I have a 94 Celica GT and I want to install a remote start alarm. My car is a manual so I don't want it to jump forward if it is accidentally left in gear. I spoke to some people who installed alarms and the tell me that some manual cars have a neutral sensor that can be tapped into that is connected to the ECU. Seeing that my car is a 94 I don't think that we have anything like that in our cars. So I am I right or wrong? Thanks in advance.

Nobody is answering his question. He's not asking about the neutral start switch or how to bypass it or what stories you have about it. He's asking if there is a neutral position sensor built into the ecu somewhere that he can tap a fail-safe from, so if you try to start the vehicle and it doesn't see that its in neutral it will not remote start. To be honest I don't think our cars have any such thing but that's only because I've never come across it before so I'm not entirely sure.

According to the ecu diagrams I found, the clutch sensing wires cannot be found at the ecu. You'll need to use a relay to do a bypass AT the clutch. The car will see the clutch switch as engaged and allow the car to start. It is possible, I've done it. The newer alarms have some failsafe features built in for standards. They are a pain, but they'll keep your car from randomly launching.
