I like to replace mine every few months, just because it's an easy and cheap thing to do (depending on which plugs you get). They range from $6-40 depending on what you get

Stock plugs (NGK) should run about $8.00.

The GS-R comes with platinum plugs which are good for 60K miles; therefore, there would be no real benefit to change them at 26K miles.

I use Bosch platinum's, only 8 bucks a set but I see significant erosion of the tip when I change them every 20k

Use the NKG platinums. About 55$ from Acura.

God, they RAPE you!! Does ANYONE know of a cheaper source for the NGK platinum plugs that they run in the GSR's?

What are your guys' opinions on the Denso Iridium plugs?

They're hopelessly overpriced and do nothing to increase performance.

Ngk Copper every three months regardless of mileage. I do spray though and they are only $10 for 4.
