Wrong spark plug?

[Lukey]

dunno. peace of mind having a better quality product?

even though my car isnt special and my engine (b18b2 (non-vtec)) has a few problems here and there like headgasket leak, sump gasket leak and a few more things, i still like to use the best quality products i can use. they are all disposable products like tyres and petrol so i dont mind spending the extra money on better quality products. like using 98ron over 91ron even though im lucky to get 400-450 out of a tank (i fill up when im down to about 1/4 left) or having a large amount of camber and wearing tyres out within 20,000kms, id still rather fork out for the better quality product.

It's not a 'better product' it just lasts longer. I prefer to change my plugs every 10k KMs and clean them with a light sand paper on the 5k KM service in between.

Up to you what you want to do

I paid last time for Iridium plugs for $16.50. $200, do you have an 8cylinder car?

[dougie_504]

Yeah I paid about $17 at Bursons but then took them back and went for regular NGK's. $200? I'm a bit confused...

The NGK's last longer but I don't think you can clean them. Otherwise they don't really do anything performance-wise for your engine AFAIK so I stick to regular ones for cheapness and just clean them as I need to
