Nismo Hyper goround on EBAY

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...921707670&rd=1

Anyone see this on ebay? what do you think?
I'm not sure about the orange wire but the price is right if your not motivated to make your own

Looks like a great deal to me. That's probably cheaper than making it your own if you had to also buy the crimping tools.

that does look good. i was considering getting the Matt Blehm ones too, but im not sure what i need to ground, or where to connect things. i DO like the orange in there tho, its kinda neat.

i got that one off e-bay... only in blue. its pretty good quality. no complaints here.
and it has a negative battery terminal add-on so u dont have to screw in all the wires to the same place.

do they come with instructions on what to do?

and you guys who have them, did you feel the differences that Matt describes on his website. such as, a better power distribution in the 2-1 downshift at low speeds stoplight slow down/speed ups?

Anyone have pic's of the wires installed? Today, my set of these wires from ebay arrived....they look pretty good. Where does the NISMO circle go? Did you ground the points as suggested on the packaging?

Not like it matters - but just so you know, this hyperground is not actually made by NISMO. It's just a knock off.....you can probably find ones by the same seller that say "Mugen" on them....

like I said, not like it matters, real NISMO doesn't mean quality necessarily.

yeah, i know they arent nismo, but i mean, wires are wires, ya know. but yeah, they probably have Mugen and RalliArt and whatever.

but i would really like to know how these get installed too. does the package tell me all i need to know? the circle confuses me, haha. i guess i will understand better once i see it, but im still confused as to where to start.

can't help you there...I made my own. The main advantage to making your own is all the wires are exactly the right length...the universal kits like the ebay have standard-length wires not custom...I did a how-to on pg 16 of my homepage just in case you're interested in doing your own....

but how do you know which points to ground? thats where im confused. like, i think there are 6 points in the BC kit, but how do you know which points?

not sure exactly which one matt(blehm) uses in his kit...but most likely the attachment points are
1. battery
2. right body ground
3. left body ground
4. engine block
5. alternator
6. tranny(?)

Matt has good service though and I'm sure would respond quick if you asked him. I'd get his kit over the ebay since his kit is actually made for the specific car so all the wiring is the right length....

i have the ebay style one, all my wires connect to that cicrle thing, and then one runs off to the batt -. i mounted the circle to that empty hole above the "twin cam" on the engine cover. i have the larger engine cover so everything is hidden.
