Worldwideweapon Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I am confused on what models and years the SI drive come on, I thought that they only came on the spec B's but I looked at a LGT yesterday and it had the SI drive, it was also automatic, this was a let down. Was this a spec B? Or do the normal GTs have it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this a members? It says it has paddle shifters?? Is this true? How are the paddle shifters? They're not paddle shifters per se. If you see on the steering wheel, each side has a plus and minus button (that kinda look like volume up and down buttons). Those are the up and downshift buttons (05 and 06 5EAT). 07+ 5EAT models have steering column mounted padde shifters (2.5GT, 3.0R). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worldwideweapon Posted April 14, 2011 Author Share Posted April 14, 2011 Oh that kind of sucks about the shift up and down buttons, kind turned off now wish it was MT oh well guess I'll keep looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomkat1127 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I think the SI drive, specifically the Sport# versus the Intelligent mode is a huge difference when the LGT is a automatic equipped 5EAT car. I believe 09 LGT (2010 is newest style or 5th Gen) was the last year Subaru included the SIDrive system on any car but WRX STI in which it lives on along with DCCD (Drive Controlled Center Differential).

LuckyBob Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I disagree. Slushbox? Maybe. I drive a MT so I don't personally know what it does with the TCU. MT? Modulate your foot better. Hell, S# makes less power than S anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Slushbox? Maybe. I drive a MT so I don't personally know what it does with the TCU. MT? Modulate your foot better. Hell, S# makes less power than S anyway. I've heard a bunch of people say that SI-Drive completely transforms the 5EAT cars. I find use in I-mode, but mostly because it reminds me to drive sanely. I get much better fuel economy when I relax and use cruise control. I'd be fine if I-mode were no different than S# but with a shift light. Someone did some dyno pulls in all 3 mods, and S# made more power than S. I remember reading something about how S#, in addition to throttle changes, also changes the "requested torque" values over S mode. I dunno. I rarely find myself in S mode. I spend most of my time in I or S#.

RabidWombat Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 SI-drive adjusts the 5EAT shift points to something best described as "video-game mode" downshifts occur if you get on the gas at all, upshifts are at the red line, and it will hold gears for 20+ secs with light throttle.

ALSO it allows for programmable boost levels. I have my SI tuned to 6/13/17psi, preferrably for fuel economy and the ability to switch maps at my discretion while driving. I mode is 6psi which is wastegate boost, S is 13 and S# is 17. All confirmed via boost gauge....it helps with fuel economy or when someone else is driving my car. I mode is like valet.

SBT Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Welcome to the site and your interest in LGTs. Glad to have you join up. At first blush, I'd say that an enthusiast owned this one and that at some point it it's life it's been modded. So keep that in the back of your mind if you're looking for an untainted LGT. This car does not have SI drive... it's an 06, wasn't available until 2007, so it's a moot point relative to this car. Any, OP welcome again. - Pro amore Dei et patriam et populum - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mzsinko84 Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 I know this is an old post and this post is pretty much useless, I may not know as much as others do but based on my experience driving am 05 Legacy GT Limited and an 06 Legacy GT Limited, yeah you can shift up and from the steering wheel but if the transmission shifter is in drive and you push it to the left, you can also shift up or shift down.
