polley 916 Report post Posted May 3, 2011 Ok so my 12 monster tacho's that im going to place across my dash have just turned up. I want to make a nice wiring loom and need to get some wire braid like this: Does anyone know where I can get this? I found it on RS but I dont want or need to buy 50 meters of it. I have also tryed Ideal electrical. Im thinking maybe I should try an auto sparky or some thing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I picked some nylon braid up off kerry today. http://nz.element14.com Also sell it, you can get it in 5 and 10 meter lengths, or buy it in rolls. I just ordered a bunch as I need some smaller stuff, it was like $4 for 5 meters, I thought that was a good price. Edited May 5, 2011 by polley Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
polley 916 Report post Posted May 6, 2011 (edited) The smaller braid turned up this morning, I think I ordered it on Thursday and it had come from Australia. So I finished my wide band loom off this morning. Ive made it to be universal since I will be getting a different wide band to use permanently in my car. I use this one to tune friends cars etc, I used a go pro suction mount to mount it to the wind screen. It can log 7 analog inputs + AFR and RPM and EGT. I've only wired up the RPM pickup and 2 analog inputs and the wide band of course, I doubt I will ever use more than that. Heres a shitty cell phone pic, I just need to add connectors for the battery and analog inputs. Looking forward to starting on the engine loom this weekend.
