Pictures CLpower. we all know you have a digital cam! Seriously though, can you tell the difference? I was thinking about aftermarket plugs and wires, but first, I didn't want to shock myself installing them, and second, I didn't know whick brand.

Hey I could care less how many times you post. What you do with your time is your business, but for the sake of keeping your moderater position, I think you are skating on thin ice if you know what I mean...

BTW I just hit 200 posts woohoo

just for those who don't know (tw1112) there are no plug wires on the Type-S. A coil pack sits on top of each spark plugs, there by eliminating the need. It's called DIS, Distrbutorless Ignition System. No carbs either ; )

Does that mean I'm not a contributing member to this board? I like being an educated consumer, and when I do get my car I will know more than the guy selling it to me. This board is very informative and entertaining at the same time, which is why I spend so much time here.

Oh I wasn't complaining at all. Like I said to each his own. I will be getting the car this summer. I am transitioning to a new job and need to be financially "modest" (cheap) until I get settled in.

You know, I read the post above, and, I swear on my life, I thought the same thing (as in your handle).

This is scary. It's only been a week and I'm already thinking in post handles.
