Default 105K!!!!!!!!!!!

Just turned 105K and its time to put in some new plugs. Can anyone offer me some advice on which ones to get. my mods are , cold air, kinetix plenum, test pipes and Ingen true dual.

Also at 105K is there anything else good to do other than recommended by Nissan such as fuel system cleaning like the one they run in the fuel rail not the in tank BS or an intake cleaning>>


Thanks for the help

Why not OEM plugs? If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I would get NGK or Greddy iridium plugs.

really though, it won't make all that much of a difference. OEM works fine too.

I guess I'm not willing to rape my car as it needs to be to get decent short times 2.3 is my best. I used to cut 2.0 and the occasional 1.9 60 foot in the stang. I know its my track abilities in this car since Ive never lost to another N/A Z on the street

but back on topic. Any other maintenance I can can/should do not listed by Nissan.

You don't need to rape your car to pull 2.0 on street tires. And you only trapped 98mph so I wouldn't boast about how fast your car is... and it violates our TOU to post anything related to street racing.

Anyway, get the stock plugs again. The part number is NGK PLFR5A-11.

What's your logic/reasoning behind this recommendation?

Have you done any other maintenance? If not, you might want to change air filter, tranny fluid, gear fluid, oil, oil filter and possibly flush radiator too.

I just had to throw that in.
