Spark Plugs
So i've been digging around and most of the info I can find is pretty old. Trying to find some spark plugs for my 2013 BRZ. From what I can tell OEM part numbers are:
Subaru: 22401AA801 Toyota: SU003-04931 Also sounds like they are manufactured by Denso, and the cheapest I can find from a dealer is $13-14 plus shipping (~$10). On Advanced Auto they have a Denso plug (SK20HR11 P#3421) that says it fits and looks right. This is $10 and no shipping which means I can go pick up the part today and get them put in. So lots of upside here. These carry different part numbers, but all being Denso are they the same thing? The Advanced site says they are "Long Life OE Performance", but not that they are actual OEM. Not sure if Denso may create a sub-par plug for Advanced and a premium plug for Subaru/Toyota. If so I don't mind paying a few extra bucks for it. But if I can save $22-$26 and do the work today I'd love to. Thoughts?

A big factor is multiple day shipping vs picking up in an hour and getting the work done today. Local dealer is closer to $20 each and I’m not giving a dime to them with their reputation anyway.

with all the issues with known counterfeit plugs, i just got my replacements from the local toyota dealer.
the plugs are hard enough to reach, it's not worth skimping on cheap plugs to need to do it again sooner than i need to.

Dude just spend the extra $30 and get the right parts, these engines are weird, no need to give them any reason to act up.
