The install was a easy and I went ahead and cleaned all the grounds.



Beats the hell out of the octopus under the hood.
Please don't comment on the filth under my hood

 

 

nice cai looks good

 

Alota nicer than some other kits i've seen that look like total trash very clean

 

to most people they wouldn't even notice the ground kit. Looks good!!!!

 

I guess cardomain is down again since none of the pics are showing up.

 

showing up for me...

 

don't see anything

 

any difference seen from this mod? headlights, idle etc...did it make a noticeable difference?

 

they work now, looks good

 

Intake looks familiar.

 

Thanks for the compliments everyone. Cumalot, yeah thanks again for the Injen and the price on it.
If anyone is interested in the affect the kit had on my car, look in this thread: http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....&page=15&pp=30

lol

i like my bling bling octopus

btw those two grounds on the knock sensor = i had one grounded to one of the knock sensor circuit as well...

 

Those two grounds cover every neccessary sensor and injectors. One is for the injectors, one is for all the sensors. Thanks for the compliment again.

 

Cullen what spring setup did you end up going with.

 

Tein H-Tech and Illuminas

 

how do i go about ordering this grounding kit?

 

just PM him

 

how much was it?

 

where did u get it and what other colors do they have and how much???

 

Very nice. I like the clean look. I have been looking for a ground kit that is black, all the other ones I find are ricey. I was about to make my own Do you kno the guage of the wire, and how much was it?

 

8 Ga. i think

 

one 4awg and three 8awg wires.

 

Sorry I haven't been able to provide pics for more info, but my website is down for the count.. (see threads about my BlehmCo brake kit in general forum for specifics on that).

Anyway.. colors that I currently have:
Clear/red
Solid red
clear/silver
clear/blue
clear/black
solid black
(again, I'd post a pic of all of them, but my website is down and I can't attach images here)

Prices are listed in my sig.. those numbers include shipping.

for the 4th and 5th gen kits, they have 4 wires. The three 8 awg wires cover all of the engine sensor grounding points as listed in the FSM. It also runs another ground to the alternator, so it will help benefit the system as a whole, but the majority of my efforts are on the engine. if you want upgraded headlights and horns and etc, then this kit doesn't offer that.
(although I will probably be building a headlight harness before too long due to several requests for it.)

the 4th wire is an additional 4awg ground strap between the battery - terminal and the factory engine block grounding point (where the OE 4awg wire is located).

Install is extremely simple. 20 min-1hour, depending on how well you want to hide the wires in the engine bay.

If you want stealth, then get the solid black. install it under the factory harness (like Cullen did), and it's almost invisible to anyone that doesn't know 4th gens as well as you do.
If you want something flashy, then go with red or blue and install it on top of the wiring harness. easy stuff!

for anyone that wants to ask more questions, please feel free to post them here or email me at matt93se@sbcglobal.net . (my PM box is almost full and I get 20+ a day, so that's chancy on it getting to me) I'll try to remember to come back and post pics of the available wire colors when I get my website up and running again.

 

What are the benefits of a Grounding Kit?

 

i'll definitely have to look into getting one...

 

jmrussel, look at post #12 in this thread for a link to Cullen's reports on the kit.

Guys, my website is FINALLY back up.. here's a pic of all the colors available, minus the solid black (which you already know what it looks like!)

 

Just to let ppl know I spent like $7 on my hyperground, but I didn't hide my wires.

 

Thanks for the input... it costs me that much just for the 4awg ground strap, let alone the rest of the kit.

 

Which CAI is that?

edit: ahh...Injen, nm

 

heck yea! it took me a GOOD minute to realize what i was looking at.very stealth, good choice of colors

 

So are you removing/replacing any stock grounding wires?

 

no, I didn't remove or replace any of them. I cleaned all the grounding straps on the motor and grounding tabs on the stock wires with a stainless steel dremel brush.
