4Motion Spark Plugs

[gerhard]

Hey guys,

Went out today to suss out some of the NGK plugs PZFR5D-11 and Supercheap where quite good on price. I am getting a full set for $122.89.

I was dreading buying overseas for the hassle but thats not to bad. Now to get them installed....

I have purchased parts from USA for Jackaroo and Mazda 121, for years, and I have no idea where you get the idea it's a hassle???

E.G.
Isuzu VSS - $AU660.00, $US50.00
Isuzu O2 sensor - $AU640, $US57.00
Isuzu Timing Belt kit, water pump, serpentine belt, auto filter kit - $AU?????, $US260
Mazda water temp sensor - $AU132.00, $US18.00

Freight = quite expensive but really irrelevant, delivery faster than the proverbial speeding bullet with USPS tracking.

It's so easy, you don't even need to get off your bum !!


Now that our dollar has turned to crap, it's a lot less tempting to go that way, but always worth a price check

True, and have you noticed it sometimes seems quicker to get stuff from overseas than it is for some local companies to get a part up from Melbourne to Canberra, for instance.

Ha ill have to keep my eyes open as everyone I have delt with in the past have been a pain ( sports stores etc not just car goods ) with things going missing and what not from overseas. I have been taking note of recommended suppliers though.

I got charged nearly $240.00 for spark plugs for the 4mo from Garry Cricks when it was serviced. I bought my last set from Supercheap when they had a sale. Cost me just under $108.00. They were exactly the same NGK plug.

i got my 6 plugs from ECStuning... about US$12 each... that was when the AU$ was 0.93, and frieght was about $30 so all up around $100

I can do a group buy on NGK spark plugs for $9+gst if we buy 100.
Let me know if anyone is interested.

I'd take six to suit a 2003 V6 4Motion...

I'd get six too. As people have already said on other threads - I think it is the PZFR5D-11 model that we need for the 4motion.

Yeah it is, I just had my NGK's put in. Heaps better.
