Nismo Grounding Wires...Genuine?
I notice people talking about Nismo grounding wires on occasion. Does Nismo really make grounding wires or are these ebay grouding wires with a nismo sticker on them?

Anybody have a PDF of the installation guide for the "nismo" grounding kit install? I'd like to know what I'm getting into before installing.

joke or not, does anybody have a scanned copy of the instructions that came with the nismo kit? The only thing I've been able to find are the instructions from another website (tree fiddy)z-tech.com where the have a tutorial on "5 point max grounding" install.
How similar?

oh, and Lowes does NOT sell the quality of terminals and wire you will find in grounding wires. most ring terminals at home improvement stores are small gauge and tin plated (or some other low conductive metal/alloy) just to give you an idea.....copper, silver, and gold are all 100x more conductive than other metals.
