Where's the best place (in AUS) to buy an LM-1 Wideband O2 sensor (inc. associated A/F meter)?

Any idea on cost?

Alternative recommendations are also welcome. :)

Try http://www.plxdevices.com/M-Series_productinfo.htm and look at the m-250

I have one, bought it direct from Innovate Motorsport in the US. Cost me USD$350 ~ $460 Oz dollars, plus freight. Look at their website and see who the agent in Australia is.

I believe Delco has one of these units.

To be honest, that's not really much of a mark up. By the time you add import duty, GST and airfreight, I'd bet there wouldn't even be $100 profit in it.

I bought my sensor with a heap of other gear, so the freight cost on that one item was negligable.

You could try importing one yourself but it will probably cost you the same amount. :(

Yeah, one of the members here referred me to that site... :) there's not that much difference in $$$ compared to the LM-1 unit, which looks like it's the 'ducks guts'.

If you know an experienced electronics person, the DIY kit is only $200,
sensor extra $$$, and use a laptop or pda ...

Thanks for your help, folks. I might be travelling to the States this year so I think I might hold off ...
