Hello all,
I am looking for ground cable kits for our Integra. I should mention I have used the search tool and I have tried google. I did find a ground kit but it was for the G3 Integra.
Any and all help is welcome. I should also mention that yes I know you can make my own however I am not interested in going that route. Is it stupid to be that way? Maybe, maybe not but its how i feel about it. Anyway hope you guys can help me out here.
they got a ton of them on ebay, uber cheap too
blk,
Thx man.
I have a question though. Do you have any experience with any of these kits and if so which are you using?
just go to your hardware store or a shop that do audio system and get 3 foot of ground wires in 2 gauges and buy some connectors for it. You can find copper connectors with allen screw in at home depot. You’re probably looking at $15-25 bucks. Ground is ground right so any good copper/speaker type wires should work just as long they are more solid or anywhere from 2-4 gauges.
Me i basically used 2 gauges 3 ft. 1 for the valve cover to front rad support. 1 for the tranny to chasis
I also purchase 2 gauge battery connector for the starter and the ground to chasis and tranny again Y split. makes no different to me and i am using MSD 8.5 wires
Riccy,
have you noticed any performance difference?
You know how the ground kit claims to give u 3-5hp. Now even if u do get any gains u wont see 1whp. Anyway I do not feel any differences in performance gain. but since I installed the msd 8.5mm wires my mph was able to climb better after 80mph but again that may be just in my head.
I do understand that it can help u get a better starter power, brighter lights or if u have audio system it wouldnt dim out as much or some sort. Really I dont think it makes a difference and its just a waste of money if u buy the real ground kits. Just do what i said if u just want a bigger cleaner ground and power if u havent replaced yours for a long time.
That would make a difference if you have very old corrosion wires buildup and never changed it and have hard time starting the car.
thx man,
What I am really trying to do is find a way to make the interior lights BRIGHTER when the headlights r on. It gets dim inside, but I know its not out of the ordinary because my wifes 93 accord does the exact same thing.
Well u can buy new bulb for it with brighter lumens if thats all u wanted.
Ground kit or custom wont do much as all cars tends to dim a tiny bit if not.
Well if its a brand new car it doesnt but as it age things gets old and wear and things happens and sometimes we just cant get to all of them to fix the dims.
