Legacy R30 Spark Plugs
Hey all... my daily driver is an 02 Legacy R30 wagon.. great car too.
Anyhoo; it's in for a service (140K Kms) and I enquired about having the plugs done. The factory units are an Iridium [spelling?] plug and bloody expensive!! I was quoted $65 NZD each!! plus abt 1.5hrs labour to fit. My question, what's the difference between platinum and iridium plugs, any pros/cons? Is it a simple enough job that I could DIY?? Cheers |

Re: Legacy R30 Spark Plugs
i went with the E3 spark plugs in my SVX and there was a noticeable difference in power...i think they range $4-$8 a spark plug depending on where you buy them idk what that is in NZD sorry

Re: Legacy R30 Spark Plugs
What kind of engine does that have? Sorry- I couldn't find that info in my own research. Is it an EJ25 4 cyl, EZ30 6 cyl, or ??? I changed the spark plugs on my US 04 Legacy L wagon with the EJ25 a few months ago and it was quite easy- much more so than on an SVX.
