Default NGK BKR7E on a stock DC4 (99LS)

I have a 99 integra, with no engine modifications. My friend told me that BKR7E plugs will work fine w/ no problems on it, Just wanted to check opinions? I would prefer not to run into any issues. I know that the stock LS plugs are Z5F5R's and some people w/ nitrous setups (after doing searches) uses BKR7E's, but I just wanted to make sure. Any input would be appreciated, thanks.

just a little clarification here but an LS is a DC4, not DC2.

whoops, thanks for the clarification. my past 6 cars were nissan 240sx's and a Volkswagen after that, so I'm not very familiar with honda/acuras. Thanks again.

Those plugs will foul on a stock motor. There is no reason you should be putting those in your car. Use the stock ones unless you have a good reason for the colder plug.

thanks, I don't have a good reason other than my spark plugs needed to be replaced, and my friend who works at a local shop and just gave me those to put in, he said they'll be fine. I'll go get a different set as soon as I can.

Agreed....since your engine has no modifications, stick with the stock plug

They will not foul, they run perfectly fine.
