grounding points
whats up guys,
well my friend got an rx8 and i help him out with mods. hes got a set (ebay i think) of mazdaspeed clone grounding wires. well the direction are horrible to say the least. theres about 6 grounding points with a round collection plate (this plate is a first for me). they dont even say where u put the collection plate. and the rest of the irections are vague. like all they say is tranny / intake mani / headlight etc etc. i looked in the dark at his engine and i think i found the intake mani ground point. but this is a different world to me.
well my question is, is there anyone who can explain to me where the grounding points are or perhaps an illustration. i tried searching but all i get are threads comparing grounding wires.
thanks
Alex

thats almost identical to what he got. as you can see below the picture of the wires. those are the directions that were included. this isnt a traditional grounding set as i knowit. so im still a bit lost.
i assume the plate goes to the battery. but i dont get why you would want to use the battery as a collection point. theres also nothing going to the chassy. im used to daisy chained grounding with a collection point of about 3 wires. ontop of that i have little idea on the rotary engine configuration in general.
you guys have cyl heads or is the kit just so generalized that they include that for other makes?
