Re: ground wire question (i240sx)
sorry no pics. was gonna do a write up on this, then found out theres already one and its almost exactly what i did.bisically i had a sh*t load of 4g lyin around. so i went and bought some copper terminals(search for the write up to see wich ones,same ones i used) and solderd them. i got about 4 on my car, 3 on my girls 200, and 3 on both my parents cars. you CANT have too many grounds.if you really want, get a steel plate,drill some holes, and run all your'new'grounds to it, then one fatty one to the negative terminal,voalla! instant grounding kit for like 5 buks
