Its not a bad time to be thinking about kill switches. I dont know much about how the keyfob and security system works in these cars. But it seems somewhat clear that its been "cracked" to a degree. GTRs in the south have been getting stolen out of parking lots, 4 in the last month, seen driving away by witnesses. All that's left is a section of glass window that has been cut out. People are talking about either the "rolling code" is cracked now or they have figured out a way to do it by replacing the BCM and using their own key they bring with. Id say its a safe bet that the Z34 and R35 likely use the same security, so the Z might wind up pretty prone to being stolen just the same, particularly ones with expensive aftermarket work.

To add a well hidden fuel pump kill switch is a smart idea. It doesn't protect you from the vandalism that may ensue but it has a strong chance of at least keeping the car in place.
