I took this photo about 15 years ago at one of Mid-America's Funfest weekends and have always wondered what kind of plug wires were on this ZR-1. Does anyone recognize these? Each wire seems to be individually grounded to a bolt on cam cover. I've never seen them on another car and was just curious. Thanks in advance!

Cool, thanks for the info. This is the only car I've ever seen them on. Wonder why they stopped making them?

I remember "Nology" spark plug wires.

Great gimmicky scam that deserved bankruptcy.

They are solid core wires. I recall that several sets were installed in a hotel parking lot at a BG Gathering in about 2005. Non-resistor BRU sparkplugs were also installed. The combination caused two problems; radio noise and a malfunction of the HVAC button panel, where the functions and temperature setting would change by themselves. It's interesting to note that the wires are about 10 inches away from the radio and HVAC panel on the other side of a plastic wall.

Three of the people that paid good money to have them installed wound up visiting me to pay more money to have them removed. The moral of the story, buyer beware.
