i think i mentioned b4 in one of your threads,plug cables can wait if your engine is still close to stock....better use the money for other mods.

No difference at all. Might get aeroplane sound in ur sound system. If you wanna get performance, dont bother with cheap mods. I learnt the hard way.

Good sparkies, bad sparkies..
All it does is ignite the air/fuel mixture only.. Performance wise, on a stock engine there will be no diffrence..

Nope, unless ur car is carburetted like mine. It fcked up the air fuel mixture then my idling went gila haha :rofl:

If youve got minor mods on your engine it should help.

On a stock engine cannot feel the difference...

hehe im also learning mah! Still considered noob also.. If not, sure my car wont be standard already.. But i like it this way.. Stock, not much prob..
Btw darren, ur car got EFI, mine carbie only.. Somehow this statement makes me feel old.. Huhu..
Back to topic, in my opinion, no use using 'sports' spark plug cables unless the plugs itself is a normal one.. See the plugs, how it sparks.. Some plugs have a wide spark, better combustion.. Im using bosch super4 also, satisfied with it so far..

My Galant VR4 steering rack produce tak tak tak sound when drive slow at uneven surface. Making corner also the sound come. Foremen checked and found the steering rack problem. No leak but loose and tak tak when shaking.

Could Proton perdana SEI steering rack be use for VR4?.

The drive shaft Perdana SEI can be used other than Evo 3 driveshaft for Galant VR4.
