Spark Plug & Brake Recommendation

hazkirby · 06-08-2017, 03:58 AM

Hi guys,

Looking for recommendations on spark plugs for the N52 engine?

In addition my discs are worn, so I need recommendations for replacement discs and pads?. I also plan to track my car 3 times a year (done one so far, now having vibrations when braking hard!) but also use it as a DD.

Thank you

I would go on the Euro cat parts website, they have like a 60% off promo code every day you can use. I would only use ngk plugs on BMW's as I and others have had issues with Bosch plugs and brembo oem disk and pads are good. Stay away from pagid.

I swear by NGK plugs. And I prefer Jurid discs. A bit more expensive, but the hubs don't rust, unlike most other makes...

I have 6 brand new unused spark plugs NGK PLZFR6A-11S (5987) for sale if you're interested.

I bought them for my N52 engine but then realised after checking the service history they'd been changed only 10k miles ago so need to sell them now. Let me know if you're interested, I'm asking £49 posted.

Pagid discs and Ferodo DS2500 pads, with Motul RBF 600 brake fluid. I have done 4 track days with no fade whatsoever. Just bought DS3000's for more stopping power!
