Cheap is better. Iridium is many times the price, and is good a little longer. Don't buy platinum. Pulstars are decent, but not worth $100.

NGK and Champion are going to be the 2 most popular brands. Personally I prefer ngk coppers, but I've had good luck with the platinums this time around.

There isn't a best brand, just a type.

As long as it isn't platnum the neon will like it.

NGK V-power is good. on the other hand any copper ones are good.

As long as the coil is good, and there are quality wires installed, any brand plugs will work. How long they last depends on how the car is driven/fuel mixture quality.

The cheapo NGKs will do you good. Don't spend extra on the fancy spark plugs. In some cases they will actually make your car run worse, at the very least you are spending more for no gain.

modern did that comparison, its on their website. if i'm not mistaken it was granatelli 1st, and msd 2nd.

dont get msd though, i've had nothing but problems with mine, but since they have a warranty everytime something happens they always give me a new set :roll: i think i'm on my 2nd free set.

For a street car it really won't matter.

Last time I got wires I bought some accels from summit.

I use Bosch the so-call magnetic something and it runs perfect. I don't think resistance do matter so any wireset that can be used should have no problem.

Champion coppers, same as original. They're cheap, they work and this car has the easiest plugs to change. Where's the fun in putting platinums or iridiums in there? you'll never see them again for years. :rofl:
