ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

      Denso & NGK.

      OEM is the way to go unless you are on full race mode.

        In all honesty, I would use the NGKs from the dealership. They are ZFR5F-11 v-powers, you can get them at other places as well. I have tried a couple of the hyped plugs, but the difference was not noticable.

          Also $100 on a set of spark plugs is a stick under the ass.

          NGK Iridium will cost you like $20 a set.
          NGK regulars not more than $8

            A hotter coil like an MSD or Accell would probably make more of a difference to your engine /combustion than a set of $100 spark plugs and at a less expensive price too.

              how can they justify 100 dollars for spark plugs? that's INSANE unless it gives 10 MPG more. what's this company's name? or what are the plugs called?

                I think you're thinking Pulstar plugs. I was part of the beta test, so mine were free. Anyway, there's a slight increase in power throughout the RPM band, as well as in throttle response. However, I didn't find much for their fuel consumption claims. I only picked up 1 more MPG

                  stick with NGK plugs, some aftermarket plugs (bosch, autolite) can heat up and "weld" themselves to the head.

                    Yeah, I'd stick with something like NGK V-power or something....for 100$ you might as well buy some decent plugs AND better wires.

                      or invest that in an MSD ignition
