Running 800w RMS on stock alternator. No problems with idle at all. I do have lights dim some if I turn it up a lot.

I ran my own RCAs from the headunit, so no need to use a LOC or tap into the bose harness.

Investing in a capacitor is investing in bunk. They're worthless for anything but looking cool. The actual available power from one is negligible, and they add a complication to your wiring and audio system, and complications are always bad. Get a higher capacity alternator and battery and do the "Big 3" upgrade, but don't get a cap.

This should help with the wire colors at the amp.

Just find the av.pdf for your car here: http://psedog.com/cars/fsm/g35/
Just look at the colors on the wiring diagram.

I have experience removing the bose amp and tapping it with a sledgehammer

Nice, do you have a an automatic or a 6mt? im getting an auto, really wish i could have gotten a 6mt but they were all 3-5gs more. plus this g has been taken care of and looks very classy, i actually could have gotten a 6mt for around the same price, but whoever had it before put lambo doors, graphics, underglow, and cheap rims on it and it looked like ****. didnt do anything to the engine either, you could tell he drove the damn thing into the ground

I already upgraded the alternator wire, would installing a grounding kit take care of the other 2 "Big 3" steps?

you dont need a grounding kit. get some 1/0 wire, and terminals, solder the terminals on and ground your battery to your frame or shock tower, and same with the engine to frame or shock tower. i just got 50 feet of welding wire in yesterday, so know i have all my equipment to start the new build except a battery im about to go buy.
