Please start by reading your owner's manual, then the FSM, then the RSB, then the pervioius posts on this board by Q45tech.

Thereby many of your questions will be answered.

You're right of course, but you could've just said "NGK" or "Call Infiniti of Scottsdale and they won't steer you wrong." Sure would make the new guy seem more welcome.

Sorry, i was almost certain this stuff was covered before but to me the searh function isnt that great. I have a hard time trying to search anything on this board.

I was wondering if copper ones might be better. I think i read somewhere back when i had a B13 SE-R that nothing conducts electricity better than copper. and that the only drawback is that the copper plugs have to be replaced more often. i think every 10k or something. is this true?

Nah. The Q45 is top of the line all the way. Use the double platnium. It's very picky.

I would also stick with factory plug,proven to last over 100,000 miles in this application,and considering the labor to change them,thats a good thing!Do the valve cover gaskets at the same time and be done in that area for quite awhile.

A new acronym every week? RSB?

Just curious, but what sort of word is "pervioious"?

Guffaw.

Seriously though, Viruz, go with the NGK platinum. Best money you'll ever spend.
