It tune up season for me so Im getting all 3 rides in shape. Whenever I can I try to buy NGK blue spark plug wires but I cant seem to find them anywhere. Dont they make them for our 3.4s? Its looking like Ill have to go with Bosch. If NGKs arent available, anyone running the Bosch and like em?

Don't buy the Bosch.

Lots of places sell the NGK.

Do a search on this: NGK (4412) TE66.

Buy from wherever you choose.
 
Dont care a lick about the pretty, but thanks guys!! Ill have to post a new thread soon about my recent Lexus LS430 addition to the family :)
 
You shoulda just stuck with new OE ones. I haven't see any aftermarket plug wires yet that don't pull apart when you go to change the plugs later.

Then you shouldnt buy cheap $hit.

Sorry, but Ive owned over 60 cars and motorcycles in my short time on this planet, and I stick to what has done well by me. I put NGK blue wires on all of my cars because they have always done well by me. People always want OE but dont realize that sometimes OE can either be improved upon or OE is just from another company, then branded by the OEM and marked up. If youve bought aftermarket wires that pulled apart, you bought crap. I dont buy crap, I buy the absolute best thats available for all my cars.

I currently own a Lexus LS430, a Honda S2000 and my T4r. I research the heck out of
everything I buy for them. I love my babies.

If you've had good luck with NGK wires, good for you!!! We're all happy!!! I work at a dealer and see what the fine aftermarket has to offer everyday. And it makes me money EVERYDAY! Some are good and some just look pretty. I'm sure NGK wires will outperform OE anyday. I'm just saying in the long run when he or whoever goes to change the plugs it's likely they'll pull apart. They just bake to the plug sitting down in the head. And the cute little packet of grease they come with just doesn't cut after 30k.
 
While were on this topic, what plugs do you guys run? Are those Denzo Iradium plugs any good or just a waste of money? My 4R is due for a tune up.
 
OEM spark plugs wires are the way to go. They aren't very expensive and come with all the clips and everything installed. I believe they are made by Denso. For plugs I would just stick with the OEM plugs you get at the dealer. Fairly cheap, gapped perfect and work great.

The OE plug wires are Sumitomo's. Toyota sells Denso, as far as I know but they were built with Sumitomos (they had the year stamped on the wire).

There is nothing wrong with NGK plugs--I've been using them for over 90K and they are OE just as much as Denso. Three of each went into all V6 3G 4Runners. The wires are great, too--I have 35K on those. I am sure Denso's are good, too--but why say they are the way to go over NGK's?

Lexus puts Denso Iridium in the LS430 as oem plugs and rates them for 120k miles. So I stick with iridium all the way. For the T4r I just picked up a set of NGK iridium plugs.
