does anyone have the type r 10.2 mm plug wires? what do you think of them any good? because i was thinking of running msd wires, any comments would help

 

<-- 72K miles and stock spark plug wires and no problems

 

We have 10.4mm wire, if you're really into the beefy wire look. Don't let anybody fool you into thinking they make for a better spark, though :-).



Cheers,

 

whats the point of having plug wires like that?

stock works fine for me and my car isnt exactly stock.

 

NGK Blues.. work fine

 

I have a set of Magnecor from my previous 97R.
Did absolutely nothing. Keeping my 00R stock.

 

I think that if there was a big "Plug Wire Dyno Test" that there would be almost no variation, and that the stock ones would perform quite well amongst the competition.

 

There was an article about this on vtec.net a couple of years ago. They found that the OEM plug wires performed just as good (even better in some cases) than aftermarket wires.

 

Stick with OEM or NGK blue

 

OEM wires

 

Last month I went and bought NKG blue performance wires for 60 bucks and didnt notice a thing except for my gas mileage got worse. Should of stuck to OEM

 

thanks for all of the feedback guys, someone told me that the difference is like the voltage or something like that, the msd wires operated at 50 ohms or something like that and the bosch ones were at 5,000, so supposedly the msd are better

I feel the same way, I removed them because I knew they really weren't doing much after like 3000 miles. Which reminds me, if anyone wants a set of Magnecor 8.5mm wires, pm me with an offer

 

ive used stock r wires in my car after magnacore wires started jumping off the distributor lead and never looked back the car ran just as hard if not harder than the magnacores
just stick with the stock wires
or the ngk blues, which i havent personally tried yet but heard good things about
dont waste your money on nology hot wires ive seen then not give any increase in power

 

Ebay'd my Magnecore's long ago...and went back to stock.

I've run MSD's for a while, but I recommend stock wires all the way.

 

I have the MSD wires only because I used to have an MSD box. But the wires always vibrated off the cap. Not so much anymore with the stock cap. I know OPie has problems with the wires loosening up too. NGK next

 

stick with stock

 

aftermarket plugs are for the icy hot stunnas OEM or ngk blues for that jdm bling
