Can I Do It?

Hey 7th Cers,
I have a ES (2001 Sedan) and I've been gradually fixing it up.
I just put in angel eyes and nice fogs,
I bought an Asian Wolf digital keypad (http://www.asianwolf.com/car-alarm-smartkpl.html) thinking I could use it to start the ignition and use my push button I bought (http://www.ebay.com/itm/ENGINE-START...64db14&vxp=mtr) to start the engine.
Just called in and they said I can't do that and the Keypad is just to unlock the ignition.
That's fine but the whole point is I don't want to have to use my key anymore.

SO to solve this problem I want two switches:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/200822930771...84.m1423.l2649 one red and one blue.
The red one would be to start the ignition, then I'd push the start button to start the engine.
The blue one would be able to turn the whole car off, ignition and all.

So is this possible? Can a switch activate ignition?
I know it's convuluted but that's how I want it to be.

Re: Can I Do It?

Also if I can hotwire it so the keypad DOES start ignition that'd be fine too,
Would prefer that so I don't have to spend more money.

Re: Can I Do It?

Your going to need an immobilizer bypass module since your ignition key is encrypted. Yes it's possible, but why are you doing this? The bypass module is going to need to activate before you attempt to start the vehicle. It could be wired into the keypad and push bottom ignition.

You won't be able to turn then. The steering column will be locked.

I'd still need to have a way to turn the car off without the key.
Reason for doing this is because it looks cool.
Isn't that the only reason to do anything?

Get an immobilizer from k-tuned. They run $175-$199 retail and $130ish used. Check on k20a.org

If you want to shell out the 1k for a system then I'll gladly get it installed,
Think I'll worry about my college expenses and do it myself.

If I get an immobilizer will I be able to hook up the keypad?
Immobilizer is to make the car ignore the lack of a transponder but would I be able to use the code from my keypad to unlock the ignition?
Also if I have a start button can I hook up two relays, one off and one one, instead of having two switches?

The way the keypad is supposed to work is that you enter the code and then ti unlocks the ignition so you can turn your key and start your car.
Will I be able to instead hook it to the ignition so it stimulates the ON position for ignition instead, as if the key was in the right position.

Also can you recommend any push button starts that come with two relays that I can set up so I can have a push for engine on and another to shut down the car?

Re: Can I Do It?

Think I'm gonna go with a real push button start system like this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tchlink:top:en

Question though, will I still need the key in the ignition?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/PKE-Vehicle-...item2c657b53bf makes it so I don't have to but charges me an extra 100ish dollars so if I can just use my remote opener, type in the code to unlock ignition and then hit the button to start the car I wouldn't mind that either.

Reason for undertaking is there's a black with pink racing stripes camaro in my school who's suped up on mommy-and-daddy money. Speakers, base that shakes two cars beside her, push button start, etc.
My bass system beats hers.
Now I need the cool keypad + Push button start.
