Potential Newb Question
Which of you have upgraded / replaced your sparkplugs and wires?
which brands did you go with?
if you have a full socket set, is it easy to do?

There are no "wires" on the 350Z it's coil packs. Plugs commonly used are NGK Iridium LFR5AIX-11 or NGK stock number "4469". THey are about 10 bux a plug but worth the money.

IIRC, I don't think they lasted very long and caused some issues for him.

running ngk LFR7AIX-11 at the moment and they seem alright so far. idle seems to be smoother, but that could be a placebo effect
