HKS Iridium.... If you got the wallet for them. They use a smaller tip. Requires less voltage to fire and do not foul as easily as NGK's. Use these in Leading plugs if you want to same some $$$ as well.
Also get the Taylor wire's. That's my next choice. I beleive they
are called Spiral pro.
best wishes jc.

Do a search on this forum, NGK, Taylor/Vertex, Accel, and MSD are all highly recommended and not too expensive (as far as spark plug wires go). I got my Taylor/Vertex Spiro-Pro from Summit Racing for something like $26.

If you're gonna be running limited mods, use stock heat plugs. They'll idle better. Also don't spend the extra $$$ for Platinum plugs, they only last 4-6k miles longer than the non-Plat plugs. If they lasted 2x as long then it would be worth it (for twice the $$$).

If you're looking to undertake this change yourself, I put up a page that could help in your efforts...

From everything I've read, the stock NGK wires and plugs are fine. Replacing the wires is a fun job, good luck!

I like my Magnecore wires, you can get them from Corksport. I would recommend using the stock platinum plugs.
