I just had mine replaced with OEM plugs, which are NGK platinum! Repco was much cheaper than purchasing from Honda... like a good $40 cheaper! Autobarn was actually the cheapest when I shopped around but they don't usually carry stock and I had to wait like 2 weeks to get them ordered in whereas Repco took 1 day to arrive...

I run Denso iridium Ik22 or Ik24, the 22's are common are most sr20's run them so most places stock them.

Iridiums last longer than platinum but are more expensive.

I use NGK Iridium one step colder heat range then oem, I can definitely notice the difference especially at the track when your continuously in the high rpms. Good bang for buck mod too. but these last only 60,000km or should be changed more often depends how hard you drive, a pack of 4 could be had for around 60 bucks from ebay! I just bought 3 packs I might sell one pack :)

I ended up just taking the plunge and getting them. I did a bit of research and their aparently pretty good and at $42 including postage from the US I cant really complain. I was tempted to test out those new pulstar plugs that "claim" to add an extra 10 horse power but somthing about them seems way too gimicy and I read a few stories about them blowing peoples engines up so I thought Id give them a miss. Id love to hear if anybody else has had any experiences with them though

I find a 8 heat range in the NGK to work better under hotter conditions then a 7 heat range, read this to get some understanding as to why
