Was thinking of changing spar plugs in my stock v6 ,,, what are the benefits of
this and can anyone recommend a brand or price of any good ones for better
performance?
I go for NGK or bosch.
If your sparkies aren't that old then you will not notice any difference. You might wanna change the leads if you don't know when they were replaced or if it looks worn.
iridium tips,ngk BPR6IX-10 is the code
If they are in good nick, don't change them, no benefits at all.
I use NGK's. Iridiums are a bit of overkill IMO. Take one out and check it, if the gap is more than 1.5mm and the electrode is a bit rounded, then replace them.
Just use standard issue holden plugs. These work just fine even on performance cars.

I use Bosch Super 4
I also use bosch for anything else that i need (leads/coils/belts etc etc) excellent stuff![]()

I tried getting some Super4's but they are practically impossible to get. They are phasing them out apparently. Instread i go the super plus plugs with yttrium. They are standard HR8DCV+ with a 1.3mm gap which attracted me as i run dual fuel. I dont need to regap it. Tell me, is the Heat range 8 which is standard for Bosch, hotter than 6 which is the standard for ngk for these cars ??? IM hoping the Bosch isnt too hot a plug. I just want standard, they dont make the sper plus plug in a cooler 7 for some reason.
where did you buy them? because supercheap stock bosch. as for the heat range i couldnt tell you sorry
