I need help determining what plug wires I need!
Excuse this noob question but all I came up with when searching was just to buy OEM plug wires.... so I need help figuring out what OEM wires I need.

I bought this car with a hybrid swap, it has a DE block, VE head and LS1 coilpacks. I found 2 of the wires corroded and cracked on the coil pack end so I want to replace them all. I just need to know from what car I need to order them for since it asks on the nissan parts sites, 240sx? 200sx? Does it matter?

Here is a pic with the wires for reference, thanks for any help

Here are some pics of the wires and also some numbers that were on them. I tried nissan parts online search for these numbers but didn't pull anything up. Someone has to know what these are off of.

First set of #'s are off of the spark plug end and the KW #'s are off of the coil end.

18610 T9 - KW49
18610 T8 - KW33
18610 T7 - KW44
18610 T12 - KW70

I would bet they are custom built ... using SR wires and LS1 ends ...?? I dont know of any stock SR wires set that would look anything like that ...

So the guy I bought the car from finally got back to me and said they were cbr 600 wires. I called Honda cycle parts and they couldn't find anything so I don't think that is right.

Lets try this.. I want OEM wires, I can put on the LS1 ends on those, so from what car do I need to order for from Nissan parts that fit this VE head? I can make the coil end work so I just need to know what will fit the spark plug hole correctly.

Much thanks!

You were right! Today I was put in touch with the guy that put the car together and he said that he made them using just the VE plastic plug caps and 8mm wire he had. I sourced some VE plug wires so I'm going to order those and just crimp the LS1 terminals on.

Thanks for the reply
