NGK IRIDIUM any good?

Just wondering if any of you guys ever used ngk spark plug wires and ngk iridium spark plugs? Are they any good? Are there any problem using them? Planning to get some, but need opinion from guys that used them before.  My car is a 98 eclipse gst.

I have a 99 GST and I use the NGK's and they work fine. Unless your current plugs are super fouled or corroded you wont notice much of a difference...just your combustion will be a lot cleaner/smoother.

i only run those plugs! they work great!!!

I use them in my car as well and they work really good

I have heard on DSM Talk that they dont work so well in the 2g turbos.

What were the cons on these plugs?

I just hear alot about them not working well with the GST/GSXs i hear about it all the time... "My car was running like **** after i changed my plugs.. i couldnt figure it out.. so i went out and got some brand new NGKs and put them in.. the car is back to normal" Just like that!

i dont know how your post makes any sense sebba?? they dont work but after switching to ngk it runs fine?? wtf?? i am confused. anyways, they work great! they are good plugs! and i have a gst. they make my car run good. i have used nothing but them.

The ngk bpr6es or 7es work well with the turbo 2nd gen depending on ur mod. Also need to gap them correctly. I had the irridum style and wasn't that great so i switch to those.

Irridium plugs dont work that great... thats what i was saying

okay, well what plugs do you run?? denso iridiums??? just wondering cuz maybe i will try them to see if i like them!!

I'd say 90% of DSM'ers use NGK BPR6ES and BPR7ES (one step colder than the 6ES).  The other 10% use others because they don't know any better
The NGK 6ES and 7ES is what every DSM'er will tell you to use.  They are tried and true and it makes no sense in trying to reinvent this old horse.
If your ignition is something you're worried about...no need to worry, the ignition system works.  The next best thing is a COP (coil over plug).  That's overkill though, unless you're making big power and need to have a more complete burn so that you're not running rich or blowing out the fire.
What Sebba stated pretty much sums up the general consensus of the DSM community about the plugs.

If you're still not convinced...try them out.  Unless, you notice a huge improvement, don't worry about getting back to us though, unless you've got before and after on a dyno

Oh yeah, you won't be able to "feel" the plugs ignition.  You'll only be able to see the numbers on a dyno...yeah, even a butt dyno won't be able to tell.  Log it, then you'll be able to tell.

i will remember this and try out different ones next time. how much do these ngk's cost and where can i purchase them at?

I get mine online.  $10 for 4 is the norm.  I can never find them in stock at the local parts stores here.  I use the 7ES btw, since I'm doing more than stock power, so I went one step colder.

yea i go the same way. I went a step colder and i like to use the copper plugs. They dont last as long but you get much better spark

where do you get them at online??

So the ngk copper is better than the irdium. What about the ngk wires, are they any good?

i actually bought mine from our vendor here. www.sparkplugs.com they were actually pretty good service

i think i am gonna pick some of those up, when i get 20 bucks! hopefully it helps out a little.... seems like the car runs fine, but maybe it will run better/smoother with those

I use BPR7ES one step colder NGK it works fine.
 

I have been running Champion Iridums, with Magnecore Wires, and its been running great.

You do not have a GST or a GSX. So your statement is irrelevant.

so should i go for 6es or 7es??
