  1. So you didn't look at the factory manual, never tested the wire and your calling me out?

     

    Look at the diagram from the Subaru factory manual, explain to me the 5 wire part so apparently I am a dumbass.

    Woah, wait a second here. I am in no way calling you a dumbass, just including my own experience in working on these cars.

     

    I test every wire before I interface with it and yes, it is a 'positive' trigger in a sense. However, a 5 wire system acts just like a positive trigger, except that the switch side needs to be isolated from the 12v pulse when you activate the trunk release. It very well could be a simple positive circuit.

     

    All my information tells me its 5 wire, it acts like a 5-wire system when you test it, and in one case I've known that the BCM side seeing 12v fries the stock remote trunk release. How you choose to wire your car is fine with me. I work on other peoples cars for a living, and I can't afford to possibly mess up their car. So what is the extra hassle of hooking up one extra wire on a relay just to prevent any possible damage from occuring in the first place?

     

    Don't get so defensive on a forum. We are all here to help and learn from each other. I am simply trying to voice my input on the subject. In no way was I trying to attack you or what you said.

  2. i find it hard to believe the trunk on all legacies is not 5- wire. I install remote starts non-stop throughout the winter and have done many legacies including my own.

     

    Another worker at my shop accidentally wired the 5 wire relay backwards and blew up the ECM output for the trunk release. The trunk release still works just fine through the aftermarket remote, however the trunk release thru the OEM remote was rendered useless.

     

    Regardless, who cares if its only positive? A 5-wire relay is 1 extra wire than a positive switching relay, and there is plenty of room on the legacy to cut the wire to interface with it.

  3. spotted a black gt with rbs lip, grill, bronze or gunmetal wheels, with an sti badge in your grill and looked like embroidered headrests at Widow browns this afternoon in Brookfield, CT

  5. I would have made a joke about his mom in the back of the wagon if he pissed me off lol, I guess I am just sophomoric like that. Or maybe just said, “you want to race” with a shit eating grin? But that sounds like he was being nice enough?

  6. Hey Guys,

     

    Thanx for the responses. Well I just bought the Lite Fins, checked out the Tenzo GF7s Hyper Black, but something told me to buy the Lite Fins. Being put on Thursday. So I will be heading out that night to take some pics. But here is what they look like. Finally found a good reference pic with these rims. BTW Love the gold on the wagon Scottybue.

     

    i really want to see installed pics of these....

     

    what are the specs on the wheels? offset and weight?

  7. The first rule of backorder: Since you're going to wait anyway, order immediately so you're farther ahead in line. The first shipment(s) might not be enough to satisfy all the demand and the part will still be backordered.

     

    yeah yeah i know...but waiting made me remember I have some other things to take care of before I order this :lol:
