A pushbutton start.

 

that's not ricer

A ricer wouldn't know how to wire that up, or it wouldn't be that clean of an install

good job, i was thinking of doing something like that, except use a toggle switch for the starter instead.

 

lol u got me

i think thats blends in rather well great job

ur lucky i was gonna boot u outa the darkside

 

i have installed my 3rd set of ign cores/door key cells, im at the point where im thinking about a push button start too lol.

isaac

 

It only cost me $10 to do it.

so how do you wire it up

use it between the starter + wire and the ignition key

 

grrr, I have to pull it back off again, but its nothing more than two wires, and even if you get them swapped on the button they still work. They're reversable.

 

cool a pic would be nice

 

Looks good, I was expecting a big read S2000 push button in one of the vents or something. Or even better, toggle switches next to your radio for fuel, spark, and start, and you would have to flip them in order, like in fighter jet movies.

 

Nooo, not in my "cockpit", but I'm thinking of installing one of these plus toggle switches in my engine bay so I can crank it over while I'm outside playing with stuff inside.

Toggle for battery, fuel pump, and then start button.

Because the reason why this button was so cheap is because its a weatherproof one for an engine bay, not a flashy ricer one.

 

get some servos, make it towhere when you hit the buttonfrom the key remote, it turns to the right, and it creates a connection.


its cool, and simple.

it takes a bit of work, for the antenna and stuff. its worth it in the end.

 

you should make some sort of write up on push button starts, I might be interested on doing this after the five other projects I'm working on get finished.

 

im a total noob when it comes to wiring, i would love to see a write up of this.

 

Ricer, get out of here with this nonsense!

Just playing. It does look really good, and it would be really conveniant.

 

using the key just wasnt good enough for you, huh?

 

yeah write up, that looks pretty cool.
i have seen ppl do the whole big red button thing and to be honest it looks pretty crap, this still work in with the interior nie work

 

could try just using stock switchs from another 7 for battry,fuelpump

 

NOW THAT IS AN IDEA! You have 4 switches only 3 of them are needed, and they have to be turned on in teh correct order.... anti theft sytem and it looks pimpin cool lol.

 

Basically all I did is find the two wires. One's always on and the other sends the signal to the starter.

To find them use a multimeter to find one 12v wire and the one that's a 6v wire when cranking. Which is the switched ignition source and the S wire. I think, at least that's what I told my buddy and he was the one randomly looking for wires. He's an electrician apprentice friend of mine and he called me up wanting to go to Denny's and we did this in the dark afterwards.

I have to pull everything off again to see which is which. I was doing it in darkness with a friend of mine and while I was dremeling the plastic piece and fitting it he was setting up the wires.

Took less than five minutes with the two of us working

 

And if you flip them out of order the hole car just explodes, awesome.

 

So, Whats the point? I never understood installing a push button start on a street car. I have never had trouble putting a key in and turning. But props for a clean install, and something that functions.

 

Because I had an empty hole in there and now it looks somewhat stock. I need to paint the silver trim black.

That was my point, if it has a little extra useage then why not? Let's say I'm in the middle of driving and stall I can just quickly push the button and I'm good to go. That's why they originally placed them to the left of the steering wheel on the Porsche LeMans Cars.

 

So you either removed the choke, or it wasnt there when you bought it. Nice, although good luck starting it in the winter... unless you have 2GCDFIS, which pretty much eliminates cold start problems. At least it did for me, I removed the choke cable from the throttle linkage. But I wanted to keep the original look on the interior, so I left the Choke **** there. But you dont even really notice your little push start, I kinda like it...

 

I removed the choke, my sterling carb doesn't have one on there. 2GCDFISwill be installed very shortly. I'm using Cendi's writeup for it since I'm a cheap bastard and I have three 2nd gen coils sitting here unused.

 

Nice job Alex, neat install. Now get that 2GCDFIS installed man.....lol

Did my FMOC this week, damn it was hot working on that car. Fixed that damn oil leak.
