i have the remote start when my car was an auto and it still works now that its a 5-speed. the aftermarket alarm is also hooked up with my factory alarm. both work together. i have a prestige alarm since '01 and the remote start is from viper. both aftermarket systems work off 1 remote not multiple remotes. the factory is still functional where i can roll down my 2 front windows, open sunroof, and unlock my trunk but using the keypad which is what you don't want to do since you want it to work with the remote. of course like everyone else said on here you need modules for each window so that you can have that function. i've had this system for a long time now and it still works just as fine as when i first got it 7 years ago. of course i have replace my remote battery now since its dying. i am not using my stock horns since i replaced them with 350Z JDM horns 
.
.but it IS what I want

Haven't posted on here in a while, but just noticed this thread.
You can very easily and safely put a remote starter onto a 5spd car and wire it so that it will NOT start in gear. 99% of remote start units have a hood open safety circuit that you can use. The stock manual transmission has a neutral sensor already in place (along with the reverse sensor). You can find the wire at the ECU. Wire this up to a relay and output it to the hood open safety input on the starter (you can keep the hood open feature too).
If you search on here, it's been posted many times in the past and should still be there somewhere.
Anyone who wires up a remote starter on a manual transmission Maxima and doesn't use the neutral sensor is either lazy or not very smart

I've been enjoying my IS300 and will probably be selling the maxima in the very near future.

IIRC, my 791xv has a nuetral safety input that will only allow the car to start when it sees ground, just like the hood pin circuit. Instead of a relay, I just used a diode. When it's in gear, it'll send ~5v. If it's in nuetral, it'll send ground. I used the diode so that the alarm didn't see ~5v. It just wouldn't see ground when in gear.
