Where to buy custom ignition leads?

LordWorm · 10-09-2006, 08:38 PM

Hey all -

My new coil packs are on order and should be here in a week or so, in preparation for microtech and X4 igniter box....

Ordered the coil packs first so I can measure up for the new ignition leads and work out mounting issues..

question is, where should I go to buy custom length leads? just after some garden variety 8mm things... had a bit of a yellow pages trawl but came up with nothing....

why custom length? just go to repco and tell them what you need!

OR you could go along to the ignition lead place on anzac avenue in Kallangur (can't think of the trade name)

Custom length because I wont be using the standard coil packs, or standard mounting location. That and 4 individual coils means i dont need the extra length on 2 of the leads like i would if I kept the standard coil packs....

edit: Kallangur? theres gotta be a closer option

.. haha

QLD Ignition Leads in Kallanguar are your friend!

They fall into that seamingly ever decreasing catergory of people that have been doing the same thing for the last 30 years because they do it well...

Previous receipients to this once underated class of true automotive professionals include Murray Coote of Proflex, Bruce of Leda Suspension and Jim Berry of Brisbane Race Clutches...

QLD Ignition Leads definately deserves its membership and the pristine advantages that come from avoiding overnight drift king style operations, and they also happen to have a permanate business card position on my computer desk, a privelege shared by only two others...

Enough of the rant, just fcuken shop there!

Just gave them a call... They are going to sort me out with a set of 9mm leads, with tubes, new boots and so forth - all i need do is figure out where the new coil packs are going and mount them up

rough quote at $150 which is less than I expected so pretty happy with that.

Thanks Greg and Pete...

Something like that... basically i'm thinking of making a bracket to go over the 2 bolts at the back of the rocker cover that are used for the engine cover, and mount the coil packs on that, right behind each plug..... less than 10cm long ignition leads - and no level of stuffing around with mounting (bracket should be a sinch to make up) - means perminant removal of the engine cover though.....never mind, one of the yanks on MSP will prob pay a small fortune for it seeing as they dont get them...

Very good price, as 8.5mm Magnecor leads are about $110-120aud landed, and they only have two silly leads for the wasted spark system on the BJII...
