Make one up at local electrical supplier? Not sure on pricing, but if you batter your eyelids a bit you might get it trade or close to.

What do you require? I have 16mm and 25mm flexible power cable here plus copper crimp lugs to suit. $13.68+ GST a metre for 25mm and about $6 a metre for the 16MM ( cheaper in comparison to the 25MM as we buy it off a diff supplier and more in bulk ).

what else would you need?

hey um fuse and fuse holder... battery terminals... and RCA leads I guess...

looking at the prices of all the RCA leads, fuse holders and battery terminals i think i may just suck it up and get the $120 kit from supercheap and be a tightass for the rest of the week lol

yeah I guess the kit is the easy way haha just costs a bit more.

if anybody needs any electrical gear I work at Egleys on Hutt Road, Petone - I will look after Toyspeeders best I can.

We can also get Ampro, King Tony and Koken tools.

i ended up going with the SCA kit, $115 and came with some kind of digital 150 amp fuse and it has a voltmeter on it, im sure it was worth the extra 20 bucks or so over a plain pieced together kit just for the fuse and volt reader thing.

cakky, ill probably be in the next week or two to get some 4 gauge for my big 3. im guessing ill need about 3-4m...

anyway im off to increase my headache with this bloody loud thing in my trunk now

Never ask for trade at a wholesaler. The salesperson will giggle as they happily charge you trade and make a huge profit. Trade in wholesale terms is similar to RRP in retail terms. For example we charge our account customers "trade" on items cable/sockets etc and then they get a discount from that, 30-40-50% etc depending on what it is.
