What spark plugs?

Hey guys...

My 1997 3.0 CL needs new spark plugs... What would you guys recommend?

NGK platinums from the dealer are $17, while they are $10 from the parts store. That's still way too much for me...What's wrong with $2-3 NGK's? I've used them in my Accord and my old Prelude, will that cause problems on this car? Some people have told me yes.

Are the 100,000 miles platinums really necessary?

Platinums are nice, but I prefer the Iridiums. They can handle nitrous It really depends on your preference man. I don't think the platinums are all that great.

I am not going to be doing any engine upgrades, especially not NOS.

I am just wondering what I can use to get by, without sacrificing performance... I really don't want to spend $60 on plugs.
