My dad is traveling to Va this weekend and he will be taking the STi with him!!! i told him where and how to conceal it, on dark mode, and if he does get i/o'd dont slam on the brakes. Also I know there is a lot of 35.5 Ka, some K and laser but wat other things should i tell him to be aware of? thx
Why would you tell him not to slam on the brakes? If he is going over the PSL by more than 10 I would recommend slamming on the brakes and if he gets pulled over just say that he saw the officer. STi is not detectable anyways so just make sure he hides it.
because then the leo would no he is usin an RD regardless whether or not it can be picked up...i dont no percentages but i think most VSP do not have spectres
That's why I said he could just tell the LEO that he saw him, that's why he slammed on brakes.Quote:

he drives around with a v1 and has been using the STi for the past month or so
Being in front is asking for trouble. You should advice him to use a rabbit. The thing about using a radar detector just does not include reaction to an alert but more on being proactive by assessing the current situation all the time and the art of being defensive in any given situation and that includes a rabbit. There is no way you can avoid IO if you were the one in front.Quote:

Fast forward to a recent encounter, I got hit with instant on by cop behind me when I was doing ~15+ PSL. I instintively used the ebrake to slow down and the was staring into my car as he drove by. Had my brake lights lit, I have no doubt he would have pulled me over.
