Hey all!
Went to repco today to grab some new plugs for the MZ20... so they are telling me that the standard NGK ones are platinum - bout $19 a pop. Just a query, what plugs are other 7mgte users running and where do they get them from? im not really in the mood to spend $120 on plugs 
Cheers

Yeap. I got NGK platinums for my 7mgte. $80 bucks though . Why don't you try a Toyota spare parts joint? They might end up cheaper for once.

ive got some too (i havent put them in yet though.. theyre sitting in my glovebox waiting for my MSD leads to arrive from the US..)
apparently the platinums are better than the iridiums.. heard a lot of stuff about iridiums not being all theyre cracked up to be and the platinums being bulletproof..

yeah, ok no worries. Apparently the platinum ones last for frickin ages, so thats why they are so pricey. Dunno what the difference is really, i just dont wanna pay so much money 
Dingaling > If you could get me the codes of them that would be great, have you had any probs with them?? Other than that, looks like its off to repco for some platinums.... goody.

Ok, i got the shits and bit the bullet, just bought the platinum ones. The bloke at Carbitz gave them to be for $13 a pop, so it was alright. Cheers for the feedback all!

i bought some double platinum plugs for my 7mge, they cost about 19/ plug...but they make a fucken huge difference in go power!
The 7mgte plugs have a smaller gap than the non turbo ones.
