Spark Plug Wires

I am trying to create my own history on my 1984 GSL. I have changed the oil, put in a K&N air filter, and changed the spark plugs, so far. I intend on having the rad flushed and coolent replaced.

The car is stock. I am also going to replace the distributer cap and rotor, I want to replace the spark plug wires as well.

My question is what do people run for spark plug wires

Thanks again guys

Matt

I run the NGK wires. You can't go wrong with NGK.

I just bought a set of Accel Thunder series 8mm core today from Canadian Tire.

They were $50, and I noticed a difference in performance!

I hear most people say NGK. I have a set of those cheap accel 8mm wires that you can crimp yourself. They are for V8s so there is plenty of wire for around $40 bucks. Enough for 2 sets of wires at least.

They work fine, but as soon as I need to get new ones, I'm getting NGK.

The Accel wires I got were specifically for the RX-7, I didn't have to crimp them!?!?!?
