well the group buy I thought would happen hasn't. We aren't really able to get the prices much lower than the $125 listed on that site since HKS in the US hasn't even started carrying the kit. We'd have to get it from overseas somewhere and after dealing with all of that, the prices wouldn't be very cheap.

If anybody is able to get a Group Buy for an HKS Circle Ground System, I'll be in for 2 sets.

And I'll throw in my personal experience with the EBay kits...
My friend got one and put it on his new Galant. He had the same problem listed above... his radio would shut off and when he turned on his A/C... the entire car stalled. It's a 2002 Galant with under 15,000 miles on it.. the battery looks like the rest of the engine... Perfect and spot free, not crust or anything around the terminals... we took off the $30 Cheap Grounding System and he hasn't had the problem in 2 weeks.

Ok, apparently it would be cheaper for us to do a group buy on these from a company in the states. The Korean price on these is about $245!

Yeah, but we want HKS name.

I found 2 decent deals, so I emailed the store owners.

The ones on Ebay don't look like they uses as good a grade of wire or connectors as the HKS ones. But then again the HKS ones are hideously expensive...
