was just on summit's web site, is there a difference between series 1 & series2 & 3 (like a lot of stuff). found MSD 8241 for $72.95 and also a ACCEL 140018 for $63.95, The ACCEL one has 2 different 1 for early and 1 for late (gathering mine would be early)

I have dealt with them, the price is incorrect on the web but because of the good service I bought them anyway.

From memory all up it was well under 400 for two coil packs and two sets of four msd ignition leads, couriered to my door. I'd rather pay a bit more to an Aussie business if the difference isn't too much.

As an edit to the above post, the only issue I have now is that the leads are too thick to fit into those standard clips that keep them all nicely tucked away. The red leads and the new coils do make the car so much more responsive, nice and clean acceleration, well worth the $$$ IMO

They were actually in Sydney not Perth. I bought mine at rocketindustries.com.au. after Kristo provided the fruits of his research. $280 for the pair delivered the next day after I ordered them over the phone.

Hope that helps

Give Michael at ICE a call, don't bother emailing him. He is great to talk to and will be glad to help you out.

Price I was charged was $116.37 each, but that was without GST. $128 with GST and another $25 for postage (they are quite heavy).

I think for next day delivery, this is a top price and is a sale within Aus.

I got a pair of "Standard Motor Products" coil packs from www.rockauto.com about 8 months ago for $160Aus delivered to the door.
I just checked again now and with the current good exchange rate they are $140Aus delivered to Sydney.
No problem with the performance of them so far.
