Is it possible?

Default Is it possible?

I'm just curious, but is it even possible to get a remote start for a S? Or even a manual car at that. Since you have to push the clutch in to start it. Just curious but I'm highly doubting it.

Yes it is. Its not exactly legal in some states because if u leave it in gear and remote start it, might run and crash. Seen it happen at the acura dealer I worked at , thankfully nobody got hurt. But I do know that some of the newer systems come with a sensor that will not let it start if it is in gear for safety reasons.

I defentaly understand lol. A lot of forgetful people out there. I wouldn't even know where to look around to getting one. And not really interested if its godly expensive lol. But it would be nice at times haha. Appreciate your input.

Here's a clever workaround from Modifry that addresses the safety issue.

All the newer systems come with safety features for manual cars. I'd go with Compustar if you are looking for a good alarm. I do have remote start on mine. Cant really say how much more it was with the remote start because I added a few other options as well. Unsure about the other systems but compustar does offer an app so you can start the car from your phone or computer and tracking. Id avoid any bypasses to try to get the remote start to work with the car unless its meant to and comes with safety features from the factory. Mine has to be turned off a certain way and left in natural with the ebrake up in order to start, other wise it wont engage.
