spark plug & wire replacement help
hey guys, the time has come to replace the plugs and wires. i did some looking on pembroke pines trademotion site but couldnt come up with the right part #'s for my 93 SC3. has anyone gone with an aftermarket set up or should i stick with oem?
The only other "after maket" thing I have seen, wasnt really "after market," just not stock. Some people take the Coil Pack system off of the MKIII 7MGTE because they go turbo and the distributor doesnt fit between the turbo well. If I was you, I would stay stock. These plugs and wires are fine. Get some good plugs and good wires. Wont have to worry about anything else.

ngk BKR7EIX if you are turbo.
ngk BKR6EIX if you are stock.
you have to regap them I believe, but these plugs will last you a long time.
you can go with non-iridium if you enjoy changing your plugs more often.

you can gap iridiums. it is just a little bit harder to...
you have to unless they are already the right gap.
I think if you are stock they might have a set in the right gap. i think they have a -11 or some other number after the name but always double check the gap.
just be sure to buy an extra plug or 2 if you have to regap, because it is difficult to regap them. if you overshoot the gap down and try to "un-gap" them up, they are prone to breaking off.. so gap em down slowly and take your time. i broke the first one (electrode tip actually trying to ungap it) and then did 6 perfect ones down to .024 (for turbo), which is a significant change in gap.
It just takes some patience and some good ol fashioned tapping on a wooden bench.
did the trick for me and man do they run nice.
