So which end are you asking about? The one that plugs into the positive terminal of your battery, or the one that goes to your starter?

No its not the wire to the starter. that wire requires a 12mm nut, this wire looks like a
10mm bolt goes to it? originaly i had it bolted onto the thermostat housing but it doesnt seem right.

This is where i had it. going from positive battery terminal to here. LOOK

That would be my guess. Have you looked at your starter? Do you see anything missing there?

This must be a joke.

That is the engine ground. If you put it there, you will ground out your battery.

Look at your starter. How many wires are connected to it?

One wire is bolted down to the starter and another is plugged into it. so this wire is just a regular ground wire?

no. You shouldn't have any positive wires from the battery to the engine block ground (thermostat).

Who unhooked that cable anyway? Where was it connected before?

You've done swaps before, and you seriously connected a wire from the positive terminal of your battery to a ground? C'mon guy...

Anyway, give us some history here. . .

Where did that wire come from?
Is this a swap that you're trying to do?
If it's your car, and you haven't done a swap, then the wire must have come from sonewhere! Did the wire magically appear? What are you trying to do here?

Wow, you are all a bunch of idiots.... I guess none of you have ABS in your integras.... That is a power wire that runs to the ABS fuse box located next to your ABS pump.

Everyone is ragging on the guy and none of you even know where the wire goes.

dude, my 14 year old kid brother knows better than to ground a positive battery lead. That has nothing to do with knowledge of cars, it's just plain old common sense. LOL

I'm glad you found your fix though.

Welcome to HT
everyone has to start learning somewhere... i have been working on honda/acuras for 12 years, had 7+ ef hatches with swaps, crx's, da's, eg's... been here since 2003 and on clubs si since 2000... I still learn new things all the time.

Good Luck with your car, hope that everything goes well with your first swap.

:thumbsup:
