From what I understand it should be fine in our winters, it has warranty as well so I guess we will see! You have a PM.

Hey Gents

If you have an iphone get the Trapster app and you can see any live traps and camera etc all around town

I use it all the time and just added the Sheriffs on Hwy 216 N just after you turn from Henday onto 216. They were parked in the DITCH on the right hand side right after the overpass that goes over 216 that has no hwy access, it is for locals. They were making money all afternoon in both directions

Totally feeling the itch to get the M out but I can't even get out of my alley now.
Got a Rogue Engineering shifter on order, due mid month. Got it at IND.

It is the Cadillac of shifters and is f'in nice. Really well thought out and designed for driving her hard.

They really hit every aspect of the design and after it is all done you can still use the factory boot and knob which I think are great already.

I have the UUC SSK installed a few months ago and its been great, no complaints. The throws is much shorter and smoother. A definitely must get for the 6MT.

I am interested in the PhotoBlocker, if it really works. Mythbusters did few episodes where they tested all the myths they could find regarding different methods of fooling radar and laser guns. Nothing worked

Is there a big lag difference in time?

Yeah mods are like xmas all year round

There is a slight lag on trapster but I usually give it look and see my route and take a look for any updates.

Any links or info on the photoblocker?

I actually already ordered my Laser Interceptor unit from a group buy on 6speedonline. Maybe you guys can find a group buy to join in on. I briefly dealt with Cliff from LI and the guy was very helpful.

I know they're still finalizing the kit from Cheetah but I might be interested if the unit is released within a week or two.

As for the Photoblocker... I was under the impression those didn't work? I never really heard any great reviews on such items.

Please keep us updated on this unit. I was very interested in the pre order IND had on those units but I'm not a person to purchase untested products. I do love Rogue Engineering products though and what they showed was very tempting.

I don't think the ones they are are selling are untested. Jersey Girl got one and had good review and this design is similar to others they have built.

I'll keep everyone informed

Anyone else getting a laser interceptor or anything along those lines? I am interested in something like this. What kind of prices should I be expecting?

Glenn,
Saw your car parked in the parking lot near DQ @ 111 St. and Ellerslie road today at about 6pm

I got my Duals for $625 US plus $35 for shipping. This is $75 cheaper then on their site due to a group buy on 6speed. From time of purchase to arrival was about 4 business days.

Sorry I should have specified, I meant about the 3.62. I am going to have to pull the trigger, it sounds like the most bang for the buck period for DCT. I am going to hold off on the Ti exhaust and get the escort 9500ci radar/laser setup instead. Try to save my butt. The exhaust looks awesome but really does little.

Oilers, pfff, those bastards have shaved years off of my life!

Man! You have two days of M school! Nice! Do you plan on tracking your beast a lot. I really don't have much experience along the lines of tracking. Would love to though, are you going to do any tracking here?

My fiance lives about 5 minutes from the Save-On

I agree for the DCT the 3.62 will make a huge driving difference.

Are you gonna go south or stay local? I've been told Bavaria charges the labour time not the time Dinan quotes so there could be some $$$ savings.

I am 5 mins away too.

I'll PM you when I get back, luv to see the car.

I might track it, I'll see how fast I really like to go. That or I am gonna scare the hell out of myself. I'm still all talk.
