>> Software controlled start of RX-8

I finally got hold of a wiring diagram for my RX-8 (all 55 pages of it!) this morning, and it's been rather illuminating. It helped me figure out the ignition interlock system and RFID reader, so with a bit of jiggery-pokery, a modified wiring loom, and an Arduino I successfully started the car tonight totally under software control. Woot!
My ignition system now has a USB interface ;-)
