          My cable showed up yesterday. All i can say is money well spent!

          My car would randomly not turn over, like turn key and nothing. Replaced my old frayed engine ground cable. Now the car turns over everytime! Im assuming the starter wasnt grounding bc of the old cable.

          Awesome product and definately worth every penny. I would buy these cables over OEM anyday.

            Thanks, guys. Glad you are happy with them.

            I'm driving to Richmond, VA today but keep the orders coming. I'll get them out ASAP.

              Saw one of these in person last night when my friend (silence on here) showed me the one he purchased.

              Quality connectors and cables all the way, but personally I'll be using 0 gauge :D

                  Everyone who has placed an order within the last week should have their cables by the end of this week.

                  Except for Canadian orders - which can take up to 2 weeks due to customs.
                  Heated windshield squirters were an option on some e30's in certain climates. Maybe thats why the hood cable exists even though it seems to be overkill.

                  Paypal'ed you for two cables shipped to San Diego. Thanks!

                      That's exactly how I like my wires. I'm in.

                          Out of curiosity why not crimp? The local race shop tried to talk me out of soldering new lugs on my battery cable. They told me crimping is just as / possibly more secure.

                            Main reason, I don't have a crimper that large. I don't see any reason why you would need it more secure than with soldering. Plus soldering makes it easier for me to seal with the shrink tubing. Not sure I could keep the one end sealed if the end was crimped.

                            I might take one and see if it will pick up an m20. Its a pretty durable connection

                              From doing some of these myself for personal use I would have to say the ends looks better when its soldered and not crimped. I personally haven't had any problems with mine in 3 years of running them and I use it in a full size bronco I take off roading all the time.

                                For sure, I think why they discouraged it for the main battery cable is stories of so much current being passed through that it melted the solder.

                                For a ground wire, I'm sure the solder is perfect.

                                Back to your normal scheduled FS ad, sorry for the distraction.
