No immobilizer on any Subaru's yet.

They all come with keyless. The optional alarm is an add-on unit to the factory keyless. Not all of them come with it, and the customer pays extra for it. There is no easy way to bypass it. It does not have an arm or disarm wire. It has a starter kill, so you would have to wire after it. It also has a built in shock sensor. I think there are also multiple ignition inputs at the factory brain (not sure where its located) that need to be interrupted. I haven't attempted to interrupt a Subaru alarm in a while, but they are not fun. If you want an alarm, stop using the factory one and put in an aftermarket alarm/remote start.

No relays/resistors needed. Do you understand the tech sheet, or have you just started doing remote starts? Simple car.

About the possible factory alarm. Roll down window....hit lock on remote....wait 2 minutes....reach in window and open door. What happens?

Don't worry it's a easy Car to do.If you are adding new remotes on it and you have the power lock and power unlock wires.Once you have these wires the power unlock will disarm this and when you remote start car the factory alarm won't turn on.
