After another weekend of driving Jersey's highways and having my shitty escort radar detector going off evet 2 min. I came home and bought the beast!
Anone here have one? If so what do you think of it? I'll be testing it all week and let everyone know if it's worth the $400 |
It is supposed to be the, but I have no experience.
|
Damn too rich for my blood!
Good luck! |
You need a Radar Jammer, not a detector. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png
Although Valentine One is #1 in the detector world. |
Wtf is that thing.lol
Where are you tring to detect cops in Cuba? |
$400? Hell no. Unless it controlls lazer guided missiles I shoot at cops when they chase me...
|
Valentine 1 been on the market for like 10 years, maybe more[QUOTE]Wtf is that thing.lol

for like 80 dolalrs u can get the radar jammer
|
jammers hardly work anymore. I forgot thr website, but its the website thats like consumer reports, but for radar/laser detectors. Anyways, Val 1 got like 3rd, and they were taliing about how defussers and jammers dont really work anymore, because of the bands that they cops use now adays.

You could also drive the speed limit!!! :P
|
well that works too. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png
I only drive 'fast' when im racing .. other than that i like to go the speed limit so i dont waste gas (gas is getting expensive :( ) and right now I can think of 100 things better to spend $700 on than a ticket. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png I mean, come on, thats like a pair of slicks and some shitty wheels! Oh, btw, my HKS TT is in the mail .. or so rx7store.com says. I bought a few things from them, and they are slow as ****. I dont think im gonna buy from them anymore. But this friday i buy my turbo back rb exhaust and my FCD... yay! |

Don't give that shitty forum your money! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/moon.gif Go through Racing Beat, Mazdatrix, and maybe rotormotorsports (if I ever get my gauges, and pod https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif ) |
Don't own one, but have traveled with people who do. They are one of the best for sure. Worth the $$ if you do a lot of highway driving.
Detectors are legal in a good number of states, jammers and whatnot are hella illegal everywhere. Beyond not working. |
I have one, it's in my glove box. Saved me a TON of tickets when I used to speed (1-hr commute to work gets old). But now, I don't need it. I find myself actually going 5-10 over, which doesn't warrant a ticket.
My dad has a jammer... that thing is the ****. |
damn this is an old thread..

550..
considerin the time frame... the cost of it now is reasonable |
It's worth it. Up here you can go 140km/h without the cops bothering you (speed limit is 100km/h) but if you go 150km/h you can have your car impounded and you can get fined 5k.

isnt it illegal to have radar in ontario....
got pulled over in toronto and and almost had the v1 confiscated... |
Isn't it not exactly legal anywhere?
|
It's not ILLEGAL though. Jammers are. Actually it IS illegal in VA / DC.
|
no radar detectors are only illegal in a few states.
i've wanted a valentine 1 forever, but everytime my "fast" cars are on the road they breakdown before i have enough time to buy one https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif kevin. |

There's a couple that hide really well I'll need one of those https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif

The previous owner of my Legacy hard-wired it for a V1. I should take advantage of that.
