be like it is
the "V Power" ones are the stock replacement i believe...something like ZRF5 or a combo of those letters and numbers. ftl dyslexia :lawl:

they should be in a yellow box with a silver "badge" on the box...unless they changed em in the past year.

NGK copper plugs are the best value, and they last longer than iridium.

They are called the NGK V-Power plugs.

and pls explain to me why copper plugs last longer than iridium plugs? :eh:

just get the copper plugs.. cheap and u can replace them as many times as u want... replacing copper plugs regularly > buying an expensive set of plugs for a claimed 1 hp increase :hihi:

the other issue with plugs as I see it, copper is a better conductor than platinum. I use copper in all my cars, and always will unless I buy a car that coppers trip the check engine light. it hasnt happened yet despite what the counter teenagers may say at the local auto parts store

sure, platinum will last 105K miles, but have you looked at them after 60K? I'll change my coppers once a year and keep my performance and gas mileage up :)

Iridium plugs are GARBAGE. I don't know why they ever came out with those plugs. They don't give any performance what so ever. IN FACT, Saving your money, and buying 2 Sets of V Powers and changing them once a year, vs keeping Iridiums for 2 years would result in less lost power by running clean plugs.

Use NGK V Power ZFR5F.

Just changed out to Iridium's -- they're good at what they do lol.

Honestly, the price difference isn't big enough to warrant any real argument imo...just get whatever you feel like and you should be fine.

lol good luck with the rear left cylinder (if you have a v6)...
