Spark plugs & Wires
Anyone know of a good brand of spark plugs and wires for our mazda 3's. I know there are a lot of spark plugs and wires out there but all the newer kinds I haven't found that fit the 3. Any information is appreciated.

you're ready to change your plugs and wires?? dang! how many miles do you have on it.
p.s. Just get OEM wires and NGK plugs. The stock ignition system has been shown to easily handle 500whp. there is no such thing as "performance" wires anymore.

whatever plug is stock for your car. I don't know the part number. Engineers spend millions of dollars tuning and testing the car for the proper plugs and octane and things like that. Switching it out for more "performance" won't happen. Just run what they gave you originally.

Actually if you look closely to your engine, you would have noticed that their isn't any spark plug wires. They now simply put a "coil pack" on top of each spark plugs for maximum performance. There isn't a way to make it more better than that!
As for plugs I would simply run what Mazda recommend which is more likely a very decent plug.
