So its safe to say the previous owner to my 05 z33 was kinda careless and dumb. And i was young and dumb for buying it. But now i am in too deep with the car and plan on never ever selling it so i need to fix all issues with it. This might be a tough one which is why i need guidance. It seems like the PO tried to convert the battery to a side post style for some reason, and in the process he just cut the 2 wires/clips that clip into an OEM fusible link on the positive terminal. Will include pic to show what im talking about—


Those 2 cables are the ones im talking about. It seems like PO just cut them off and rolled the wires together so they can still make a connection to the battery

—though i have no pictures of my own car since its at the body shop getting painted. Right now i have a generic auto store terminal on there and every couple of months the cables get a little loose and cause the car to not start so i have to go in there and re tighten. Been wanting to fix this issue for a while but never really knew where to start so i figured asking you guys. Thanks in advance!

 

Really need to see photos of the damage. But I would de-pin the plugs, and re-crimp the connectors if you have enough slack to work with (Note: This would require finding matching plug pins from an online harness parts shop and buying a compatible crimper). Basically put the wiring back to stock if at all possible, the fusible link is there for a good reason!

If you can't repair the existing wiring, I recommend trying to source complete replacements from a salvage yard. Usually these are intact.

You can buy this and try to repin them as Icer mentioned.

Yes that is exactly what I bought. Do you think i can also get away with crimping them with butt-connectors? If i do have to repin i might have to take it to someone to do it for me but if i can crimp them i might be able to do it myself

 

If you are going to crimp them yourself, make sure you use some good quality connectors like this. Do not solder them. Repining them would be your best bet but if you use quality connectors and not those autozone crappy connectors you should be good.

 

Alrighty will do! First im going to try and see if anyone can repin it for me without charging an arm and a leg and if not then ill just use these
