Any one know how to add Intelligent Key?

I was wondering if it is even possible, I know how it works...(worked at a Nissan Dealership,) but am very much interested in installing it to a 2006 Altima SE-R ignition...

I purchased it thinking that it would work with the SE-R (after confirming with the seller that it would work). The Nissan Dealership said that it wouldnt work, so I returned it. So I went with the Viper Remote Start (771XVR) and it works great. Its really convenient, specially if you live in a cold place.

On another note, just some related info to the Intelligent key you may want to know about;

man that sux my plans were to use the intelligent key with just s simple remote start, sweet key that does it all. Owell its just annoying to have KEY + REMOTE its just messy when it comes to looking for remote or Key for the ignition, im not trying to make it a huge problem its just I work at a dealership and the intelligent keys are SOOOOO useful especially in this Cold weather/precipitation weather.

You can always experiment with being a techie and make your own jury-rigged RFID system:

wow dude you are so right...not bad but i thought of this and tell me if this might work it would be cheesy you could say...placing a chip in the small key like they do on factory nissan keys...

Definitely. Could be one of the coolest, yet understated mods too.
After I posted this I thought about putting it into my keyfobs - which I plan on reworking anyways so that they have built-in flashlights.
