If anyone knows where I can purchase a Apexi kit, HKS, or something non-generic, please let me know.
I really want the JP kit, but it will take too long and I am not patient.
thanks guys!

BTW I had to put one of the grounds under the car on the tranny. Did you do that?

haha, you can see why i didnt post any because of the quality of the pic.
So you pulled it all the way to the stock tranny ground? I had to put my longest wire to the back of the intake mani since my battery is on the otherside.
I put mine on the chassis, intake manni, & Thermostat housing. I would love to ground one near he 02 sensors but that will require some welding to make a place to tap to.

Grounding points
Ok soI just got this kit today as well...
I have a 2nd Gen like mikal...
mikal........
you stated you grouned it to the 'chassis', where?
intake mani you used the ones on the side underneath the intake runners?
thermostat mount.... that one I can see...
LexAristo....
you used the tranny ground, do you think that ground what will help idle better?
where did you put the other two grounding points?
thanks for the help.

no diff on my car
Maybe I didn't ground it at the good spots, but I don't see a difference...
Idles the same, still runs good though, but nothing noticeable yet....
Grounded at the grounding point on the fender wall near the hood line above the passenger tire... its pretty obvious...
then at the grounding point under the intake headers.... there are two of the them.... the one closer to the firewall...
then the last one..... if you follow the main ground wire coming from the battery goes under the tray, then goes down and attaches to the block.... just before it attaches to the block, it attaches to the frame one more time.... that where I put the last ground...
this is on 2000 GS300
Let me know if you guys think I should move the grounds..
thanks
