Personally, i don\'t think they look cool. The only real advantage with them, is they make sure that all your earths are up to tip top condition, which can often fail. If you have a good set of standard earths, there\'s little point in fitting them.

What group was she in pete?:rollin
Not really having earth problems(i dont think), just doing it more as precaution than anything. Not sure im too keen on the looks either, another wire running round the engine bay, although it is a rather nice blue!:Giggle
Thanks guys!

Erm anyways, there\'s a guy who sells them on ebay and does rx7 specific bits and they\'re quite good.

andyroi

Ha ha! good one! Yeah, think thats probably the same one ive bought. does seem quite good, and the mechanic i spoke to tonight thought it was a decent enough idea

kit was a good idea on my car to reinforce the earth points but if the looms look ok then there seems little point to do this.

Can do it very cheaply if you DIY it. I bought 5 metres of 8awg cable for about £7.50 and a henley block (earth block that supplements a fuse baord in a house). I didnt pay for this as my dads an electrician but guess these would be about a fiver or less.

Rixio, why does it say your a mod? youve kept that one quiet!:Thumbsup! you got your car sorted yet?
Bought a kit off ebay, cost about £48 roughly.instructions wernt great, but found a few links on here to help me out!

Rixio

Didnt keep it quiet! Just you aint around enough to notice! Engines down at Carl\'s should be ready end of next month hopefully :o

andyroi
