2003 Mazdaspeed NGK spark plug wire set

[Jason94Cobra]

Welllllll I ordered a set of plug wires and then forgot the stupid car had two wires and two COP devices... so when I got the set and there were only two in the box I thought I needed another set and ordered them before taking the engine cover off.

sooooo I have an extra set of brand new NGK wires for the Mazdaspeed Protege and whatever else these TWO wires happen to fit.

I sold my extra set of drilled rotors and pads in this forum as opposed to the normal classifieds because I didn't want to deal with shipping...

so if anyone fairly local to AUSTIN, TX needs a set of these wires let me know and I will be happen to let them go for a little under what I paid with shipping for them...

I haven't even opened the shipping box they came in because I decided to go ahead and change the VCG and plugs before a trip thinking that I would just change two of the wires out before the trip and then install the other two when they came in... so I discovered I didn't need the other set.

say $25 for the set.

I am actually starting to think about selling or trading the whole car too... but that one makes me a little nervous...

 

[Jason94Cobra]

I just realized I still have these... unless Ryan needs them for his car...

There didn't seem to be a lot of options for aftermarkey wires for this engine... These are great for the price, there are two wires in the set. I think the "set" should go ahead and include two new replacement boots/springs for the COP packs too... I didn't realize there were only two actual wires on the car since I didn't open the plastic cover or had forgotten when I ordered them maybe and ordered the second set. I would buy them again for the price... Although if this were a faster car I would probably opt for one of the more expensive pairs of wires...

Yeah I'm not boosted or anything. Just wanna maximize mpg's

I don't think the wires are necessary, these cars seem to do fine with the stock coil pack setup. I still want them though, lol.

 

[jowens727]

I'm pretty sure I need some new Coilpacks. I just don't know which ones to get. Found some for $30. Just don't wanna waste money on crap ya know?

I have had the $26 autozone coils for almost two years and 30k miles with no problems.

Do the coils just give out or do they "get bad and then die"?

 

[hornsfan10609]

It really depends, they can make the car stumble in boost but still run otherwise or they can crap out all together.
