Default Denso Iridium Spark Plugs (6)

I've got some Denso Iridium Spark Plugs, they are lightly used (roughly 6k miles), I swapped them out for a different heat range.

Part number on these is a Ngk 6988 or BKR7EIX-11

As I'm sure your aware these plugs are $50 a set new (for 6), I'll let these go for $15 shipped to your door including paypal fees.

These plugs are one heat range colder than the part number you listed, these would also be considered performance plugs in comparison to long life plugs. The SK range has .7mm electrode while the BK series has a .4mm electrode. From what I gather .7mm would last longer but .4mm provides less resistance for a better spark.

If you have some mods to your car (intake, exhaust etc...) and you frequently drive aggressively then you could benefit by going a step colder on plugs.

These spark plugs are not really designed for any model of lexus vehicles. They are one step colder plugs than stock. I run this on my 2001 GS300 that's been supercharged. These work well with boosted cars.

Sorry for the late reply guys.

Let me elaborate on what Alexus300 was saying, I wouldn't use the term "not designed" regarding the plugs as they ARE designed for this application. The difference between these plugs and the stock plugs is that these are one step colder.

By being one step colder they help prevent pre-ignition etc...which can be caused by hard driving in hot weather, forced induction etc.. These plugs would be a good replacement for someone who drives their car "hard" that lives in a warm climate.

So in closing, these are "designed" for the 2jz but they aren't the factory specified heat range, then again, the factory heat range isn't specified for intake, exhaust, headers etc....so if you have mods and drive hard, these would work fine for you and would probably work fine even if you didn't drive hard.
