Your Nissan Parts desk can get them. I can try and price them out for you at my dealership. They run about $80 or so a pack. I think <a href="www.nopionline.com" target='_blank'>www.nopionline.com</a> has them. Also try a local performance store.

I think that most NA applications don't require a stronger ignition setup than stock.  NGK (or stock whatever) work just fine, and I've tried lots of wires on my other cars.  They gave me nothing but headaches with EMI, or too much suppression to make timing readings difficult.

NGK does make a very nice Ultra Silicon sparkplug wire set which helps suppress EMI without the need of a thicker silicon jacket.  Something to do with the way the coils are wound, but they're not sold in North America.

Pep Boys carry Borg Warner.  Don't know how they'll work in your car.  I would think Bosch would work better.

Wow, I'm surprised no one has heard of Borg-Warner.
Have you guys heard of the "KKK" or "K3" line of turbos? ... that's borg-warner right there.  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/satisfied.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':satisfied:'>  Make a good product, even if they're not as well-known w/ the tuner community as Garrett or Mitsu. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>
I don't know If I'd get their spark plug wires, but turbos? --Definitely.
