spark plug wires
#3
I would have to say get the NGK wire set. They're not that much more expensive than stock replacements at your local parts store. Also, use either NGK or Denso spark plugs. The Bosch 2 3 & 4 have a idle problem in the VG motor.

Go to Checker/Kragen/Schuck's/whatever it is in your area and just ask for 6 NGK plugs for your car. I paid about 2 bucks a plug (probably less actually, don't quite remember) for regular old copper NGK V-Powers. Haven't installed em yet though I still need to order my wires.
Don't bother with platinums.

i use used normal bosh plats. on 5 different vg maxima's and they work perfectly, no hesitation, shaking, detination, misfire or anything. it isnt possible to get a performance gain from a simple plug change. stick with the basic bosh plat or the stock ngk's
-1.99 a plug for the bosh.
-i dont think anyone has ever used the "+4's" in their vg engine and had them work.

Well mine worked great for about the 1st month I had them in there. But after that it started having a slight hesitation. I put on a set of NGK wires and it cleared up for another month, so I guess you could about 2 months out of them, not worth the price though. Easier to stick with NGK. I do plan on trying Denso when I get back. I've used Denso in Nissans before, and had no problems. So I figured I'd try them out on the Max.

If you've had those plugs in for 4 years, I'd say its time for a change. That's probably about 40k miles you've had em. *endorses NGK copper plugs and wires*
