Thanks for all yours advice guys. Since people have different opinions on which spark plugs should be used on the T. I just chose one which is the NGK PFR6B platinum come pregaped at 0.8 mm and it works perfectly on my car. No more rough idle, smooth acceleration (I was worry about the coil pack at the start but my coil packs seem to be OK for now).

The reason I stick with NGK platinum is even it's a bit expensive (I've paid $130 for six), I hope it lasts longer than the factory copper ones (It took me nearly 2 hrs to change the spark plugs so I don't want to do it often). I also checked the Denso ones on ebay ($95 for 6 on ebay), but since my car was so bad, so I don't want to wait over the weekend for the Denso plugs to be post. I haven't used Denso plugs before so can't tell which one is better, but NGK is pretty good to me.

Does anyone know the differences between Irridium and Platinum Spark Plugs? Which ones is better and last longer?

Someone from this forum said that even platinum spark plugs would only last for 20000kms on modded T, is this correct? I'll see, if that's the case, I'll change to the normal copper ones and change everytime I do service. It's cheaper that way.

Once again. Thank you. I found this forum is very useful. Since joining this forum, I've never bring my car to mechanic to check for problems. You guys gave me spot on suggestions to fix my problems. Awesome.

Yeah iridium plugs last longer but I have had my PFR6Bs in for 2 years and have had no problems. Have done about 30,000ks and all seems to be good with no surging or missing under load etc with 307rwkw. You will have no problems with those plugs mate.
