NGK Spark plugs...

Does anyone know where I can get some NGK copper plugs for my 97 GXE for a decent price? Thanks!

I would try your local import auto parts store. I got them for $1.60ish. You could order them from Summit Racing, but you need to know the NGK stock number. Most people only throw around the part # on here.

I needed plugs, and I just went to the dealer, it was 20 bucks all together, do the math, that's cheap compared to 60 bucks for the platnium ones

as soon as I put 'em in I could sense a difference in the idle, and the exhaust, it didn't jump up 'n down just stayed where it should be

check out the link below. i ordered 6 for my max and 4 for my girlfriend's integra for about $25 shipped. the ones for our maximas were only ~$1.80 each whereas the ones for her acura were ~$2.20 each...odd.

also, be sure to order using the part number given in an earlier post. i had to do a lot of talking to convince them that i knew what i was doing by ordering copper plugs instead of the platinum plugs.

Dude I got mine at Courtesy Nissan for $9.00 for all 6! You should be able to order them online from there site I think its www.courtesyparts.com don't quote me on that but I think. I just drove down the street and bought them cause I live in Dallas. They are authentic Nissan too, cause they come in a box with authentic nissan labels. I guess that NGK just made them specifically for nissan parts houses? Damn dude they are soo much more responsive than the platinums, prolly cause they burn hotter! You will love the change you feel.
Peace
