I'm in Canada and OEM (NKG's) spark plugs from my local dealer are close to $300 a set of four..... two leading two trailing. The parts guy tells me these are for the new type of plugs for the 8's not available in the after-market yet. Is this a line of BS or what? If so what are the part #s so I can see if they truly not available in the after-market.
Any who works at a mazda dealer preferably in Canada who can answer this question that would be great. Oh! all post welcome not just a madza employee.
Thanks

 

hes bsing you, id kick the guy in the face and tell him never to speak again...

 

leading - RE7CL
trailing - RE9BT

 

I know those ones doser, but thanks for looking out for me! I think he was BS me as well but you never know and he just showed me the plugs never the box. A dead give-way I though!

 

There "were" some older style plugs, but NGK stop making them a LOT time ago(Cuz Mazda told them that the design sucked so they changed it, that was like 3-4 yrs ago)

so yea, the part guy pretty much "BS" you. All plugs today are the same from Factory or "so called aftermarket aka buying them from NGK" , its just different box.

 

So, it definitely BS. I'll order online and save a pile of dough, 1/3 to be exact, I guess I'll get new wires as well with all the $$$ I'll save.

Thanks everyone!

 

 

lololollololololololololololol They gonna try to sell you the new R3 By saying
"its got the new updated V-Tec motor, updated head, and lighter pistons for reliability!"

 

This is just a Post # Test. This is a test of the emergency broadcast system if this was a real emergency you would be directed to your nearest fall-out shelter.

Loved it!

Lately everyone seem to be screwing with my head!

 

Dave Woods Mazda parts guy was the original quote. Maybe I should him in the Good/Bad Guy Forum

 

Just ordered plugs and wires from the U.S. Should be here soon. back to 27 yipee and got to go!

Thanks

 

For the record, Amazon US has the cheapest rx-8 stock spark plug.

 

wow... thats amazing!

 

Man, I wish I could have somebody say that to me, so I can slap them in the face and walk out.

 

That's a thought, next I go in for parts from this stealership I'll check around first. Then I can go in and slap them in the face and walk out. Lolz

 

Even if you do buy them online I'd go to the dealer guy and seriously put him in his place..

That is just ******* ridiculous.. one thing is to overprice them terribly.. but then to lie and make you feel like you have no other choice.. is that not a form of extortion or something? ugh
