Hi everybody. Anyways I wanted to know what would be the best spark plugs and wires for a 98 legacy gt. I'm sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong forum but I was interested in buying some and was wanting to know what was out there that was good. Only the best for my car. Know what I mean. Well, thanks for the help and I hope to get to know you all better. Later.

Aaron, where the heck have you been?! Answer your PM or call me! My number changed after I got back from the middle east, so email my government account. It's on the GAL.

I'd suggest going with Bosch wires and NGK copper plugs. A quick search turned up a lot of responses regarding platinum plugs, and they're not a good idea whatsoever.

On another note, what all have you done to your car so far?

nothing is really wrong with the Plat. plugs. The car came with them, I believe. They will last longer and be fine, it is just said that copper perform slightly better, but they don't last as long. Also, the Plats are quite a bit more expensive. Overally, I would agree and use NGK coppers and either OEM wires or Magnacore. Lots of people don't like the Magnacores. I have them and have had zero issues with them.

like gtwagon941 said, the platinum plugs lasts longer. from what i understand, 60k instead of 30k.

I've been happy with the wires that I got from NAPA for about $50, and they're supposedly the same OEM wires, but with different branding.

I used the Magnacore wires back in the day, awesome quality and very think insulation. Although you’ll never notice any difference in performance from them….
