Default What spark plugs and motor oil?
Ok well this will be my first setup on my d16y7. I am curious what spark plugs to go with like the part number that I can ask for when i go into advanced auto and what gap is a good gap to gap them at. I am also curious what motor oil you guys are using. I like in MA if that makes a difference and it gets quite cold up here. Thanks in advance

NGKs you dont have to worry about gap they are pre-gapped for you and Mobil 1 synthetic for oil. Go with copper plugs they are made more for performace whereas all these new ones like platinum and ---- are made for longevity.
