Hey guys. 

I just like to post my experience with the grounding wire kit I got installed a few weeks ago. 

It wasn't designed for my car it was just a HKS one I found on ebay that I got my mechanic to install last service. 

I had one on my V35 which helped with improving my auto change gears. 

I wasn't having problems with gears in the V36 but I was having trouble with the lag in my throttle so I ordered the kit and also a A'PEXi smart accel controller to help with the throttle. 

In the end I didn't need to install the controller because the Grounding wires are great! It has reduced the lag heaps and made driving the car more pleasurable. Highly recommend if anyone is having any lag issues in the throttle. Might be just what you need. 

PS. I have a A'PEXi smart accel controller for sale.

hey @V35_Paul

Are you able to post a link to the one you bought? :)

The one i got is gone but this is the same

Just a quick question, did you clean up all the factory grounds first to give a good comparison?  I haven't known anyone who has installed grounding kits on the skyline specifically, but from prior experience on other cars, results have varied from 'awesome improvement' through to 'no noticeable change' depending how good the factory ground connections are, even on the same model vehicle.

    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
    • Hmm not really, I'd say its race car life or modified car life when you make 3 or 4 times the power Nissan designed the car for lol. 
    • I'll let others with more breakage chime in, but I can't think of anyone who had a problem with the standard centre plate before they had a problem with the standard gears - the plate generally just gets replaced for safety when the gearset is upgraded. As for the gearsets, its not like they are OK at 600Nm and break at 601. Their longevity is a combination of how much torque you are making and how gentle you are on shifts (or not).
