Hey guy/gals,

I've been designing and manufacturing grounding kits for the G35 and 350Z. Some of the Maxima crew want kits too.

Do any of the Altima crew want grounding wires?

Benefits:

More power and fuel efficiencyEngine revs faster (gets you into the power band quicker)Auto transmissions shift quicker and smoother. Less hunting for gears.Brighter headlightsCleaner sound from speakers

Basically all of the electronics in your car (especially sensors) will work better because of the grounding kits.

Check my signature for details regarding quality and features.

If you're interested, have questions, concerns...etc. Let me know. Also, please post up your gen as the kits are car/gen specific.

Also, if anyone with an altima, IN MY AREA, wants to volunteer for testing, I'll give you a substantial discount on your kit. Testing won't hurt your car btw. I think I already have an 06 or 07 for testing.

If anybody wants to pay for my ticket to NY and has a room for my wife and me, I'd be happy to give you free kits

Is it safe to assume that the A/C and Altima SE guys will be the ones most interested?

His kits are really nice. Highly recommended

Grounding wires are added to fix a problem, that naturally exists. Electrical resistance is extremely hinderant on an engines function, and holds you back from performance. From the ECU, to its sensors, they all need to "communicate" succesfully to get the best power out of your car. The best way to do this, is to help the electrical current. IE- grounding kit

Have you tested this to see if there is any actual benefit rather than theoretical benefit? Just curious if it can even be tested...

Thanks for the heads up! Sounds interesting. Not sure if I'd put out the cash for one though considering I've had no problems with running my speakers full blast with headlights on. Never noticed any flicker, even on heavy bass tracks.

I'm sure someone here would be interested though.

Someone IS interested You don't have to take my word for it, but when we do the install on my car, I will take before and after shots of the engine, and lighting. With then computer systems in my car, now controlling new fuel injectors, pump, timing, etc, for the turbo, I will gladly take the sure path for electrical control. Cars these days are run completey by computers. Why not have the best running computer system you can?

So, If we invest in your kit would you be open for a GB price?

I am interested in the kit because of the grounding alone. If I gain HP in the process then that I will consider a plus.

So, GB idea tossed out or is this a fumble from the start...???

I haven't even given you guys a price yet and you're already asking for a discount?

I can probably setup a group buy if you guys are interested. Like I told Kevin in an email, I try to be super fair about these kits. When I get a discount on materials, I pass that savings on to you guys.

The prices for the G35/350Z are a good starting point for you guys to look at, but don't think your kits will be priced the same...

I honestly won't be able to put up pricing until I get some testing in on these. I'm glad you are all interested though, because it means I won't be spinning my wheels for nothing.

This is really funny, because the G-series guys all whine about turning VDC off. It's our "fun kill/worn rear brakes" button lol.

Stillen is not making a kit. I have talked to Josh about it already. Its on the FAR back burner, if anything at all. Which is why I am investing in Nate's' kit.

Blake is supposed to be back tomorrow. I was also supposed to do some measurements and testing on a 2.5L A/C this weekend, but I never heard back from the guy.

I'm hoping by next week. I do priority shipping on everything, so it's usually 1-3 days from payment to your door.

Dammit!

How come I haven't read about 1...not 1... turbo install that stuck to schedule? One guy in the G forum waited 2 or 3 months because of a pipe.

Don't make me call the Doc. We might actually get along in person and oust you!!! lol.

Ok, I need a 2.5L and 3.5L locally for measuring and testing. Who's in?
