G'day from Aus - help needed r.e. no key evo 8

Hi all,

I'm looking to buy an insurer sale JDM Evo 8 GSR. However it has no key, and I'm not sure how complicated that'd get for me as the owner if I purchased it (immobiliser issues).

From my understanding there can be issues with a new key getting cut and synced as the car is JDM - so you need a key from Mitsubishi Japan? Other people have said you can disable the immobilizer via ecuflash.

Apologies if this is the wrong place to post

Possibly cheaper to disable? You have tactrix cable?
