    Spark Plug Wire colors?

    I am curious to what colors they have out there for the E30s?

    I know they have Black and Blue but whatelse?

    I currently have blue under my hood.

        You can buy custom kits with a roll of ignition wire and ends. Then all you do is cut them to length and crimp on the ends with a pair of pliars. That way you can have what ever color you want.

          I think red looks the best on any engine.

            thats probuly your best bet, i'd try to use the wires from a company called
            "Taylor Wires"
            i've heard really good things abotu them and they seem to be the best ones out there.

            good luck.

              Spaz does Taylor have a website?

              Nitro, where can you get these kits? Can they be ordered online?

              My personal choice would be red. It does look the best.

                I have blue, because it looks good on silver, but I wish I got red, because I am getting a red Sparco bar I might just get the black IE bar instead.

                      I want to get red wires pretty soon. I'm skeptical on the DIY wires, don't forget the pulse sensor.. also the aftermarket ones come with a nice wire loom to keep them neat and tidy. I dunno. I think it's worth it to buy a set that's made for your car.

                          you can alwasy reuse your old pulse sensor, i sent taylor wires an email regarding bmw's i hope to hear back from them soon.
                          and you can also reuse your old loom they come apart very easily.

                            Word.

                            How about some UV reactive ones?

                            Oh and wave, you could just paint the sparco bar black?

                            I bombed Korea every night.

                              The make at home kits are available from summit racing and other big motorhead mailorder houses. You can use accel wires or just about any other manufacter, The ends are the important area to do properly. Bad crimping = bad misfire
