So,, It dawned on me that I havent changed out my spark plugs EVER and Im going on 77,000 miles.. Sooo I figured I would get me some good ones.. What all does everyone recommend? I found this thread over on mazda6club that linked over to sparkplugs.com and it gives a list of spark plugs that would work on my car... Which of these would any of you recommend that I get? Im not looking for a plug that will be long lasting but maybe more for one that is a performance type of plug.. And if there are any other kinds out there thats not in this list that you would recommend then let me know about them also.. Thanks guys

Those are not going to be any better than what you already have.

Magnecor Spark Plug Wires has one for the 02-04 mazda 6. I don't know why they wouldn't work on yours. That is what I have on my car and I really like them. I have no radio problems.
