What gauge wire is recommended from the starter to fuse box? Also, where do most of you run the wire through the floor or firewall to get to the starter?

I used a 12-gauge wire that they sell from a stereo shop. the red ones they use for amps.

Cool, Thanks Mel, now I'm just looking at ideas on where to pass the wire through the floor. I have read of a few people cutting their shifter boots and passing it there, any other methods out there?

I dont like the idea of runing it thru the shifter section.

Run the battery cable from the passenger side to bin to the driver side, under the carpet then I used a drilled a hole thru the driver side firewall (using a with a grommet of course). Or once you can run the cable also thru the speedo cable hole.

I have a super dooper large crimper (as big as bolt cutter) for cable ends. You can borrow it if you would like.

Cool man, I may give you a call this weekend to borrow it depending on what kind of connectors I use. Also, I was thinking of running 0 gauge wire from the battery to the starter just because it seems like that's what most of the connectors out there are for even though it's probably overkill. I found a pretty good write up for a 3rd gen here:
