Ordering New Spark Plugs-Help
Im getting close to my 60,000Mile maintanance on my 02 TA.
I was on the Summitt Racing website looking at spark plugs to order.
I dont want them to put stock plugs in. Right now I have NGK plugs installed.
Here are some others I found************************************
NGK V-power
Bosch Pure platinum
NGK power platinum***
Accel U groove performance
Splitfire
Autolite Copper Core-cheapest $1.50 per plug
What do most of you have? Im leaning towards the NGK Power Platinum

Don't know the LS equivalent, but us LT guys just run plain old NGK TR55s (TR6s for NOS). Since the V-Power is essentially a normal NGK with a grooved electrode, I'd just get that one.

Unless I'm missing something, the Irridiums are only going to last longer and most likely not give any better spark than your average $1.50 plug (NGKs). So unless you plan to keep your car another 60K miles, I'd stick with the NGKs and with the difference have a nice steak dinner

NGKs are fine. Are you changing them yourself or paying someone to do it? If your paying someone...ask for all 8 of the old ones back. The passengers side rear is a PIA to get out and I have know of a few people that have paid to have their plugs changed and the tech would skip that one and leave the old one in.

Im ordering the spark plugs myself and taking it to the dealership where I usually have all my maintanance work done. My extended warranty is already in the computer there.
Thx for the adviceI w/ ask them to save all 8 plugs to make sure they dont miss any.
