Default non platinum OE replacement spark plugs

looking for the part number for non-platinum OE replacement spark plugs for a 99 Si(R).. any downside with going with non-platinum (besides more frequent replacement)?

Thanks (search sucks)

yes.. and i was asking for the OE parts.. ie NGK platinum came stock which are somewhere in the $12/piece range.. isn't there a comparable NGK non-platinum plug?.. nothing wrong with being cheap..

IMO the O.E. Ngk plugs are MUCH better than any of the platinum plugs that I have used. They all seem to get soft at higher rpms. The NGKs feel much more responsive, and they're only about $8 here.
