hello guys im the proud owner of and s14 kouki automatic ill post some pic later but right now im in a bit of a problem here . the ignition switch in the s14 is bad and the key thing is too i decided to go for a GTR push to start i already have on coming. im been searching like crazy today i need some help in doing the wiring and the schematic of the ignition switch i already got the ignition lock assembly off. i searched and all i could find was to do it with the push to start with keys in it but to late for that i have seen i a website that i would need 3 relays and another on and off switch i can get does i just need to know how to push everything together right. this is the only car i have and i would really appreciate if u guys could help .

Get a test light and check to see which wire is + at all times. Make that the main wire that powers all your toggle switches and push button. Then run the rest of the wires to the other parts of the toggle switches and the black/white wire to the push button. That way each section (acc, ign on, and start) will have its own toggle and button. Viola ..... No more keys.

You mean like the new cars? There is an entire computer that controls that. You would have to find an aftermarket company that made that and wire it in to the computer and the switch.

After seeing that video, it seems simple enough to wire with some relays. Just need to kniw what each pin does on the button and then go from there.

I think you will find some help at The12volt.com, check out the wiring for remote start alarms. I do know that on S13's (not sure about s14) there are two circuits that need energized to start the vehicle, one for cold start and one for hot start. Usually the second circuit gets overlooked by novice installers and it results in the car not starting when cold. You will also need to instal some sort of lockout device, RFID, or other to keep the car safe when unattended. Otherwise....smash window, press button, drive it like you stole it!
