i go to a locksmith for them to make me a new key?..any ideas would be great thanks!

If worst case comes they can rekey the entire car and make you new sets

probably 2 or 300 bucks

well im not looking to spend that much lol any cheaper ways?

Do you still have the owners manual?If you can find the correct key code then they can make your key, cuz my owners manual had the keycode

Not sure if this is true but i heard that some places can make a mold of the key hole and design a key from it.
dont take my word though but for some reason this rings a bell.

no i dont have hte owners manual..the seller didnt give it to me when i baught the car. i dont know if he just didnt have it or what and about the key mold thing..the guy at nissan said i would have to take like a doorhandle or something off and bring it to a locksmith for them to make a new key but i dont know if its true?

The Nissan dealership cant cut you a key without the key code, so your best bet is either trying to find out what ur key code is or doing that locksmith thing

Hmmm..I never knew they can't pull up info on older models. When I went to get another set of keys from Honda (1997)..all they needed was my VIN number and I got a new set within 10 minutes. Not too sure if it would be the same for Nissan.

When I lost the key to my skyline I phoned up a mobile locksmith (I can't remember the name right now..) but they came out and cut a key from the locks... cost me 50$ and I could drive again!!

Isn't the key code printed on the side of teh locking mechanism?
