"DaTwUnKrAziEpInOy" You are correct. I bought the positive post clamp yesterday, and just used a Lighting Audio 4 AWG wire that had a crimp ring on it, and the Lighting Audio wire was slightly bigger than the OEM wire that was on my car, i have it layin' on the garage floor in 2 pieces. :lol:

"Jakecallun20" Nope all i have is K&N air filter. Thanks for the clean engine bay comment, i will have to take off some the white spray paint on the fuse box later, just only power washed the paint off, and still have some left on there......

"trdkamuri51o" Acutally i stole my dad 1998 Toyota Camry V6 coolant overflow tank. I'll have to find him another 1998 Camry or ES300 coolant overflow tank. I have no idea that the Solara coolant overflow tank would be so crappy and overflow unbelieveable.

"SolaraGuy22" Just go to salvage and pick up a 1998 or earlier Camry V6 coolant overflow tank. I will be doin' that soon for my dad Camry to toss out my coolant overflow tank.

Close up of the new positive post clamp.
And yes that is a Lighting Audio 0 AWG that is faded on my negative post clamp. :D

So what do you guys think.

Yeah i did.
The only thing i kept from the OEM positive wires, are the black and white wires, rubber boot, and the wire loom.

"tito53" I had painted my fusebox white, and then i wrecked my car and it had paint chips all over the fuse box, and so i decided to make it back to black, and power washed most of the white paint off, and still have to get paint thinner or somethin' to take off the old white paint.

"unbalancedwood" You don't have to have a bigger alternator to do teh upgrade, i was thinkin' about upgradin' the OEM 4 AWG to Lighting Audio 4 AWG wires......

"aleki2424" I'll take a picture tommorrow of the OEM post clamp and you'll see the difference, my OEM post clampst were really dirty and ugly.
