That will work but the extra diode on the connection between the R/S and Pin 85 in Howard's diagram won't hurt and depending on the R/S's circuit design might protect the R/S a bit.  Diodes are cheap insurance.   1995 celica remote starter - Page 3 -- posted image.

Do I tap into the ignition wire from the RS or from the car itself?. Or does it matter?

Doesn't matter.  Being as the R/S Ignition1 wire is already connected to the vehicles Ignition1 wire, they are electrically the same.  I generally keep the extra relays somewhat close to the R/S brain, keeps things tidy.

Why am I placing a diode across 85 and 86 please explain it

Solder a red wire to terminal 86 of a relay.! Solder a black wire to terminal 85 of the relay. Now hold your index finger on one terminal and your thumb on the other. Have a friend touch the other end of those wires to the respective terminals of your battery. Now have him remove and replace one of those wires. He may have to do it several times in a quick manner for you to get the full effect. The pain that you feel is the voltage spike that occurs any time an electromagnet is turned off. As you could imagine that voltage spike is not liked by a lot of the electrical equipment in your vehicle. The diode eliminates this spike. It doesn't hurt real bad. Go ahead try it. No really it doesn't. It's only 12 volts how could it shock you?

I was concerned that the voltage would choose that path because of the low resistance.

When the coil to a relay is shut down, you get an EMP in excess of 200 volts, more than enough to fry the alarm-R/S brain.
IMO it should be mandatory. You can either place it on the relay, band side to the +coil or in-line on the aux from the alarm.
Any aux from any alarm feeding relays should be so protected that's why I specify 1N4004 with a PIV of 400 volts.
Also known as an anti-spike, or quenching diode.
Sorry Kregg I couldn't resist that previous post.

Hey thanks guys. Starter works great!! Had a few issues due to the fact that the hood pin was not catching the hood!! Then after I got that figured out I realized that the clutch had to be bypassed. If it wasn't for the 12volt site I may never have figured this out.
