When I installed them, startups were noticeably better.
Wiring is the same for our cars.

will provide them for ya, pretty simple to do.

Here are the wires that are done for me. (Black is new, red is my old kit)
Since the first few ones are the ones where you make the most mistakes, I made mine first to get the hang of it first
I made all the cables the same length, saving me some extra time from measuring.
There should be enough length for all 3 connections.
I soldered all the terminals on, to ensure connection and that it wont come loose.


Yours will be finished probably tomorrow and sent out Monday.
The battery Neg terminal hasn't arrived yet.

The wires were semi-decent quality (They didn't send me the exact ones I bought), but the terminals are good quality.

Heres the DIY for you to follow, I don't know where my stock wiring went, so you should be able to figure it out from the pix, pretty simple.

Note:
If you have stock radio, make sure to have radio code before removing any battery cables.
If you have aftermarket radio, you're going to have to reset all EQ and station settings.

1. Remove the two bolts holding down the stock engine to chassis wire, replace the wire, and bolt it back down in place.


2. Remove the stock Neg battery terminal, then remove these two bolts holding the battery Neg to chassis and tranny to chassis cable. (Stock is one piece of wire)
This connection is under the fuse box, you may have to remove the stock/aftermarket air filter to access it.


Optional Step:
Then, you're going to want to sand down the connection points to the metal, to ensure the best connection.



3. Put the new wires in place of the old ones, and bolt up the tranny, and chassis bolts.

4. Attach the Neg terminal back on the battery, and tighten it up.

5. Make sure all your electronics work. Enjoy

Terminal finally showed up today, your set is all ready.
Will be sent out priority mail Monday, probably expect it Wednesday/Thursday.

Nice. Thanks man!

So 2 of the 3 wires are used in the battery terminal / fender-tranny connections? They share the connection point on the fender well?

Kennykid2002

iTrader: (1)

No problem.
It isn't really the fender, but yes, they share the same connection point.
Once you remove the old wiring, you should be able to figure it out.

Or just take a look in your engine bay, should be pretty straight forward.

So Kenny can get his self-gratification....

Desperately need to clean the engine bay...
BTW, my positive terminal lead was so corroded, I had to shear the end off to make the connection. Good thing I got these cables when I did.

Kennykid2002

iTrader: (1)

Lol. Sweet.

I was slightly worried the engine to chassis was the slightest bit short.

Opinions on O.Z. Ultraleggera?

I'm thinking about getting these next summer when my wallet is feeling generous enough...

Leaning towards gunmetal or bronze at the moment, but silver is also nice.

iTrader: (1)

i like the silver

Kennykid2002

iTrader: (1)

I like em all, but im leaning more towards gunmetal or silver

Max91

Yeah silver on that blue would really set it off (looker). Gunmetal would look like a sleeper (low profile).

Not to change the subject...@Kenny, I did my 4k Royal Purple change and I could not believe how clean that engine was. Ready to run this change up to 10k!

Kennykid2002

iTrader: (1)

Nice,
Why did you only run it 4k?
I ran it up to 12k and it was still pretty clean.

OK, i decided I really really really want to get factory HFP SS-7 (Split 7-spoke 16") rims but I haven't the slightest clue where to find them.

I've searched online at accessory dealers, checked craigslist and ebay, and dug though page after page on forums to find some. But to no avail.

I guess we can't all have what we want :P

Do you guys know where I can find a set of these?
I posted in the WTB section hoping someone would be my savior.

Aren't those the Honda Fit stock wheels?

Honda Part No. 42700TK6A91

A few links to get you started
They come in Chrome and silver, the chrome costs twice as much.

God!!! How did you find that so easily?!
I spent hours searching for those yesterday

Those things are kinda pricey, huh...

Kennykid2002

iTrader: (1)

Not too hard once you know which car they come from.

They aren't terribly expensive for OEM rims.
$700 or so for a set...New remember that.

foedoemoehoe

Been reading the thread , its lookin real good and i think the HFP SS-7 would look really good with what you have got going on.

doing some practice with photoshop tuning cars and stuff so i gave yours a shot

krudmuphin

iTrader: (1)

Awesome, i did the same thing earlier using paint, lol
And this was the result.
(I also lowered the body another 1/2" to simulate how low I can go on 16x6.5 rims and different tires, mwahahaha!!)

I'm still for white feathers. Just my opinion.
