I have a healthy distrust of ANY plug wires which don't either come 
from the dealer or from a very sharp aftermarket expert.  Most of the 
wires available in discount stores are junk....that's one item I will 
NEVER buy from a discount outlet.  Even ones which act good initially
often go bad inside a few months.

On the Datsun Z-car list I also frequent, a parts expert I trust says
there is a brand of wires called Jacobs which are good stuff.
