NGK is also made in Japan, perfect sizing and quality compared to OEM
Bosch and Top gun are manufactured in China. Over time leads will pop out of the distributor (bad rubber quality and fitment/China made). And have really bad seals on the lead caps as they come off/loose very easily.
Used all of these brands, NGK will be more than sufficiant
Calling locations will be really convenient for you and will save you time travelling/fuel.
Call Autobarn, SupercheapAUTO, Repco, JDMyard. If you have patients try the US eBay, however be careful imitations.
Make sure tell each vendor "Hey these guys sell these at this price, could you do better?" And continue on with other vendors and see which one will win best price. It will give you a better idea on how much the actual "Cost Price" is.
JDMyard quoted OEM brand new for $100~$150 B-series. OEM is best will last for ages + made for the engine, in the long run it is also an investment.
if just an everyday car, just buy quality. nothing worse than wanting to go somewhere and have the car die on you.
i heavily recommend NGK. good quality, might cost slightly more than the cheaper ones, but they are built to last and you will most likely save money in the long run.
