goldenC4 Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 Have the passport 8500 X50 with the ZR3 Shifter laser jammer. Love it! It's saved my bacon a few times.This is a "performance meter", not a radar detector. Like the old G-tech ones, but a little more advanced. I'll post up some details when I get it next week. Hopefully I can get some before and after exhaust system numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Y Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I'll see if I can't "appropriate" a laser or radar for testing purposes one of these days... I can't believe a jammer works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kens06 Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 I'll see if I can't "appropriate" a laser or radar for testing purposes one of these days... I can't believe a jammer works.Ted, the concept is simple!!#1 Signal detected, overload the radar to give a false reading which gives you time to hammer the brakes.#2 when radar detected, shoot a stronger signal at the frequency that shows under the posted.It's a computer chip race for the big buck items!!Mythbusters already did a show on it!They showed they are bogus!!Those Infomercials DO work!! I've got this land......................................Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Y Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 I thought I remembered that. Our radars are instant on and get a speed immediately. I don't see how a jammer would be able to react fast enough. As for the Lidar, all I have to do is point it at the front bumper. The laser beam is only about 1' wide at about 500' or so. The laser detector wouldn't even see the beam let alone 'jam' it. It sounds bogus even without a test.They should call them 'ticket detectors'.

Guest Kens06 Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 And now we have turned this thread upside down!!If G meters weren't cool, would GM have included them in the C6 HUD??Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desertdawg Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 That looks better than the old Gtech. Just think, you have G meter for your E ticket ride... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The C6 meter only measures lateral force but it's a lotta fun through corners. I try to see how high I can get it. So far it's been to .57 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert and Elizabeth Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 .57? I think I've done that in Jenna's Jeep! Yeah, I think I've been in the .8-.9 already. Cornering is my specialty. I can't remember exactly what the highest was because my eyes are on the road, not the HUD when I do serioius cornering. But, I do leave that mode on at all times so I can glance when I want to.

Bigfoot Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 I don't have a meter, but I can feel when I've reached the limit. When that nose just starts to slide and the tires are screaming (that's called "pushing" in NASCAR terms, some may call it understeer). What a blast.

Eddie44 Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 .57? I think I've done that in Jenna's Jeep! As E says, that's the highest I've seen. Much higher and my eyes aren't on the HUD. I'm sure I had it up to at least the .7 or .8 range going up Yarnell hill playing with that Audi TT but DPS spoiled that fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
