Remote Start

[CSNet]

Anyone know a place to get a remote start and get it installed? Any reccommendations for one?

Preferably someone who knows what they are doing so they can set it up so that the alarm/immobiliser doesn't turn the engine off when doors are opened etc.

Thanks.

I dont remember the exact name of the ppl that did mine but if you look in the Trading Post in the Auto section they're the ones that come out to you...Although its usually accompanied with an alarm setup....

They've got 3 different packages to choose from which give you different features....

hmm im suprised they advertise this cause they r illegal. My supra has a remote engine start and started on me and rolled back cause i accidentally had it in reverse

Oh, i didnt realise they were illegal!!!

It should have that safety mechnasim thingo if it isnt in Neutral or "Park" shouldnt it....

[TracidTrax]

ye they should, mine wont start in any gear other than reverse or ofcourse if its in neutral

What happens if the safety mechanism fails and it accidentally starts and runs over a kid? then u go to jail. Same things with turbo timers, they are illegal too even though pretty much everyone has them

Remote engine starts are a smart idea but ever since my car started in reverse while i wasnt in the car i havnt used it other than one in a blue moon to show some 1 how it works

they are only safe in autos really, so the car only starts in Park and there is no risk of it rolling away, as it wont work in any other gear.

I had it on my 4x4 surf as apart of a pageguard pg8000 alarm system.

It has safety feature where the turbo timer needs to be used when you get out of the car before it would remote start after you alarm it.
