was just on summit's web site, is there a difference between series 1 & series2 & 3 (like a lot of stuff). found MSD 8241 for $72.95 and also a ACCEL 140018 for $63.95, The ACCEL one has 2 different 1 for early and 1 for late (gathering mine would be early)

pm kristo re:
"Well found them in Perth for $111 plus postage, so I think I'm gonna go that way.. Surely postage from Perth is only 20-30 bucks..!!"

From memory all up it was well under 400 for two coil packs and two sets of four msd ignition leads, couriered to my door. I'd rather pay a bit more to an Aussie business if the difference isn't too much.

As an edit to the above post, the only issue I have now is that the leads are too thick to fit into those standard clips that keep them all nicely tucked away. The red leads and the new coils do make the car so much more responsive, nice and clean acceleration, well worth the $$$ IMO

I got a pair of "Standard Motor Products" coil packs from www.rockauto.com about 8 months ago for $160Aus delivered to the door.
I just checked again now and with the current good exchange rate they are $140Aus delivered to Sydney. No problem with the performance of them so far. |
