WANT MY ENGINE TO LOOK LIKE THIS
 
Man id like to have my engine looking like this. All chrome, clean, and shiny and looks straight out racing style. anyone know where i can get cables like that, instead of black, i would want them blue. see how this mofo has red and blue wires. i hope u guys know what im talking about. Blue wiring. Im guessing auto zone or pep boys right? What are these wires called?? I dont think they had HP but i just want them blue for looks.

You do know that there is going to be a Fast & Furious III?
I recall a casting call for RHD cars.
Guess the next hot mod will be RHD conversions?

you can get blue magnecor spark plug wires ... and get this ... they're actually GOOD wires! not just for looks! OMG!

do i search for magnecor on the forum. i know i posted a link to a company that sells them for a good price. WAY cheaper than stock or stock-style replacements (something like $80 vs $160).

a clear timing chain cover ... that's neato. he should add some lights to one of the chain links on the timing chain so it lights up when it's goin' round too ...

I only see them in red, do they come in blue?? What exactly does these wires do?? Since they called racing. Does it give you like 1 horse power, lol

Not only is there going to be a F&F3, but they are going to ruin yet another area of racing: drifting. That's the basis for the new movie, so expect alot of riced out S13s, S14s, and Skylines :(

lkwd318ti 12-24-2005 08:38 PM

F&F3 will probably kill the whole drifting scene.
With super riced out cars...

they transmit the charge from the coil to the plugs just like any other wire. they produce as little or less EMI as other cables but cost half as much. btw, you can't see a huge amount of the plug wires on the 4-cyl ... oh well! they give you your original HP back ... so if your stock wires are a little sub-standard, they'll bring 'em back up. wires aren't exactly a big mod, lol. besides, you wanted 'em blue for the "looks" so what's the biggie?

yeah ... i saw the JayZ engine ... you should get everything chromed, even the plug wires ... that'd be sweet. just go to a shop and say, "chrome it all beotches!" ... hell, chrome the whole car, why restrict it to the engine compartment? w00t!
