  1. no it only disables the chime. It's in the service manual as the way to do it, no worries.
  2. finished the install...piece of cake. I posted up a review and a video of the operation if anyone is interested. So far, thumbs up to the Leptronix Aux-in. http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2542067
  3. my Leptronix Aux-In came in today, fast shipping from CA. I'll let everyone know how the install goes.
  4. Sebastien, a few questions. 1) So once the board is installed and as long as the switch is on 'Auto' or 'On' whatever is playing over the aux-in will play? Basically, all I listen to is my iPod, so I want to hear that whenever I start the car without having to press ANY buttons. 2) Does the unit actually switch the sources? i.e. If I am listening to the radio and start playing something over the aux-in does the radio stop playing, or do you get both sources unless you switch the headunit to CD or something? 3) Is the remote switch removable? If it's removed what 'mode' (Auto/On/Off) is the aux-in unit in? 4) Is there a signup list for ordering? What's the process? Sorry if some of this is in the french manual
  5. As long as RedFloyd stands behind his product I'm not concerned about vendor status. I don't think the $70 would change anything. I'm just excited to try this out! keep us posted RedFloyd.
  6. Interested as well, would like to see an english manual first, but this sounds like an awesome design.
  7. yeah i'd imagine with the the class time it will be pretty boring. but props to her for wanting to come. my wife wouldn't come if i paid her.
  8. ^ sounds like it's time for some MR Coilovers...i'm still on the fence, damn it.
  9. if only 1, i'd definitely go tires! it'll improve braking and cornering. i'm on Falken 912's right now. much better better than re92s, but that's all i have to compare them too on the obxt.
  10. i'm going for the beginner group and with the OBXT i'll just hang out in the rear with my pogo suspension and tiny brakes I'll be upgrading the pads, but still not sure about going to coilovers yet.
  11. i signed up for the first session, will be the first time to have the car on a track. i am pretty excited, i signed up last year, but wasn't able to make it. hopefully coilovers are in my future.
  12. exactly it isn't an oversteer issue or even really the feeling of loosing forward traction, it is an oscillating wiggle in the rear of the car. I like how everyone just assumes it's bad driving. No one is saying 'my car keeps sliding into a ditch when I try to pass people doing 80 mph on a icy road'.
  13. back on topic...(I also cross posted this on subaruoutback.org) Well I guess I'll post here since I have now had this happen to me twice (at least twice it was very noticeable) My first experience was going on a straight flat road, which was ice covered and it was VERY unsettling. The back end would "wiggle" and it was hard to keep it going in a straight line. At that time there was a decent cross wind so I attributed it to that. My experience today was on the interstate, ice covered, and the same feeling, but not quite as bad (I have since replaced the RE92 tires, but I have gone to an 8" wheel, which I would assume would just make snow driving worse) Both times it seems I have had a full load, 5 people in the car, ski stuff in the back and 5 skis/snowboards on the top. I have driven numerous time with only my wife in much worse conditions and I have not had any issues. Granted it's hard to compare conditions, but I do feel more stable with 2 people and 2 skis, rather than a full load. Either way, it's not a fun feeling and all I can seem to do is slow way down and let people pass. I'd love to have an explanation, cause it sucks.
  14. and safer....IMO. Not saying this method is dangerous, but at least the click method is in the service manual.
