I have no idea on a 5-speed starter, but I'm willing to bet one is thick from the battery, and one is thin from the ignition switch (to energize the solenoid).

I know the that there are 2 wires one from the ignition and one from the battery, but the starter wire from the battery splits into to seprate wires, and i dont know were one of them goes.

sorry, I thought you meant at the starter.
I think you're gonna give yourself a forehead smack on this one(unless of course I've misunderstood again)...one goes to the starter the other is from the alternator via the fusible link, i.e., the charging wire. |

I found out that the extra wire is a ground wire its looked like it spliced out of the negative wire for the starter any idea to were it goes?

Starter Wire SWAG
My SWAG (sophistical wild a_s) guess) is that it goes to a floor switch to complete the circuit.
Example my 00 Legacy 5speed requires I nearly put the clutch through the floor board to complete the starter circuit. If you have access to an ohmeter and simple continuity check will tell you what's what. |

yeah ....maybe a nuetral safety switch for the automatic. I'm looking at the power distribution and I don't really see anything that splits except for a white wire. Looks like it goes to the alternator and a 45A fuse ............what color's the wire?
See if these help at all: http://www.expertwebcreations.com/pe...svx/power1.gif http://www.expertwebcreations.com/pe...svx/power2.gif http://www.expertwebcreations.com/pe...vx/starter.gif
