For those interested in the ground/earthing kits, I bought a set off ebay. They were the R-1 Ground Wire Kit, and it was a ton cheap than the Sun or HKS versions. but it was better than DIY cuz it came with an extra battery terminal, a distribution block, zip ties and all the ends crimped already.
I was too afraid I would make some shitty crimped ends which would fall off, so I bought this kit.

no pics yet... sorry!

Great, how much?

How does it work? Notice any difference? Worth the money?

check eebay for them, for about 30 bucks a set, you basically add ground wiring to create better grounds for differents parts of the engine... and my engine seems smoother..

how many wires were there? which was the most difficult one to get? the alternator?

etmoron

all the wires go back to the negative terminal of the battery ? im not sure how this whole thing works

igo4bmx

yeah for me the alternator bolt was hard to reach...

well there have been several theories behind where to mount all the grounds... either the negative side of the battery or a completely different location. There was a grounding block that came with the kit, which i mounted with a M6 bolt to the firewall... looks good too



i'll try to take pics today or tommorrow

igo4bmx

as you see, not only is the wiring crimped with ends, it comes with screws, zip ties and a battery block and a ground block...
