GT (Stick) and Rem. Start??

Japhar81 7 February 2005 00:57:36
 All,
Is there a remote start I can install on my GT (Manual Transmission?)

I was looking at the Viper 771XV or something similar, but I can't figure
out if they work with a stick..

Anyone have any experience with this? Is it a big pain to do? Is it even
possible?

yes but you will need a cut off switch just in case it is in gear when you
try to remote start it.
Starting in gear is not a good thing. and if you really want a extra bit of
protection you can set it up to where the remote start won't engage unless
the park brake is set.>

It is possible. With a stick you have to leave the car parked in neutral
and bypass or otherwise disable the clutch-starter interlock.

You know, thats kinda scary. Is the interlock mechanical or a sensor? I > presume sensor..

Cars nowadays have (usually) a simple switch on the clutch pedal, very
similar to a brake light switch. If the clutch isn't against the carpet,
the car won't start. Car makers were apparently afraid of litigation
from people who were stupid enough to try and start their stick-shift in
gear without the clutch floored.

For serious off-roaders, it's a common practice to disable the interlock
so that in an emergency they can use the starter to move their rig that
last ten feet.
