Default I need new spark plugs, what brand is the Best for our tegs?

I need new plugs... it's time to change them, my car got 60k miles +. What is the best ones out there? or should I just stay with stock ones?
I want something that give me a strong "vroooom" when I turn the engine on.

NGK iridium, from clubplug.net, like 50 bucks a set shipped. (actually cheaper than the OEM ones from Acura)

otherwise I would just get the regular NGKs are always good.

stockers, or ngk coppers. the coppers don't last as long as the iridiums, but they're cheaper, and copper is better for conductivity.

you have a 95 ls right? stock plug should be NGK V-power ZFR5F-11 (stock # 2262) for your car.

yeah, it's 95 ls, . I was looking at clubplug.net What if I put the NGK G power Platinum in my LS, does it make any difference? better? or no?

so NKG V power = stock, that's cool.

stock NGK or if you're a cheapy like me.. just get NGK copper... gotta change them more often but they're a lot cheaper... (if plat. are cheaper in the long run, just think of it as i don't like to shell out as much money at one time)

most people who get bigger wires don't need them.

another question, If i get the NGK irdium or platinum for my LS, Must I change the wires I have in the car now to bigger ones? or it is recommended to change my wires?
Do I also have to change the O2 senser?

the v power ngk is $3.00 and the G power platinum is $4.00 at clubplug.com, not much of a price difference. does the platinum one last longer? how much longer on an LS teg?

Stick with OEM ignition components (spark plugs, plug wires, cap and rotor). They cant be beat, and your motor was designed to run on them.

What he said. Stock ignition components are your best bet.
