The dual-tipped Toyota OEM Nippon Denso platnium plugs are good enough, IMO don't waste your money on so-called "performance" plugs.

What's red spark plugs???

Are the Nology wires same quality / better / worse?

In the case of the Denso Iridiums, $10-17(US) is kind of a lot to be paying for a single spark plug that doesn't really do much for the car (except last longer)... I dunno, maybe I'm crazy.

[BTW, 91camryDX, I saw your site on cardomain.com... good job on the brake lights. Did they turn out well for you?]

Hey, are these performance wires or just replacements? Also, the top seal part of the plug looks different in the pic, when you got it, did it have the larger square seal that fits into the top of the motor?

Thanx!!!

']['R[) CAMRY- i dont still habe the package to be 100% but i do believe they are an upgrade due to different conductor in wires. They arent real thick like you see on hondas (but ive herd the thickeness of theirs is nothing more than more wire insulation, to look like they are getting more wire)
also yes the wires fit perfect they had the rubber square seal that fits into the cover..
Overall ive been happy with them , with the combination of fuel injector cleaner, it felt more livley and responsive...
Just my opinion
Lemme know if you need more info...

Cool great thanx! I bet they are still a bit thicker then stock though hu? Cuz when I look at my stock wires they are the thinest wires. :-?

I only have 130,000KM on my car but since it is almost 9 years old, I think it is time to start replacing some of these old items.

No spark plug is worth $10+...Just go to the local NAPA or whatever is near you house and get NGK's for like $3 or less..and that still is a little high but they are good

i got iridium plugs for 16 cad a pair at canadian tire. there worth it mainly cause its hard to change plugs on the back bank of plugs on a v6 if your doing it yourself. if not then it will be very exspensive. at first the plugs didnt feel like they did much of a difference in terms of performance but after a month now i think they have broken in and there awsome. strong smooth power.

probably just because you have a 3vz 5spd 3vz represent... j/k

i will most likely get iridiums along with forced induction
