Hey Guys

Has anyone here installed or knows where i can get install info for grounding kits for my V ????

I have google and youtubed and cant find anything >=[

And for the peeps that have had it installed to your V's, is it a myth or does it improve the auto gear changes???

Thanks for the help in advance =)

It's a complete myth. I have one and it didn't do anything.

you can always try making your own if you can't find what you're after

The forum hosting the thread I linked is where I got the idea to try grounding wires on my car. I've never owned a v35 so cannot comment if it works on these cars but there was a definite lag in shifting on my auto v36 which the grounding wires helped with. Due to this it felt like the transmission delivered the power better through the improved shift response so it had a placebo effect of making the car "feel" faster.

I was skeptical before I tried it, but it definitely made a positive difference to driving my car.

a few things too;

- it won't add anymore kw or hp

- I didn't notice an improvement in my audio system quality

- only makes a difference for improving auto transmission shifts as the manual won't make a difference, because you change gears manually (duh )

It will only help if the stock grounding is corroded or the wires are faulty. If you want quicker auto shifts get a valve body upgrade (shift kit) from Jetwreck and find a local trans specialist to fit it.

Interesting story: A long time ago I ran a heap of cable around my engine & earthed everywhere recommended, & then some. Went for a drive & couldn't pick a difference in shift changes or performance with any aspect of the car.

My wife drove the car a few days later & when she returned she asked what I had done to it because she had noticed gear shifts to be slightly better. Now I did this when you was away & didn't tell her anything about it. It so happens that she always picks up on changes in cars (good or bad) before anyone else I know.

The moral; don't spend more than $10 on some cable & crimp connectors because that's about all it's worth. You probably won't feel a thing if you're like me (or many others on here) & will feel ripped off if you spend too much.

As Scotty said, the real difference is the Transgo shift kit. Worth the money & then some

yeah i think youd get the same effect from just removing the earth strap from the engine, the earth lead from the battery, cleaning all the surfaces, and putting it all back together

i personally find the V35 auto shift changes to be better than the auto in our 2008 porsche boxster...

Hey Guys

Cheers for all the advice.

Nightcrawler: i got the kit already so i guess i might as well try it and let u know but i have just recently done a trans service and its so smooth and response already...so i shall update u with my thoughts =)

Seano: Cheers for that buddy i already had a look at it but im not that great and making out which wires go where as i got a different kit from that, i shall keep searching the net and if i can find anything else i will create a thread for everyone.

Yo-Yo: Cheers for all that info i hope it does make it even more smoother =)

Deep Dish V35: if i cant find anything on the net that will help i shall try your advice.

Once again cheers guys

For the money, even if it gave you 0.5kw power increase (due to less power loss through the gearbox for whatever reason) or smoother shifts/response, then it is worth it - hence why I put mine on

transgo is worth every cent, probably should be one of the very first mod for v35/stagea

Craig/Jetwreck installed mine, loving it so far. Been raining in Sydney haven't got a chance to really test it out at full yet.
