Hit 200 NA it broke once, Hit 213 it broke again,
Hitting 300 NA is further away than I thought.
thanks. i got the xact wires, but id rather have stock if i cant get anything better.
im still looking around for an 8 or 8.5mm wire instead of 7 like i have though. any suggestions?
the fuel filter confuses me though. i could have sworn that the one i have is much smaller than the one they tried to sell me. the one they tried to sell me has the same part number you listed, but is as big as my hand. i thought they were much smaller than that....

the filter is a little larger not much, you are looking @ the 1 by the fuel tank correct ?
For the trans filter just make sure 1 get 1 for a 4 or 3 speed which ever 1 you have. The advances around here only carry the 3 speed 1 instock, I had to go pepboys and pay a few extra dollors for my wifes 2.2 trans filter and gasket. Just get Dexron mercron 3 or higher will be fine for the fluid.
as for the brake fluid, since you will not be able to get every little drop out just get the DOT3 the manual specifies, no need for the senthetic.
Also you can buy some Accell wires, and apc wires that fit your car. Just look them up on www.partsamerica.com you can buy them in store or online, you can even purchase them on-line and do a store pickup if they have them instock !!

other than possibly getting a little more reliable spark, will aftermarket wires do much else for me? cause if not, id rather save the 30$ and get stock acdelcos
i have a 5spd manual. is that a different filter?

opps didn't check your registry before I replied .. you have no filter for a 5 speed.
I am not sure about this but I believe the GETREG still uses ATF=Automatic transmission fluid (Check your manual). Unlike the other manuals that use say a 75w90 or GM's great Syncromech (its nick name is expensive crap)
The plug wires can help you get a little boost but not much with out some other compnents helping to use that higher amount of power-spark.

it is a better fluid in a since, but it is advisable to to mix the 2, since you will not be able to garrenty that all the old fluid is out I would just stick with the regular DOT 3.

brother says his shop uses dot4 brake fluid, so i might just do that, unless you advise not to
