GSL-SE Spark Plugs
I'm wondering which plugs would be the best for my car. The motor is bone stock but I am running the MSD Blaster II coils. The wires will be the NGK wires. I was thinking about getting the ngk power cable wires but they seem hard to find.
Should I run the stock BR8EQ-14 plugs or is there something better?

Don't hate me for this one, but I'm using the Autolite 2526 plugs.
They seem ok. I had some 'old' NGK's in my 12a. All I can say is that my pre-silencer has some holes in it and I'm noticing less backfiring.

you were getting the backfiring because the plugs were old. plugs need to be changed often. i change mine every two years or 12 thoushand miles or less if i see wear. a lot of mixed reviews here from autolite plugs. one member claims to have lost an engine from them a few years back. i personally stick with th eNGK plug that came with the car and thats reccomended for the engine. autolites will work but are a cheap alternative and will not last reliably in a rotary.

the autolite plugs aren't so hot for a stock ignition, they run a BIG and inconsistent gap (measure 4 if you're lucky 2 will match)
they do have an application in a non stock situation, when you're using a CDI (MSD or other), the MSD will fire a big gapped plug.

so they do have a place, i ran them on the P port initially, but i would not use them on a stock ignition

well shoot, I looked it up on the NGK website awhile back and that was not the picture I saw. YES get those PLUGS. those are good ones. Now that I know where to get them, guess what I'm going to do. Just want to say sorry for the miss information. Thank-you for the correction.
