Hey man,

You don't need any specific wiring diagram. Just ground out all the major stuff and u will be fine.

Well...that's pretty much what I've done so far. I am just not such a good mechanic and still can't locate ground points on my alternator and transmission.

The daizen kit only has 2 wires tha attach to the engine. The rest of them go in the engine bay and kick panel and those look exactlly like the GS400/430. Want to look at them and see what you think??

Sure, I would like to see what's on your diagram. I think I found almost all the points, just can't locate one on the alternator and not sure if the one I found on transmission is the right one.

Here are the instruction for the Daizen grouding kit 1998-2005 GS40/430

Here are the lenths of the wires-
I don't kow the gauge of the wires but #2 & #8 are smaller than the rest. Maybe 4ga. & 6ga.
#2 & #8 are 6mm and the rest are 9mm.

I think the palcement of #2 & #3 should be switched from on the instructions.

#1- 29 1/2"
#2 - 47 1/2"
#3 - 28"
#4 - 62"
#5 - 10"
#6 - 25 1/2"
#7 - 20"
#8 - 34 1/2"

You can see largerpic's in my gallery
