Default Wideband AND quadrant

I know these are two completely seperate points here but figured I'd give a plug for both......For the wideband, I am going to purchase one soon for my 85 for tuning purposes to see AFR mainly at cruise and WOT with and without NO2 in use, anyway , ANYONE know what is a decent Wideband TO PURCHASE?? if so any links???.

....AS for the quadrant issue...My 89 vert has a adjustable cable and aftermarket quadrant, I am converting back to stock so the wife doesn't have to use two feet to depress the pedal, I am interested in a stock 5.0 pedal set up with quadrant, I am willing to trade my aftermarket quadrant and cable set up for such which is in good shape.

Is it the cable that makes it harder? What quadrant are you using? My pedal is still effortless after the MM quadrant and adjuster install, although I am using a stock cable. Maybe the difference lies in the clutch?

it's a cf df clutch, I used a stock quadrant and cf df clutch in my 85 and pedal is easy as can be, same with my 92, but I got a bright idea and decided to install all the fancy stuff in my 92 and it made pedal pressure go up due to the angle at which the pull is now based on the design of the half moon, and before the swap the 92 had great pedal feel, so I'm about 90 percent sure the problem lies there, since my whole dash in the 89 is out the swap over will be fairly easy

dunno^^^haven't really gotten to look that hard.......problem is when they installed it they forked up the bracket that the clutch switch mounts in so the assembly is kinda messed up so I figured I'd just replace it all with a undamaged unit

I just ordered the Zeitronix wideband for mine. If you have a labtop it can datalog up to nine hours. They are $279 new. (Iheard they can be found cheaper)

I got mine used with a egt gas probe, boost map sensor and lcd screen for 345 on corral.
The lcd screen won't datalog, you still need the labtop.

Here is a link to there site. http://www.zeitronix.com/Products/zt2/zt2.htm
