So my freinds neighbor works at our local nissan dealer, and sometimes he can get a hold of stuff off trade-ins and the like.
This time around he got a hold of a grounding kit off a WRX. And I bought it off him for $25. Saving me $100, and the embarrasment of buying something(relatively expensive for what it is) that mighte not do anything at all.
I put it in, with some modification to the assembly/wires, but it went in well. I drove the Z afterwards, and it felt and sounded ALOT less disgruntled than usual around 5500-6500RPM. Not to mention, it felt nice and torquey, like when you drive on a cold morning, not to mention it was 80 degrees today Anybody got one of em?

It's a common thing to put on these cars. There are so many electronic gadgets on these cars that additional grounding points can make a noticeable difference.

Yes, I have one.....made it myself.....$10.

U suck dude

post up how you think it helped after you install it.

Most people notice a smoother idle and better low end throttle response. I definitely noticed a smoother idle, but not so much the low end throttle response.

lights were brighter.
definitly a little boost.

Placebo affect FTW!

But yeah... <$10 in wires and connectors from RadioShack and the end result will be a smoother idle and [possible] increased throttle response.

whatever dude.

has anyone not done this yet?
With so little investment of time and money, why the hell not do it?

Can you tell me where the negative cable goes from the battery on a 1996 Nissan 300ZX

Welcome to ZDriver!

Please check the DATES on threads before you post. This one is 2.5 years old.

Answer to your question: negative cable goes to GROUND... same on all modern cars.

Yeah... the negative cable is just grounded to the chassis somewhere. Don't recall the stock location, but when I relocated the battery to the hatch, I just used a bolt where the spare tire was to ground the battery.
