nothing more than a couple springy hose clamps and a wire clip holding it on. I even did a roadside change on one once. Takes about 5-10 mins.

different canadian tires will vary in terms of what they carry.
for example, the one canadian tire i usually go to carries no metric-sized bolts/nuts whatsoever.
but i'm pretty sure than CT sells NGK plugs, just maybe not the ones for our cars...

True however any Canadian Tire has Access to ALL of the same stuff they can get what you need... however it is true that our spark plugs have been discontinued on the stocking/availability list. ( I worked for CT for a year in parts ) But I can assure you that NGK is still stocked and sold by CT it is their largest selling spark plugs by FAR!
Yes CTG sells NGK, no they don't sell RX-7 plugs, but I managed to get my local pats guy to "special" order them. Took about 4 weeks to get them, lol.
My local Mazda dealer has them in stock for around the same $$$, or I can pop down to Ontario Mazda (who also has them in stock) and pay 20% less...

But i found the hardest part was getting all the damned rusty siezed 20 year old bolts undone...
And it's not like you can just turn a propane torch on bolts near your fuel system...

if you want to buy spark plugs in bulk (i think minimum 8 required or something), then check out www.clubplug.net
after shipping it's marginally cheaper than the dealership, but at least you don't have to get off your *** to get them
