Spark plugs......again.

[spm01]

hi all, hope everyone had a great christmas.

i intend on doing a full service sometime during january and need to order some plugs and after searching for ages on here and finding so many posts i thought it better to ask.
where is everyone ordering their plugs from? i have found these on camskill and they are NGK platinum plugs but i want to confirm these are right and good plugs before ordering them.

also anyone upgraded their bushes with poly ones? if so where is the best place to get these from?

cheers in advance.

i got mine from sparkplugs.co.uk alot cheaper ithink it was these ones BKR6EIX http://www.sparkplugs.co.uk/pages/pricing/applications/NGK-cars.asp

thanks for the site mate, i will have a look shortly.

has anyone tried platinum and iridium and is able to offer a comparisson between the 2? i was going to go for the platinum but there seems to be a few takers on the iridium, or is that just because they are cheaper?

[ANTHONY]

i went for the iridium

If you buy these, you'll need to re-gap them - 0.8mm is what they need to be set too.:scholar:

thanks anthony, much appreciated.

its odd how the dearer standard ones are 7.63 and the site says they are enhances plug over the OEM ones, but then Iridium ones are cheaper at 5.72 and are performance enhanced and look even better again.

can anyone comment on the difference between the 2 and if there are any recomendations to which ones i should buy.

[ANTHONY]

personally I'd go for the Iridium

I've just this hour bought a set of 6 from sparkplugs.co.uk for about £42 inc VAT+Del.

I bought BKR7EIX (slightly cooler running than the 6). Note the removal of the -11 at the end as that means the preset gap is 0.8mm which I am informed is correct for our car.
