I've got an escort 8500 in my 87 supra. Got it for $160 in australia.

I have to agree - valentine one is the way to go. You can also get a remote face for it, so you can place the detector hidden in the corner, and the display somewhere in the dash, so there is not just a radar just sitting suction-cupped to your windshield.

Valentine One, hands down.

Search for them on Ebay, that is the cheapest place I have found them.

Does anyone have those radar jammer things? I can't remember what the company is called, but they say they'll pay your ticket if you get one...suppossedly the thing scrambles the signal from the radar gun and makes it impossible to clock you.
sounds like a bunch of BS to me.

I've got the photo blocker and a phase 2 jammer cuz the cops know my ride around here.

showpaojoe

I don't remember anything about them paying for a ticket, then again, I haven't had one in a while

my mom has a jammer in her volvo....she doesnt drive fast, so she never gets pulled over....but when they have those radar reminder things set up in the road, it effectively scrambles that thing....it just reads two dashes instead of a number.

Hey Guys Am still alive been wayy 2 busy havent been 2 the meets for a long time homefully i be able to come by soon.

Well theres a companny called Blinder http://blinderusa.com/ They sell a Laser Jammer that works great but you cant get away with it. a cop will aim at you with his laser gun and if he doesnt get a reading on your car he trys a difrent car and if that works he aims it back on your car and still no reading he will pull you over. He will ask you to pop the hood. issue you a fine and take the device.

Hey bro...long time no see!

I think we are looking at detectors and not so much jammers...lol.

Anyway--Valentine One...the only one I would seriously recommend...I mean if you don't want the best, why are you even going to try to have a radar detector?

HotBox

Why am I the only one struttin the 8500? How is the valentine so much better that you don't even recommend the 8500?

HotBox

oops my bad i thought it said you can



your not the only one i have one too im just looking for one for my dad. ive read alot of the radar tests and alot of people want/like the valentine becuase of the arrows that tells you where the laser is coming from. reports said that the 8500 performs just as good as the valentine and sometimes better. the 8500 is also more user friendly and you can also keep the annoying X bands to a minimum
