Hey everyone,

I was wondering where I can get the ST205 spark plug cables... I'm having an arching problem with mine (its fine for now) and I'd like to get new ones. I already replaced the distributor cap, so I'm pretty its not that.

so can I buy them some where locally? (in my city or in America) or should I look to other websites for them?

Thanks,
Kevin

WWW.PARTZNET.COM
http://www.fensport.co.uk/Parts/Model_19/Category_1/
also did a search on
NGK website the part number RC-TX69
BOSCH website the part number B4645i

So they do make them, however I'm not too sure if the local shops over there stock these, as the GT-Four wasn't for sale there.

Are you sure its the leads? have you check them over or put a ohmmeter on them?
If they are over the maximum resistance (25KΩ per cord) then you need to replace them

Im using the NGK ones, and while they are great leads and I will be getting a set for my Chaser too, I wouldnt be upset about using OE leads. They are certinally not a weak point.

Thanks guys,

well I'm not sure exactly what it is... I DO know I've had a problem with arching twice now and have been shocked by putting my hand near the distro each time... (oddly enough... fixed the problem this last time.)

Ill look into those part numbers, thanks,
Kevin

Just to clarify my experience with plug leads, I've used (in order):

Stock
Top Gun
Magnacore
NGK

stock were arking out and no good (but were also 100 000kms old so not great shock...pun intended)
Top Gun were rubbish, they were 8mm leads, and couldnt even hold spark at 15 psi, so they didnt last long
Magnacore were fine for a long while untill I was making some decent snort and running 20 psi, then they too started to break down.
NGK have been fine since installing around 50 000kms ago and I havn't looked back.


I only bought the NGK ones (over stock or TRD for example) because they came up too cheap to refuse.
