Effectively little to choose between them for performance on that engine - the main difference between the plugs mentioned is life expectancy.

I bought a set of NGK iridiums from op oils for $52 shipped when my plugs where due about year ago. I've also tried autolite 103s, but cant remember if i noticed a difference. I traded the car in a week after installing.

we use the NGK range.
The way we see it is if your using a plug with a shorter life expectancy to save some money, in the long run it doesn't save you money if paying a workshop to replace them as most workshops have a minimum half hour labour charge for any work.

The recommended NGK plug is ITR6F13, which is the iridium plug
Cheaper to import from UK via eBay |
