Where can I get NGK TR55's PLEASE??!!!???
I have called all over town and no one seems to have the TR55 or know what it is. I refuse to listen to the idiot at Napa who tell me to get the Bosch Platinum 4's because they will last 4 times as long because of the 4 sides. When he said that to me I turned around and walked out. I want either the TR55's or the NGK Iridium ones because thats what every one else uses. Where can I get these plugs???????

Anybody who carries NGK plugs should be able to get them for you. The NGK part number for the TR55 is #3951 and the TR55IX (iridium) is #7164 - maybe they will recognize this instead. If you can't find them locally then several of the sponsors carry them including Thunder Racing: http://www.thunderracing.com/index.c...yid=1082#T1314

I got mine at my local NAPA parts store..which I noticed you mentioned something about NAPA in your post. The sales people at the NAPA here seem to be idiots. I just told them what I wanted..didn't tell them what it was for.

I'm an assistant manager at O'reilly and yes we carry the tr55's in stock. Like someone said above, any parts store that carrys NGK should be able to order them.

$5 bucks apiece? Somebody is making themselves some money under the table!! I got them for $1.19 apiece but that was with my discount. I think they are about $1.50 apiece for regular customers. $5 apiece is crazy.

Down here, any parts store I've been in the last year has NGKs. I usually buy them from Discount Auto Parts, which recently changed names (Duh! can't remember to what).
Be especially carefull you don't ask for replacement plugs -even for NGK- IF- you don't want platinum plugs, 'cause that is what will come up on their computer for replacements.

$1.49 from O'Reilly. Advance Auto Parts had them on their website but not in stock in the store. That's frickin stupid. $13.88 for plugs and anti-seize.

I copied and pasted this right off of their web site. Tell me why NAPA would charge $8.49 each and you all are telling me much cheaper?
NGK Spark Plug - Iridium
Usually ships in 24 hours. NGK
7164 $ 8.49
@Gap .050"@
And no, I'm not stupid. I live in a mountainous region and there are only (2) parts stores within 40 miles of me and I had to get plugs at the time, so I had no choice.
