Is Eyesight worthwhile?


CWNZ

Recommended Posts

I am looking at BR Legacy GTs, and Eyesight has a price premium.

The specs of the imported cars are all over the place, and Eyesight can be optioned on seemingly any trim level.

I had a brief drive in a friends' BP Outback XT with Eyesight and it was very novel.

 

If you have Eyesight on your Subaru, what do you think of it?

Does it work well?

Is it annoying and you turn it off?

Has it saved you from a collision?

I haven't used it but know someone with it in a 2018 Outback and they rate it pretty highly... easpecially things like adaptive cruise control.

 

I hate cruise control personally, but any driver aid focussed on collision avoidance has to be good imo.

I don't keep up to date much on new cars anymore and was pretty confused coming into this thread like no s*** its important haha

 

Drove a brand new camry in the states in 2017 which had the adaptive cruise control and lane assist and collision avoidance which sounds a lot like this subaru equivalent. 

Never got to test the collision avoidance thankfully but on the large highways the adaptive cruise control was pretty awesome. I found the lane steering assist a really odd sensation. It felt like when you have a big gust of wind push you to the side in a light car. 

 

I can see it being a very good way to avoid rear ending someone if you lose concentration in traffic or fall asleep on a long drive etc.

Mate has a Outlander PHEV with similar features. 

It helped him avoid a crash on an off ramp when there was sunstrike, and a car directly in front of him slowed down very very quickly. 
It's definitely a feature where if I had the choice, I'd definitely go for it.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
