NZ Sparkplugs rip off from BNT

seems like everyone is sourcing spark plugs elsewhere, and i just found out why..

repco & BNT are both charging $300 incl gst for a set. i dont even think they are special plugs just the basic NGK replacement.


seen a couple listings on trademe for $150 a set of laser iridium would this be suitable to use?

Bought plugs from the same guy, they work alright and seem to be authentic.

how were you plugs when you swapped them out, did you notice any difference?

Actually I managed to snap one when checking them, the plugs in there didnt look too old so no real difference, had a massive difference when I replaced the ignition coils on the other hand.
