Earthing kit group buy (First 27 cheques banked!!)
I think I maybe able to get some earthing kits at a lower price for a group buy.
Think most seam to be advertised around the £35 mark, however if I can get 10-15 people I think I maybe able to get them for about £25 +P&P maybe a little less, I have not really gone into this yet. Just want to see what the take up would be on these.
They kits include
Gold plated battery terminal/distrubution block
Translucent Black heavy duty cable terminated in 8mm ring connectors. Each is cut to the correct length, and links the appropriate parts.
The kit earths the ECU, left strut, right strut, front body, left mainifold, right maniflod, alternator and starter motor.
So who would be intrested and what is the best price people seam to be able to get? If I have a traget then I may be able to barter and get them a bit cheaper....
All I need is a number rather than a definate response...
SEE TOP OF PAGE TWO FOR PRICING STRUCTURE AND PICTURE OF KIT, THEN PLEASE ADD YOUR NAME TO THE LIST.

Cheers Guys for the intrest.
Right I a getting these through a mate how is an electircal engineer and so is able to buy cable wholesale. He thinks he can get the price down if he buys more than two drums of cable.
Unfortunatly the only colour avalible is BLACK, it is a translucent black if that helps. It is a functional kit rather than "under bonnet bling" (Except for gold battery clamp)
http://images1.fotopic.net/?iid=y301...ze=1&nostamp=1 They will look something like this.
Now 10 kits will be £25 + P&P
15 kits £22 + P&P
20 kits £20 + P&P
25 kits or more will be £20 inc P&P
I think P&P will be about £3 for UK (and a bit more for sweeden, but probably under £5)
Put your names on a list below to confirm. If everyone who as expresses an intrest confirms then we are looking at £22 +P&P at the moment.

I have just looked again on E-bay and there are no Impreza specific kits, but the best price is £34 + P&P. These E-BAY kits only include 5 60Amp grounding wires and the battery clamp, however the impreza kit contains 7 X 75Amp and 1 X 60amp grounding wires and a battery clamp, so I think they have to be seen as a major bargin.
So to start the list

The wire looks eactly like the bottom left picture on the site linked above. I think the wire you have is 16mm which is rated at 160amps which is way in excess of what the kit will have to take, the cable used in this kit is 10mm in the engine bay and 8mm to the ECU (The smaller guage helps with threading through the bulkhead and bend to the ECU grounding point.)

I read that people were after different colours, is it not possible to sleeve the cables in heat protective rap as a form over covering?
My plan is to use braided steel flexible conduit hose to give it that clean look.
Only a suggestion but worth exploring, any idea's slap them on this group buy thread!
Cheer,
Chris
