Excuse this noob question but all I came up with when searching was just to buy OEM 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. What motor, or what car, should I be looking up to order them? 240sx? 200sx?

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

If you stop by a autozone they have a rack with wires that you can match up. i dont think there is any set that is true fit but you can try saturns, kia, hyundai 4 cylinders

Nah, I want some OEM wires. Just need to know from what car I need to order them for since it asks on the nissan parts sites.

LS1 coilpacks... hmmm... Chevy wiring???
am I missing something?
got pics of the actual wires in question?

for nissan wires, you're probably better off
sourcing them from a junked car
go to a JY and dig
Nissan models of the same generation usually share connectors

Yea man what I did for my LS2 coil packs is buy a universal wire set and then the LSX style plug ends. Use the shortest ones in the set of 8 and call it a day. You wont find a single off the shelf wire that will be exact. Gots to go DIY on this one. And plan on investing in a wire crimper.

I have LS1 coils because I'm running a Haltech standalone.

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

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!

If you run stock VE wires, the fitment won't fit right because the distributor is at the opposite side of the LS1 coil packs (back of the engine).

Seems like SR20DE uses same wires as SR20VE

You need to search... not harder, but just need to start.
