    Default STi-R

    Found a site that claims to sell new ones. I would post the ad, but not sure if that is allowed.

    I have seen that some people have been able to find some leftover new ones, so I am just checking to see if the ad might be legit. So, is it possible that its a new one?

    Doubt it's for real because if new ones were available Bel would be selling them. It might be the + version but they aren't marketed in the US. Sounds sorta scamy to me. Get some more info about the units and post again what price ect.

    1)You cannot post the website, because it sells competing product of RB.COM

    2)You are correct in being hesitant. The Bel Sti-R has been discontinued for an extremely long amount of time. Any company that sells them 'as brand new', one has to be very wary of. The odds of having much leftover stock at this point is slim.

    3) -As aforementioned- It isn't the Sti-R Plus is it? That unit is in current production, and you can buy them new in virtually every high-end RD outlet (outside the US).

    That isn't entirely true... there were a few reputable places (people) selling them for awhile even after Bel was out of their stock.

    I live in a ban area. Thinking of the Redline also.

    Lots of Bel's have been modified for the Euro market over the years, May not be suited for US market as they limit the Ka band to photo radar only, and most have X completely removed
