    Time to change plugs again.

    I'll be heading to Autozone (or NAPA) shortly. I don't want to rely on their computer's recommendation for plugs.

    What plugs do you recommend for an 2004 OEM WRX?

    Thanks!

    NGK Coppers if you have time to change them often. If not, get the NGK iridiums as they will last a little longer.

    That's good to know. I bought those last time - they seemed to work just fine.

    Thanks chaps.

    I appreciate the advice.

    Autozone had 3 NGK Iridiums in stock :unamused:

    The good news: SOK is 1 mile from where I work. And they have minimum stock levels that are >3 plugs.

    The bad news: I just spent all my weekend beer money. Tears started to form, I tell ya....

    Just don't go 30k on those iridiums no matter what they say. Every iridium plug I have pulled out at 30k has had the gap widened considerably from where it was initially set.
