I am creating a pretty thorough auto to manual swap guide (80% finished) it will be up in a day or so. It will talk about which wires to ground in order to start the car as well as pretty much everything else involved. many pictures. One thing to keep in mind is that if you do not get the ECU switched over to a manual "tune" it will always have the 4k rev limiter. However you should be able to start the car without the TCU if you grounded right. If you don't want to wait, check out the wiring diagram for these cars. I remember that only one wire needed to be grounded. Also you need to splice the communication wires somehow. These are green and white.

See wiring diagram page 70. Near top of page it shows Yellow-black wire that needs to be grounded. message me if you want wiring diagram.
