Where do you live? I bought my TR55'* at 3 different local auto parts stores, and I order my TR6'* now from Napa. Local store, but the website should work, too. www.napaonline.com I think, or PM Kennginn.

We have napa stores around here, and should i go with the iridiums? worth the extra cost or just stick with regular? and also should i get new wires and O2 sensor while im at it?

If it'* in the budget, do wires. Get the Taylor Spiro Pro'* from www.grandprixstore.com , and an AC Delco O2 sensor from the dealer or www.gmpartsdirect.com (part numbers in Techinfo).

SC cars seem to prefer copper plugs, but I've never run irridiums. I'd stick with the Copper V-Power plug design, personally, but it'* your call

Same-same. Identical drivetrains.

You can get the V-Power NGKs for under $2.00 at Napa. Murray'* gets about $4.50 each for them! Napa typically doesn't stock them, but they can get them same day from their warehouse.
