I only had the plugs done about 6 months ago but Im not sure what they were gapped to as my garage did them n not me - I think that I'll have them out at the weekend and check their condition and gaps (0.7 yeah?) I think they may have been pfr7b's but cant remember - would that cause a problem??

MY? Mods?

PFR-6B's for a standard car, although 7-B's should be fine.

The car is an MY95 - WRX import.
Not many mods :
HKS panel filter
2.5" cat back exhaust
Eprom chip (same as polar performance one I think)
VTA dump valve
Uprated Coil packs

The rest is cosmetic following an argument with a Dear and faceliting the car.
