Just got Black Betty's Grounding Wires in the mail!
 

Hey guys, I just received Black Betty's (from my G37) grounding wires. I can't wait to install them in a bit.

First Impressions of them, extremely high quality, I got the 4awg set with a carbon fiber finish. Black Betty was really patient with me, answering all the questions i had about the wires before i got them. I'll Put up pics after I have it installed and i'll tell you how it's like.

Edit:

Okay So here is my Review of the wires. Firstly I would like to say Black better was extremely helpful and answered all my questions before I went ahead of the purchase. Once the payment was confirmed I received the wires 3 days afterwards.

When I received the package there where 3 wires and 5 zip ties. The wires seems to be very high in quality and very solid to the touch. The install can be found here:

Once I got the wires in (BTW extremely easy to install, took around 15 mins) I turned the car on an took it for a drive, I can instantly tell that the throttle response is much better, the car doesn't feel as draggy. The shifts seem to be smoother in d and in manual mode during spirited driving shifting is much faster. Just shifting crawling through traffic or at low speeds the shift speed doesn't seem to be much of a difference (Possibly because the car is trying to make the rider smoother).

Another thing to note, the bose system seems to sound better too. This is all I can think of now, plus i want to go drive my car :driving: :BOUNCE:

please post pics of the grounding points while you install, if you can.. thanks

you can see the gold mounting points and black cables on the left and right strut tower in this pic. i didn't get any better ones but that's what I have. on the left side, one cable goes to the neg. battery terminal and the other goes to the engine block, then on the other side, one goes to another part of the block and a point on something electrical... can't remember now... :o

sorry, I'm a noob. What does this actually do?

Depends on who you ask :D

It's supposed to help in response times

okay Updated with review, pics soon!

another Noob question...what is that bar & what does it do?

It's a strut tower brace that is meant to stiffen things up with the front suspension.

in my experience, after a few days, the shifts tighten up just a little. shifts did seem smoother upon installation but response time and shift time was reduced after those few days, most noticeable with the before/after using the paddles.

hey scott, how is that strut bar holding up? still enjoying it?

yea, it's working great. the bar is maybe 1/8th inch too high and it's every so slightly rubbing against the insulation and making little scuff marks, but nothing crazy and i love it.

where are your updated pics csquared!? hehe

FYI, I had 2 local volunteers let me poke around under their hoods today - an '04 Coupe and an '05 Sedan. You know what this means right? :D

Stay tuned (pun intended) G35 guys!

And thanks for the review and kind words Csquared! I'll be looking for your order for the throttle body upgrade soon. ;)

Is the grounding kit recommended for the 35's, or only the 37's?

Both! I Installed my BB Grnding Kit last week! It's a great Investment! To me I have a 6MT, and throttle response is a little better, don't really feel the slight delay anymore when you are say just cruzing, to going from that to Full throttle is better! and car just seems to rev smoother through out the pwerband! My car hits redline like crazy now! Almost hit the limiter one night testing it out! LOL. was'nt prepared for it to rev up so fast. HAHA. :biggthumpup: to BB Kits!
