I just wanted to know everyones experiences with BOSCH over NGK. I my self have just put in Bosch Platinum +2's and notice
a more responsive and solid acceleration.

What has your experiences been ....
good... bad....

Also, if anyone can comment on the Bosch Spark Plug
wires over NGK's or (Nissan's Stock NGK's) that would be great.

Thanks everyone.

NGKs were in the car when I bought it... They stayed in until I tuned it up after a month (I was babying it) and I got new ones... Waited another month and tried platinum + 4s, and I was impressed, so much so that I am on my 3rd set now almost 2 years later...

NGK, that what came in my car when I bought it. I had Bosch Platinum 4 on my last car and they aint all that great.

Isn't platinum a crappy conductor? I always thought they were more for longevity then for performence, but I guess its all a matter of what your looking for.

Don't know much about it's conductivity, but that's what came in the car and what Nissan says to put in it, so I have platinum plugs...

Of course they say to put them in, they're more durable. Unless your highly modified I doubt you would need to worry about a more powerful spark anyway. Platinum it is for a daily driver.
