I have the choice of Bosch or NGK spark plugs, but the Bosch ones are significantly more expensive. Does anyone here have any suggestion on which set to get? What are your personal experiences? There is always the holden ones, but I don't think they would be as good.

ive used the super4's before.....now that was a waist of money cos three of them fouled up after 40,000 k's.....they are suppose to last 100,000.
ngk platinums are just as good and are about 1/3 of the price

Changing plugs every service is a bit much. They will do a minimum 20 000kms, Changing them at the intervals in your service book is enough. It's like changing your muffler every 10 000kms, its not worn out so why replace it. And before anyone says that it's best to have new plugs to get the best power and economy, the price of plugs out weighs any gain you will get.

When you drive around with 300+rwkw you want everything to be perfect. besides, it costs me $22 to replace plugs every service...small price.
