stupid ? on Spark Plugs

[CB7 R3ason]

What is the difference in NGKs and regular spark splug are they worth it and can you tell a difference in the two

[choppacity]

i have to use the oem spark plugs or else a random cylinder will stop working in a month or so. its a weird problem. so yea ive tried other plugs but i decided to stop wasting my money

[CB7 R3ason]

im running on regular sprak plugs and wires im seeing more and more cb7s with NGK wires and plugs im debating on getting them or not

[illestatus]

ngk is the recommended oem brand, i have them in my car, ive also used nology

I don't think there is a huge difference - I couldn't tell the difference at least. I just chose NGK because I had heard that they were a good brand and the plugs were pre-gapped which made things easier.

what bout the wires any difference

what bout the wires any difference

To me I also didn't notice any difference in the wires - as illestatus stated they are a good oem recommended brand so I would not expect any amazing performance. I just replaced the wires while I was doing the cap and rotor since I did not know when they had been changed last. Maybe someone else can offer some more insight who's old wires were in worse shape than mine

The only reason Honda suggests NGK is because stock plugs were NGK with platinum tips. You can get any other brand with platinum tips, but they typically cost more. There isn't much difference in the low end plugs/wires. The high end plugs are better as they reduce the risk of detonation in aftermarket applications. The higher end wires do have significantly lower resistance. Again, none of this is of real importance unless you're running some kind of boost, nitrous, or extreme N/A pistons. Anyone correct me if I'm wrong tho!

Hope this helps!

Thanks man so the really dont make a diff its just a preferred brand

[wed3k]

ngk coppers are the cheapest and i use them frequently. im also sporting bosch plug wires with no problems. prefer msd or crane cams

Just another vote for the NGK wires over here. I had them, changed to Nology wires on my turbo'd engine (didn't notice a real difference) then back to NGK after one of the Nology wires totally seperated. Just recently changed them, too, within the last week. Glad to see I'm not the only one in the dark about plug wire "performance".

Plain vanilla NGK or Denso plugs. As simple as it is to change our spark plugs there is no reason to use long lasting ones.
