Where are you guys attaching the ground cable? I haven't poked around back there yet to see what the options are. Is there a conveniently located stud in that corner of the car that isn't used for anything?

i bolted mine somewhere around the bumper support or bottom of the trunk. can't remember. but i sanded it down to bare metal and bolted it down securely. its been like a little over a year and no issues. I went with a miata battery as well which fit in the hole in the trunk.

Hi there super new to this forum. I wanted to know if someone could tell me how to get Jim’s 318ti swap manual? Doing a m52 into my 97 318ti 5 speed and though maybe it’d be a good idea as there may be some simple things I may over look.

Thanks guys.
