Start asking some questions, i'm sure everyone in here would be more than willing to help out and drop a little knowledge on ya.

 

^ yea just make a list of questions and we'll all help out!

 

or make a new thread... "newbie questions here" with your list and we'll all chip in!

 

ok i'm just gonna do it here since everyone seems to be helpful!

first, i don't quite fully grasp the push star button, how is your car being prevented from theft if they just break the window?

secondly, the top only goes up and down while parked, correct?

thirdly, if any of you guys have mods, could they be easily done by yourself or would you recommend a shop?

4th, i know this is really newbish but what exactly is a test pipe and how does it affect the car?

 

you have to put the key in the car, turn it, and THEN push the button, motor turns over. wala!

 

top goes up and down by a button in the center console when the emergency brake is engaged... unless you've done the mod where you can put it up/down without engaging it.

 

the button seems kind of redundant then lol, i've read that the more high tech and expensive cars detect the key in your pocket and this is what allows the car to start up once the button is pushed.

 

The S needs to be not moving and have the ebrake set in order to put the top down. Both of these can be bypassed with a little electrical work although I wouldn't recommend lowering your top at highway speeds.

 

yeaaaaa, but a push start is COOL!

 

thanks guys, any replies to the test pipe question?

also, in my experience putting an aftermarket intake in a car sets the check engine light off, is this the same for the S? if so how is it bypassed??
