Most expensive is NOT the best for our cars. I had stupidly put in Bosch Platinum 4+'s as soon as I bought my car, and in the month or two following it while resarching things about maximas and finding this forum, I learned that it was a bad thing ...

NGK plat is what the car comes with, but the only reason they come with them from the factory presumably is because they last 60k instead of 30k (copper.) But, in all reality, copper being the most conductive metal between the two they do infact work better in principle.

You may think paying more for plugs is better, but I bet if you went and changed out your bosch for the NGK coppers (like 1.58 each) you will notice the engine is smoother and revs nicer; and that isn't just my butt dyno speaking.
