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.

Yeah, the steel braid is pretty cool.

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.

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.
