why?
NGK plugs, are NGK plugs. the only difference is that the rotary shop will charge more for them.

Hey all!Finally im getting my FD on Tuesday morning.Ive allready test drove it and took it to the nearest rotary shop in Monroe Mi,called Banzai Racing.Its checked out great!Thanks for telling me about that Rotay Shop MichRX7!I thought I would need to go out of state and that got me a little upset until you gave me that info.Sorry I dont have more pics except for in my avatar,as soon as I recieve the FD I will post up pics.Now I will be at meets and ****!Here is a little about my FD....
Royal Blue 1995 Touring w/black interior
65,000 miles and a new 13B RE Cosmo motor installed just 2 months ago.Bone Stock except for Apexi GT Spec
exhaust.Has 3 piece 18" Nitche Pulteks and Nitto tires.
The cost is $19,250.
I have a couple Q's I would like to ask you people.........
1)How do I break in this new engine?
2)What should my next upgrades be?
3)Should I perform some sort of fuel upgrade even though there is only one performance upgrade?
Thanks for your help!
P.S - Anyone with 18 inch Andrew Racing Fs,Blitz Technospeed Z1s or Enkei Aegis rims I will be willing to trade,reason due to weight.

Oh yeah, and I could get spark plugs at the autozone in Wilmington, they had a bunch on stock.
I am 1 of 2 FD's in my side of town. I guess it would be pointless for them to even stock them. However I might be all wrong because the Rx-8 just came out and stores might have started stocking them again

So I would have to order the RE end plates from Japan?Im not going to mod this car at all for about a year 1/2.Im gonna get used to the power it has now once shes broken in,I wont put the gas pedal to the floor until then.Im definatlly not going to blow the motor anytime soon so im not worried about it that much untill it happens.

Another fd which will be destroyed by a dumbass teenager that speaks ebonics thnking he can just grab and go.
Knowing nothing about a 3rd gen.wow.that is crazy.The reason ppl rip your head is cause you give advice to ppl on rotaries and you just proved a point that you didnt know the RE-cosmo doesnt come stock.Then you are wanting to post about a fast and furious body kit too.dear god.how about learn a little before you buy an fd. and if your tight on cash then after buying then dont buy it.it is an expensive maintenance car. well live and learn.he'll buy it and it will either be crashed or blown up in a couple months.
And your new post will be i tried to to do 9k rpms and i heard a clunking noise.
