what's your setup? I would think stock NGK plugs listed for the GSR or Type R would be fine.

I got a set of the NGK copper plugs through H-T of $2.50 each plus shipping. I just looked in the sponsor marketplace.

Company was called Import Replacement Parts

Item number:

BKR 6 E 11


Their contact is : sales@importrp.com or 425.398.1846

Shipping was fast! I ordered on a Thursday late afternoon and received them Monday.

the oem plug for both GSR's and IT-R's is the BKR6E-11 (copper v-power). BKR6ES-11 (copper standard) will work also.
gap is .044"

Stock motor, use the 5 plugs. For a high compression motor or if using FI, use a colder plug like a 6 plug. Also, Autozone carries NGK-R plugs (BKR6E-11 and BKR5E-11) for $1.50 each. Haven't seen them carry the 7 plugs yet, as those are still only special order and cost a lot.

Kinda sucks when you have a V6 motor and they only come in packs of 4

According to Autozone's website they DO NOT carry NGK plugs: http://autozone.com/servlet/Ui...dPage

Furthermore, $1.50 is WAAY cheap for V power plugs.


Optauto.com which offers a variety of performance parts at reasonable prices sells them for $3.00 each plus shipping...This is why I figured the $2.50 wasn't a bad deal at all when I purchased... http://www.optauto.com/index.h...10647

Whooops, my bad..... it's <FONT SIZE="3">Kragens</FONT> that carries the NGK plugs for $1.50 each. And yes, that is the price... I just got some a couple of weeks ago for a customer's motor, V-power plugs w/stock number 2756.

It's Autozone who sells the Denso Iridium plugs
