skittlesRgood Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 i just put the wire in the hole lol. i can usually get all of it in pretty easily. sometimes one or 2 strands come out. just use your fingers to squeeze it all together. If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

EclipseChris Posted August 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 damn I didnt think of that man. I usually take a piece electrical tape and wrap it around the bottom, right above the cut line. then slip the terminal on and take off the tape....but its more surface area and this would work much better Thanks! that great man, i thought that shit only bothered me ill have to use that next time, thanks for the idea Haha yeah man the first terminal i did had one strand out and it killed me i just put the wire in the hole lol. i can usually get all of it in pretty easily. sometimes one or 2 strands come out. just use your fingers to squeeze it all together. Doing this is a lil more time consuming but so easy its a joke, its not like you gatta go outta your way for materials ya know? i resolve to be a nicer moderator. Tercel build R.I.P.

moetpoppin Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 good man! i have always been bugged by this but then end up crimping wires rather than soldering so some strands make their was out during that process too so it stops bothering me soon as I'm done. Gonna do this when I step up to some bigger wire tho. When I get my car back I will for sure try this when I upgrade my 4 gauge to 1/0 keep it up man gonna take a look over at the mitsu later today. anything good?

chapo123 Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 great post. def needs to be stickied Steve I don't know why but everytime I see your new paint I want a Dr. Pepper...... is this normal? heres an analogy for you. running a high power stereo without a fuse is like having unprotected sex with that hot chick at the bar with the sketchy sexual history. Sure you may be fine and nothing happens but that one time something does happen you're fucked. i dont want woofer broke like bass sound clip clip and voice coil overheat 2 sa12s, saz1500 build log http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/91183-chapo123s-sundown-build-log/page__gopid__1250604entry1250604 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
