I Need New Plugs...

Anyone have any suggestions on what is the best for me to put in. It's a '96 3.2 with 150,000 on it. I put Bosch Platinums in after I bought it and I don't really like them. I was thinking about the NGK Iridiums, but is it really necessary, and will they do any good?

i think the NGKs are what the cars come with from the factory... and they will last you a long time.. i would spend the extra money for them...

Emissions Warranty

Have you already used the acura extended emissions warranty? http://www.nsxprime.com/FAQ/Reference/tsb/98-031.htm

They change the plugs and ignition coils free of charge if you're under 150000. If you're just around that milleage you might want to talk to the dealership abt that.

I called them about it and they said it was already done, probably before I bought the car 8 months ago. Sucks!

Is there a way I can verify that they really did do it and aren't lying to me?

Word. I did call another dealer and it was done. Oh well...I guess that just means I'll do the plugs myself. I'm also going to do the valve cover gaskets and the plug seals as well. I need a new oil pan gasket too, but when I called the dealer to ask if they had one in stock I was told that there is no oil pan gasket for the 3.2. Is this true? And in that case I just use silicone for it right?
