Grounding kits outside of SoCal

I noticed that there's a member here who fabricates and install grounding kits in Socal that have excellent reviews but he doesn't ship for DIY installls. I've noticed people wanting an alternative to the most common grounding kits available (we all know who they are). I'm a G37 owner and a vendor on www.myg37.com. I make and sell very reasonably priced grounding kits for the '08 G37 and the '07+G35 sedans. Mine are really simple but effective. They don't have a zillion grounding points and they aren't complicated to install (ratchet, 10mm socket, 10 minutes) but they work as they are intended according to the customers who've purchased and installed them. They're very attractive as well. At least I think so.

I'm gauging interest in how many would be interested a product like mine to determine whether or not it is worthwhile to become a vendor of them here on G35driver as well. You can check out the thread here for more information: http://myg37.com/forums/showthread.php?t=182792

If you'd like an aternative like this please let me know by posting here, via email, or PM me on myG37. Thanks.

Red 8 AWG



Black 8 AWG



Carbon Fiber 8 AWG



Athens Blue 8 AWG



Black in 4 AWG



White in 4 AWG

FINALLY! Someone made a smoked wire!!! I like the "carbon".... if I didnt already have my 2nd set of ground wires I'd be all over the carbon ones (they look smoked in the pic).

I dont know how long this thread will stay though since you're not a vendor.

woah J, your over here too? Good to see ya here. Guys, i ordered my set from him earlier this week cuz of all the rave reviews ppl were given over on myG37. Hope to see this in my mailbox tomorrow, i got the first set of Athens Blue wires that he made!

I will post how i liked mine, or just check that thread i guess that he posted.
He just became a vendor over there, so im sure he doesnt have bad intentions over here. He's trying to get an idea of if there is interest here and wether it would even be worth it for him to become a vendor here. It's like a feeler.

Cant wait for some better shifts in my 5AT. J, you should post up in the 2007 sedan section too since they may suffer from the same DS mode lag and MM lag as us. Plus they are just as hungry for mods right now as we are.

I don't know if I'd call those smoked, they're covered in Tech Flex that is made up of black and clear PET filaments woven together to look kind of like CF. I wasn't really sure how it would look until I got the Tech Flex in to make a set for a member over on myG37 and it looks much better than I tought it would. I don't think the photo does it justice. I'm only posting here to see if anybody on this site is interested in them, not trying to sell here without being a paying vendor. Trust me, I know how IB feels about that. I am a vendor on myg37 but not here yet until I determine if there's sufficient interest to make that investment for both sites.

Thanks for the love man. That is indeed your AB set in the photo. I appreciate you being able to vouch for my integrity here as I'm mostly on myG37. When yours arrive, take and post pictures of your install along with your impressions of how they look and how well they work in the '07 sedan section if you like them.

If there's interest, I'll fab sets for the '03+ Coupe guys too.

they look as close to smoked as anything I've seen... which is good because many of us have been asking for smoked ground wires for years... If in person they look like they do in the pic, I like it.

Who's to say I can't? I'm not a vendor here on G35driver, only over on myg37.com and have no intention of paying even more sponsorship fees here with so little interest shown. I could easily make them but there's no point if there's no market for them. Gives you a good excuse to buy an '09 G37.

I just did a quick view of you thread on G37... do you have any photos of full engine bay with your wires installed?... I briefly read the ground locations - but would like to see how they look (as a whole) with you ground locations... also, I only noticed now that the ones you listed here are all 8 AWG - can you make CF (smoked to me) in 4 AWG?... and have you determined the length and location for G35?

I guess I could have simply asked - can you make CF 4 AWG for a G35 (pre 07 sedan)?

I don't have any shots of my whole engine bay with it installed. It will probably be the weekend before I can take any. It is a very stealthy install in black or CF, other colors are of course more obvious. Mine is black and you won't notice it at all unless you are looking for it.

I can make them for just about any application. I just haven't because nobody's lined up to buy them here. I haven't taken G35 measurements for that reason.

Since I'm not a vendor here, I can't sell using this forum. You can however PM me anything you want, or if you're registered on myg37.com you can buy them there as I'm a sponsoring vendor there.

EDIT: Got a friend to post one of his red 4 AWG set installed.
