Yeah I didn't like that either, but they are sending me a new set for free so maybe I was just unlucky. I will let you guys know how the next set does.

^ Well let us know how they work out. I think these plugs will be more prone to have issues with it because they kinda work like those old Nology capacitor wires right? More things can go wrong with them than normal plugs.

For any of you that are interested. Pulse Star replaced my first set of plugs right away. I recieved the replacement only 3 day after I called them and told them one of my plugs was not fireing. I have been running with the new set ever since and they work great. My butt tells me that I can feel a little more power on the low end.
If your interested in these Plugs I say go for it. I like them. Install takes about an hour, and you will need the right tools. If you want to change your plugs let me know and i will post picks on how to do it.

Anyway, he says the part number is SVFN7YR, and thy are $11 each + $7 shipping. This also seems to be the same plug they sell for other Lexus cars. Doesn't it seem a little odd that the same plug seems to be used for such different engines?
$73
Hey Gernby,
I just saw the below post in this thread. Make sure they are the same length as OEM since we have direct injection.
Hey Gernby what ever happened to the TM Plugs?

The TM plugs were not the right length. I never pursued a refund.
