Putting NGK Coppers in my ka-E And was considering picking up NGK wires. Is it really worth getting NGK wires? Any noticeable difference?

It will make a difference if your current wires are old or defective. That being said, it will not be a noticeable performance difference, but maybe a smoother idle or easier startup. So basically don't waste your money if your motor is otherwise stock and running fine already. I got them when I was diagnosing an ignition problem, because my car was going to be turboed, and because I like how they look lol.

^this
engine bay aesthetics is going to be the only major gain
not worth the money
i have a regular set that has one mismatched wire and a blue ngk set switching them back and forth i have noticed absolutely no differences what so ever

Ditto on zero difference unless they're old and shorting or the ends are pulling out.
