The viper alarm / remote start i had installed on my 93 Manual Supra had 2 modes. One for Auto Trans that required no shut down procedure to allow a remote start, and a Manual Trans mode that made you do 7 or 8 steps when turning off the car to allow for a remote start.
You can put the alarm into Auto Mode even on a Manual Transmission, but this is HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY unadvised. If you accidentally leave it in gear after a long day, or someone else (mechanic, friend, bodyshop) leaves it in gear and doesn't set the emergency break, you could accidentally remote start the car and send it threw a storefront window.
thus, i am looking into buying a Z....
there may be other options available, but i just want to make sure no one makes the same mistake.
