Default Recommendations for mid to high end spark plugs

Anyone recommend some decent plugs they use in their Z? I dont wanna go with those shitty 2 dollar ones from autozone or something. Im right at 140k and its time i start some some maintenance on the old lady.

If you're not replacing with NGK irridiums, you're making a mistake.

How so?

I've been through multiple sets of NGK coppers, both 1 step colder and regular, with no issues throughout my Z ownership.
