Grounding kits still for Sale (For now anyway)

As it would turn out there was a far better turn out for my "last run" sale than I was anticipating by a long shot. The result is that maybe my assessment of demand was off and everyone was looking for that "sweet spot" price. With that much being said $45.00 is not sustainable unless I am selling the kits in bulk which I can't realistically count on. I am now selling the kit for $59.00 shipped.

As long as I can keep a quota of 3 kits a month I'll keep selling at the listed price with order form if not I will only take special orders that will come to the cost of materials, shipping + $30 dollars for my time. If you want to know what this means even the least expensive of my standard kits the 5th Gen will come to $69.00 shipped. Of coarse as the orders are special you could pick out cheaper wire, omit wires or come up with our own custom configurations to cut cost but just keep in mind all of such will effect the performance of the kit in ways that are either detrimintal at best an downright unknown at worst.

Here is the order forms and all other applicable information about the kits. There is no extra charge for shipping the U.S. however, there is a $6.50 surcharge for ship to Canada and Mexico. Everyone else needed to contact me for a quote. The order form links are just below:

United States Order Form

Canada and Mexico Order Form

Application Options

4th Gen Kit: $59.00

5th Gen $57.60

5.5 Gen Auto Kit: $59.00

5.5 Gen 6-Speed Kit: $59.00

Custom set up: $64.00

The 5th Gen kit comes with:

1 Throttle body to firewall ground
1 Battery to chassis Ground
1 Engine Block to Chassis Ground
1 Starter to chassis Ground
1 Timing Chain Cover to Chassis Ground

The 5.5 Gen kit come with:

1 Upper Intake Manifold to Firewall Ground
1 Battery to Chassis Ground
1 Engine Block to Chassis
1 Stater to Chassis Ground
1 Timing Chain Cover to Chassis Ground

4th Gen Kit comes with:

1 Air Intake to Firewall Ground
1 Battery to chassis Ground
1 Timing Chain Cover to Chassis Ground
1 Engine Block to Chassis Ground
1 Starter to Chassis Ground

All wires are made with Stinger Electronics HPM Hypertwist 4 AWG (1666 strand count). The terminal ends are heavy nickel plated copper and are wrapped in polyolefin shrink wrap. All kits come with step by step instructions that will be sent to your e-mail via PDF when the kit gets shipped out to your house.

Color Options:

Translucent Black



Crimson Red



Carbon Grey



Clear Silver



Island Blue



As for the benefits of the kit. For auto transmissions you will notice that the car is no longer resistant to downshifting. This means that the car is more responsive when punch on the gas as the transmission will respond quicker. Also when you slow down to a slow roll the car will downshift appropriately instead of staying in high gear and quickly shifting down. The shifts are also smoother and in general more "precise" feeling. Idle and high speed rev are smoother and I noticed that the power-band actually smoothed out a bit as well whereas before the kit it would seem the car was gasping post 5000 rpm it pulls a bit harder at rpm now (not a earth shattering difference but a mildly noticeable one). The car starts a little faster and stronger. The auxiliary electrical equipment like power windows, power seats move faster and lights all around are a bit brighter especially the headlights. Some people say it helps with mileage and many manufacturers of the kit say it ups horsepower . But basically what it does is reduce power spikes so that your cars various computers can operate more efficiently hence, allowing your vehicle to operate more like new is some ways and even better than new in others. The stock grounding system was designed to be cost cutting, light weight (for gas mileage) and to deteriorate over the years in order to "convince" people they "need" new cars this kit just curbs that normal curve of deterioration.

The benefits of the kit are more pronounced on cars with high power aftermarket sound systems.

My computer is down right now so I will have limited availibility for inquires so please be patient if I do not get back to you right away.

Can you keep just one thread for these??
http://forums.maxima.org/5th-generat...-run-sale.html

This IS more of a classifieds section, not really for businesses/vendors. One thread is more than enough.

I get you but if I don't keep people updated on the status of the kits all I am going to get is questions about it example: Are you still selling the kits? Do you still have X-Gen for sale? it is enough to drive you batty if you let it. As for the vendor thing I am not a business I do this on the side for a little cash but there is no stock, no business license, just a promise that I will make the product as described and will rectify any mistakes I make to the absolute best of my ability.

No, it is as easy to install as I could design it. I made sure all of the wires are installed in reasonably easy to get to spots in your engine compartment.
