i am buying a zex dry kit and the next couple of days and was looking at spark plugs to get. I know that NGK is a great company and was reading about the V-power plug. It says its good for turbo, supercharged, and nitrous would this be a plug good for zex, does anyone know anything more about them?

get a local autozone or something to price match it to summit so you dont have to pay the 700 handling charge from summit.

and yea they will fit

I have a quick question about the plug you guys are using. . . the BKR7E mentioned eariler are actually for an Austin Martin, and the plug i was just given at the auto parts store are actually for a Nissan (ZFR5E-11). I Have a 2000 Accord with the F23a5 (non-Vtec), and was trying to get colder plugs to run my new ZEX kit. Are plugs really that interchangable thoughout cars? Can i use the Nissan Plugs or the Austin Plugs with no problems? I was attempting to get plugs that were 2 steps colder, but they only had a single step colder for now, so i got them and was planning on starting with the 55shot.

CN: Which plugs would you guys suggest I use? Part numbers would be help if they can be supplied.

yes bkr7e will work.

i think the guy at the parts store you went to is an idiot if he gave you ZFR5E-11 plugs and u asked for colder plugs to use for nitrous because your stock plugs are ZFR5F-11, the '5' n the part # is the heat range and they are both the same heat range. if you want to just go w/ stock copper plugs but two steps colder get ZFR7F (UNGAPPED) the '-11' in the part # is the gap size, w/ nitrous you will want to gap the plugs yourself at around .030-.035.

but i would go w/ bkr7e, yes the applications table says they are made for ashton martin but they are actually racing plugs. they come stock ungapped at .035 which is also a nice thing, but i regap them just a bit...
