Hello,
Friend has a 2004 Nissan Frontier that needs spark plugs, wires, a new cap and rotor and oil. This truck is new to my friend and I and good brand and type of parts to go with would point us in the right direction for fixing up this truck.

Thanks,
Jeremy

ND or NGK platinum is all i run in any vehicle The NGK are more common but the ND nippon denso or just denso to me are the best, ran them for yrs in 2 stroke dirt bikes and they hardly ever fouled, and older dirtbike 2 strokes that is not an easy task LOL

Oh ran them in my 300ZX twin turbo that was boosting above stock boost and they lasted 60-70 thousand miles, and with a turbo that says it all, at the temps they run, run stock temp range platinum and you will be happy.

I am running E3 spark plugs in my hb. I love those freakin things. You can tell an obvious difference. They are a little expensive at $6 each, but for the improved gas mileage and torque, its the best $24 improvement I can think of.

Unless he has some specific reason to change... I'd go with factory parts for anything ignition related in a Nissan. The spark plugs can be purchased pretty much anywhere - Nissan gets them from NGK - but the rest of it needs to come from Nissan. The spark plug numbers should be in the owner's manual... I think they're PFR5G-11, but I don't remember for sure.
