VQRacer,
Do you know what length of wire you need instead if you choose to use the copper grounding point as mentioned by someone instead of where you decided to attach the wire? Thanks.

ok, well since I havent seen anyone else ask it I will.
any comments on the possibilities of that exhaust O2 sensor ground?
and if I understood it right, the ground is really just useful since it is coupled with wires. helping them keep a steady current and sheild it from interference.
is that about right?

ok... I read it again, so the engine just produces less noice from better grounding, which makes the signals to the ECU cleaner. I think...
but still, any plant to toss the Z on a lift, and soder a cable to the exhaust near the Air sensor and then run it to the frame somewhere near there? that would accomplish the task right?

see I must still be confused, cant you just run the wire to any part of the frame and use that as ground? or does it have to go to the engine compartment?
or do you mean just running from the exhaust to the frame is too long? not sure where the O2 sensor is positioned in relation to the frame.
