Just register the timer in your keyboard callback:

def timer1():
    print 'Elapsed time:',viz.elapsed(), 'seconds'

def onkeydown(key):
    if key == ' ':
        quad.add(MovingRoom)
        vizact.ontimer(60,timer1)

Also, in the future please use the [code][/code] tags when posting code snippets. It preserves the indentation, which is necessary for python scripts.
