push button start (progress thread)

TBH.... you should do a kit like this. Not this one in specific, but similar technology.

So all you need is the keyfob within a close proximity and just press the button. No putting the key in the column.

Depends how long he's idling.. Ten second worth is generally what is considered enough to restart the car.

the lights here in town take about 5 mins to go from red to green durring "rush hour"

So how long are you sitting at lights? I don't see the benefit of saving gas? If you are driving 100 miles a day, is this all city driving? I am guessing your starter already hates you.....

Not trying to rain on your parade.... but I just can't grasp this... albeit a cool idea.... but not for gas savings.... carry-on....

^^^ usually 5 mins a light at the most as i work right in the middle of downtown

I think it's pretty neat, whether you save gas or not...Haven't seen it done before:th_thumb-up:

i know of one other gp and that was back in 04 so it's almost certain that member isn't on clubgp anymore

I like it! I wanna see a write up lol Geter doneeee

Cool idea but I agree with Negative113, wire in remote start with a fob so you don't need a key at all.

It's your car make it yours:th_laugh-lol2: I only drive mine to car shows now so made it rice to be different :th_laugh-lol3: Got one switch labeled GO FAST it turns on the water Injection and puts the transmission in pref mode and turns off the traction control. :th_peaceout:

so i have to move the hud switch so tried to do it w/o soldering by doing it w/ just electrical tape, so that ****ed up and now i had to start over
it pissed me off so much i will be driving teh bronco the next few days
