cum on peeps cast ur vote

[mrtim]

I voted for NGK cos theyre well good for the money and I wouldny pay the extra money for the Super 4s.

However, when my 40s were runnin well rich, the NGKs fouled up really quickly and performed awful. The Super 4s performed much better, obviously to do with the 4 prongs vs 1 prong thing.

Still wouldnt pay extra for them tho.

ive heard different things, i currently have bosch super 4s, but ive heard two different statements about them, 1) it creates 4 sparks making them an excelent spark, 2) it splits 1 spark into 4, meaning, its not as effective and may effect performance, but for 20 lizzies, i aint complaining!

i havent tried the NGK, nor have i seen them anywhere, how much are they? are they any good?

[Stuart]

NGK type R, not grooved :D

best plugs ive ever used. way way way way better than bosch "super" 4's

and not bad price for ?1-2 a plug

[nova dosed]

ngk type r what are them ones and why not grooved

Grooved are about ?20
bosch super 4's are about ?20

same price last time i checked

When i bought my car it had super 4's on it and i didnt really notice i replaced with the NGK ones and noticed an improvement over the Bosch ones.

[nova dosed]

Ben what NGK ones did u use

[rgv_stu]

super 4's will not give 4 sparks they only give 1 across the closest gap

there is no real benifit for them just last longer

i have used both and now just use ngk's cheaper and just as good

[Fester]

currently using NGK, have used Bosch in the past as well, no preference just whatevers in from where I buy them from, can't see any discernable difference between standard Bosch Supers and NGK's.....

sorry!

[mikeoxford]

NGK

[ade]

Basch super 4's at the mo - one strong spark - more places for it to connect to.

[Ben (lurk75)]

Type r's, same ones as cambridge mentioned.

[stugsi]

NGK R way better then 4's

[nova dosed]

just been to halfords and i was shocked NGK V grooved Spark plugs were only ?10 i was sooo shocked thought they wud be as much as 4's but there not halfords has come up tops for a change

[nova dosed]

the plugs are on and they do actually make a difference picks up better and seems more torquey

[jatinder]

ngk are the best used to have spitfires made my escort run poo they fouled up really quickly. can't belive i spent nearly ?50 on thoses spitfires still got them acutally if anyone wants them!

[Dicko]

escort r poo anyways :lol:

[nova dosed]

i agree with dicko well except the cozi is ok

[Evolution]

Looks like im making a trip to halfords tomorrow for some NGKs.
Would it be better to get grooved or what?

[jatinder]

escorts r poo but i was 17 it was in excellent nick no rust and it was free so i didnt complain

[nova dosed]

yes m8 get grooved ones it has a 90 degree abgle cut out the element ooooooo lol 10.98 i paid

[Evolution]

thanks. ill get them tomorrow. not a bad price either.

[Evolution]

Errm, rather embarrassed about this but i went to halfords and didnt know what spark plugs to get :oops:
I saw several kinds of grooved NGKs, they all had different codes stuck on the packets though like 415, 416, 417 etc
Ive never had to buy spark plugs before so left empty handed.
NOVA GTE......what NGKs should i get for it?

and again :oops:

[Tazzy]

so out of-

-NGK Type-R Plugs
-NGK V-Grooved Plugs
-Bosch Super 4 Plugs

all of which are nearly the same price, ?10 to ?20, which is the actual best?

[nova dosed]

sorry to say but NGK type R and NGK grooved are both the same all NGK plugs i have come accros have said Type R on them

[Stuart]

in halfords there should be a referene book by the spark plugs, this is for getting the code to get the rigt set of plugs.

not hard jsut look for the gte.


ngk type R no grooves are the best available (imho)

there are ngk race ones too but they last about 600miles and they cost ?6.50 a plug lol (not worth it really)

[TomSR]

I'm using NGK R's :D
