So, how does this switch actually work? You put the key in, turn to the run position and then (instead of turning the key to start) you push the button? What's the point of that? How about a button and NO KEY? You just spent $100 to push a button instead of turning the key all the way. If you still have to put a key in and turn it, what's the point?
Bc it’s cool, plenty of cars have the same thing, look at the Bugatti veyron, $1.5 million car, previous world record holder and it has a key and push to start
You’d be surprised how many cars have some variation of this. I agree it’s redundant, but this was something BMW was trying to convince us was cool up until like 2014
So you need to insert your key, turn it to ignition but then push the button instead of turning the key further? Do you need anything else for it or will it fit in a stock mx5/miata. Got a 97 montegoblue na but not very clean. Love your level of perfection!
idk why but i like mods like this.. like OEM + kinda mods that just seem nice and clean.... neeed more stuff like this LOVE THE CONTENT some short and sweet stuff
It’d be cool to have this with some kind of remote that detects something on your key like a modern push-button. Definitely not period correct but be nice to have as a redundancy if you felt like leaving the key in your pocket
I know you have the kill switch, but for those of us that don't is it also push button to turn the engine off or would it be the key turned to the off position to stop the engine?
Man, I don't know why you don't have more views and subscribers. You have super clean videos, clean car, great audio and video. I hope it takes off soon. For you. I really hope you make an nb some day I know you're making another na but the nb2 id love to see what you do with it.
I have the original ZOOM push start button on mine, I really like the look of the updated version. The original is just a simple black button and a brushed aluminum cover plate. Don't get me wrong, the OG version is dope but the new one looks super period correct and actually says "Engine Start". I just went to Rev9 and looked it up and go figure, sold out and back ordered until mid March... Dope Yatta, brotha.
I got both the Zoom and the S2000. I placed the S2000 in my cigarette lighter on the right side and hooked the S2000 just to the ignition, so it'll look on, as i use it as a decoy on the right side, to fool thieves. My Zoom is the real starter, on the left side, and i sprayed it with a laquer black to hide the color button. When i get people in my car, lol, im pushing 2 buttons at the same time to start, but they only see my pushing the dummy s2000. I also have a remote battery cut off, but its defective asbit works half the time, and i need to order another. Stealing my car won't be easy.
For some reason my starter spins without the key in the ignition. Would this clear that issue up or what would be the culprit of that starter spinning with no key?
His garage walls, ceiling not being insulated and dry walled is driving 🤪. He needs a heat pump in his garage. Yes love the cars. But I would rather be putting miles on them. Keep up the excellent work✌️.
With all of the miatas getting stolen in San Jose they should make one an alarm. So if someone where to brake in they would go to push it and an alarm would go off.
Would be cool if it was a keyless push-to-start... I feel like this is kind of disappointing... I need to put the key in, turn it 2 clicks, and THEN press the button? Why not just turn the key all the way...
@@OMGBUILDS have you thought any about doing some kind of keyless entry/start thing like a new car? That way you don't have to put your key in. You can just sit and push the button with the key in your pocket
What’s the point of having a push button start for a car when you still have to put in the OEM key and turn it? Aside from looking good, this just looks like extra work to start a car.
I'd guess number 1 would be style. number 2 would be at least a benefit would be I know that miatas are terrible about the keys getting weak right in the middle and breaking. So less stress of turning it everyday but mostly number 1
@@tsingson9618 Yes my S2K like this and worse (but probably similar to this one) : you have to use key to kill the ignition not the start button. S2K was the first car to have this feature and it was just for starting not stopping. All S2k people learn this by accident hearing the starter screech when trying to kill it. Doh!
@@OMGBUILDS I'd assume Keyless would be harder for most thieves than a standard keyswitch. And if I've got multiple killswitches and GPS I wouldn't be too concerned.
@@OMGBUILDS Stock column lock is easy to break anyway. Never considered it a key deterrent of theft. I'd say a removable steering wheel is a better deterrent.

@@jasperduncan5846 buy a new car or build your own entire ignition system
Safety reasons

So tempting to try to do 😂 Great video as always dude 👍
Thanks man!
I just wired the cig lighter to be a momentary switch... no one will ever guess and pull it out for anti theft...

Definitely need this, this season! Solid video!
Thanks!
I swear bro I love this car
Next episode, I think you need a "what-not" counter in the lower right hand corner lol.
🙂
Thanks for doing this video! I'm glad I saw this before installing my push start button✌️
Sweet!

