RAV-GT4 Forums Junkie Toymods member I supported Toymods Location: Rydalmere, NSW Registered: May 2002	Re: earthing kits Tue, 03 August 2004 14:10 There's been a fair bit of conjecture about this in the RAV4 circles as well... a lot of division about what it does, what it doesn't, benefits and shit... Honestly, make your own. If you've seen what HKS sells these for (sometimes around $400 for their "circle-earth" kit ), save yourself a wad of cash and do just as good as the 'big-guys'. These circle-earth kits run one (or two) leads from the -ve terminal to a hub or a ring of connectors. From there, you got about 16 different points in which you can ground stuff to using their 8-ga cable. The come pre-cut and connected in different lengths, non-make-or-model-specific, which is what you're shelling-out for (as well as the name). I've had more people tell me that there is better responsiveness to be had and brighter lights, clearer radio, easier starting, etc. than those who have knocked the idea. The way that most people go for is called "daisy-chaining" or doing the earths point-to-point. Battery -ve to chassis, batt. -ve to block, block to gearbox, gearbox to throttle body, etc. What you end up with is a maze of wires if you don't zip-tie them securely to something. I'm still indifferent on them, but if I were to do something like this, I'd use no less than 4-ga OFC and gold connectors. [Report message to a moderator]
