1fz leads

Post by oldmate »

I was planning on buying some new plugs and leads today. I went to supercrap and they didn't have any leads, and didn't even have part numbers for them. So I went to bursons who had bosch leads at 380 bucks. I was think wtf that's expensive. It only cost 40 bucks to do my falcon, from bursons.

I also remember hearing toyota leads are better anyway. according to the only thread on outers i could find on the subject, some old mate paid 250 bucks. That sounds like toyota pricing to me.

so seriously wtf is with 380 bucks? are these made from the purest titanium on a distant planet or somethign?

I'd probably say get the toyota. Think retail is $350+. I think i paid $270 which was meant to be trade! Before that i had bosch which were a lot cheaper (used mates trade account) cant remember what they cost. But snapped in half when trying to remove them from the plugs after only 10,000ks (to check valve clearence). One left a bit a rubber on the plug which made it hard to remove the plug (socket wouldn't fit over). Any way toyota one seem much better quality. you don't want to be chainging leads everytime you do plugs or valve checks
