18- Neutral safety input (black/white)- ground to green/black wire off of tranny (pin G on the ECU)
This makes it so that the remote start will not work unless the transmission is in Neutral, saving your car from hopping around your driveway/ parking lots into god knows what...

You would also have to park the car in neutral as well - which may not be good if you're on a hill. |
I've got a friend who shuns the idea of parking a car in neutral, and every time I bring up my remote start they give me crap for it...
My first rotary (and first car) had over 200K on the clock, so that got me into the habit of always using the emergency brake. When I first got the car I parked it on a slight incline in gear and came out later to find it kissing a fence. So I've always used the ebrake rather than putting the car into gear. With my new FC I don't think I've ever tried seeing how it held up being parked only in gear. I've just stuck with using only the ebrake.