This aged well
Do you need to insert key to use engine start button ?
this is amazing! is there a kit for a mk2? so simple!

Thanks man! Share away!
Awousem video man car is so clean and done right can’t wait to get my civic as clean as your Miata

Can you have the push start without the key with this kit?
What did you wire the killswitch to? Also you could just wire a killswitch to the black wire coming off the push start, correct?
I would kill for my harness to look this nice lol
🤗
That's Badass
thanks!
Dayumm so cool. I hope they have some for NA6 and I’ll order one
They do - read the description
I want my 1991 Mercedes-Benz 190e looking clean like yours 😍😍
Time and determination!
How about getting a 323f Lantis for your next project????Keep up the good work...
I like this miata i would a miata like this for my 19-20 birthday its so sick
Thanks!
Bro but the project of the 1990 White miata?
For some reason my starter spins without the key in the ignition. Would this clear that issue up or what would be the culprit of that starter spinning with no key?
Any video for the kill switch?
Is it possible to wire it up in such a way you can have a remote start with a lock out in case it’s in gear?
I noticed you have the OEM tape player! I do too! We are probably the only two in the world 😂
I have the oem tape player as well!
Nice
Hmmm interesting that its different for NA8 vs NA6. The connector is the same on both. In fact I have an NA6 pigtail wired into my NA8.
gotta be something with wiring - the shape looks the same
can you publish more on the kill switch? that looks like just what i need.
Cartek Battery Isolator
Can you show us the kill switch set up please?
search Cartek battery isolator - pretty cool cut-off
Would this work on a NB too, bc this is hella sick and i'd love to install it on mine
He has a link for the NB version in the description

Is a clean NA a good enough car for college?
Good enough for high school
Do you ever drive the miata? Would like some videos on it!
Not yet since it's still under construction
@@OMGBUILDS oh I see! Do you have a specific goal where you feel like it's finished or do you come up with new mods as time goes?
What exhaust are you running?
With all of the miatas getting stolen in San Jose they should make one an alarm. So if someone where to brake in they would go to push it and an alarm would go off.
You still need keys to use the push start.
@@OMGBUILDS oh gotcha. It has to be in the key hole?
Whats the point of this? This would only make sense on a dedicated track car or with a real keyless entry and start system
Do you they make a version for the NB or does this one work?
NB link is on the description
Where did you get those gauges?
Do you have to have the clutch in or just they key in the ignition
Whatever your car is setup to do

Can you still turn the key to turn it on?
Yup!
Didnt know this thing existed
now you do!
What happened to the mirrors?
Don't need mirrors if you're following the pack and there is no one behind you.
So do you need the key in to start the car
Same like every OEM can with push start
@@OMGBUILDS have you thought any about doing some kind of keyless entry/start thing like a new car? That way you don't have to put your key in. You can just sit and push the button with the key in your pocket

youre gonna have to show us how you did that kill switch bro.

Can you talk more about grounding. Thats the one thing im stuck on when doing this project.
Actually i found out the problem. After you ground and set it up, you still have to press the clutch to start the car.
It’s pretty cool but for $135 I think that’s insanely overpriced for not even $15 of material
First!
Really 😐
What’s the point of having a push button start for a car when you still have to put in the OEM key and turn it? Aside from looking good, this just looks like extra work to start a car.
I was just going to point this out. So he has to turn the ignition, and then push the start button? Maybe that’s going to be a future mod .
I'd guess number 1 would be style. number 2 would be at least a benefit would be I know that miatas are terrible about the keys getting weak right in the middle and breaking. So less stress of turning it everyday but mostly number 1
The S2000 is the same way also. You just put the key in the On position, then push the button.

You don’t need the clutch to start it?!?! That’s crazy
Bypassed
But you used a key.....
Not much of a point if you've got to put the key in still. Id have to add a keyless setup for it to worth it.
Keyless isn't that hard - it also isn't that hard for thieves.
@@OMGBUILDS I'd assume Keyless would be harder for most thieves than a standard keyswitch. And if I've got multiple killswitches and GPS I wouldn't be too concerned.
@@TheGamersRace keyless in a miata means no column lock - easier to jack.

I have a 1995 mx5 🥲
does installing this disable the "start" position on the ignition?
