i was looking at a grounding kit....


does anyone know anything about these or have one in their car?

and does anyone who has it have any preference on which one to get?

I made my own kit, but you could find it on ebay, Buddy Club has good review

If you could see a wiring diagram of our vehicle, you'd already see plenty of grounds used throughout the electrical systems. Adding thicker wire to existing points or making new holes is pretty much pointless.

Now, there are vehicles I would suggest doing this one...but I somehow doubt you are competing in DB drags or have anything other than a stock motor/stock electrical system in your 2IS.

I have one on my car. I just got it for looks. Don't think it does very much. I also have a big audio system and have the big 3 wire upgrade.

I haven't heard grounding kits being used since my G35 days, as they could apparently make the AT transmission shift smoother.

That said, haven't seen much of that around on ISx50s.

I run a pretty hefty audio system and have a 4ga ground run from the battery to the strut mount (in addition to the factory ground). I also have all three of my amps grounded to sanded and bolted frame positions in the rear. No such thing as too many grounds in my opinion. I have seen the ground kits online but you can honestly do the same thing yourself by going to your local car audio shop and asking them to cut, crimp and solder connections for you in the desired lengths for much less.

THANKS SO MUCH Guys!!!! Put in a lot of work and some $$$$

I did the same also with my 2000W stereo system. It's a good idea.

Temporary status just to get my car back on the road....



@Sfffd what kind of alternator are you running.. I need to get a new serpentine belt to run my new one efficiently.

@Mia Lex looking good, I'm running the stock alternator still. Just changed all the grounds and the big 3
