You dont want a grounding kit, you want a fuel return system.
Also don't forget the AAM oil pan spacer.

dave: i plan on custom fabricating a rb26 into my 350 z i already have the motor it is putting out 930 hp but obviously that is not whp. i bought the grounding kit not for power gains but because it can help your alternator and startar last loner grounding kits are actually important if u plan on having a high horsepower car if u dont have one than u probably will notice delayed starts and rough idles if u knew something about cars u would probably no this. i have probably forgot more about cars and motors than u will ever no. by the way this is not the first time i have taken a nice car and completly modified it. ill tell u what tho ill leave this forum and go to a real forum where people actually help each other and no what they are talking about instead of acting like honda kids do and talking mad trash on a forum. to those of u who actually have sense and like helping or need help u can privite message me anytime other wise peace out.

If your knowledge of motors is anywhere near as good as your spelling.... world watch out.


And please post pictures of your 930 bhp rb26 along with a full mod list please

Buahahaha this guys grammar is so poor, he probably spelled his name wrong on the McDonalds application.

How does someones lacking basic writing skills have money for a 930hp motor? They don't.

I guess this guy can teach me about high hp cars and grounding kits!!!

PRICELESS
