remote start for Z
 

Its been cold lately and I have been driving my Z around since my Wife is using the Jeep. We are babied in the Jeep with remote start and the heater and heated seats turning on.

I was wondering if anyone has installed a remote start to the Z. I would like that feature in the next gen and a good reliable third party kit for my current Z.

i haven't but i know they can be done very easy.

Just don't leave it in gear when you park...

they make starters for stick cars too...

Ah, didn't know that, but still, would worry me a bit. :icon17:

LOL I was thinking that too, I will be calling some places here to see how much to install.

My friend had a wrx 2003 back then with remote start.

It was in gear, and the car rammed me a little. good thing i didnt get hurt.

Shouldn't be a problem. For automatics, there's the Park/Neutral Position switch. I assume there is something similar for neutral in manuals.

They do, but have you heard about the failures? Lol

They have to wire up a clutch pressed in/bypass mode too, that's what gets you... Because the clutch won't actually be pressed in, so you'll start your car, and hey presto, your car is through the wall of your garage

I could see it now wife turns on car I lft it in gear and bam car is now in the back yard. :roflpuke2:

I had one installed on my manual car...but decided to uninstall it. it was nice but everytime I get my car serviced somewhere...I get nervous. Now I'm worried free. And I got a DD for winter..I don't really need the starter.

Southark is correct on this. It also monitors the e-brake.

I've seen it happen

I actually saw it in this scenario, it was at a shop getting worked on, remote start got engaged... And hey presto, the car was now in the fron of the store, as well as the wall... LOL

i had one installed in my 350 and never had any problems just gotta engage ebrake and put in neutral or it wont start obviously
