Could anyone tell me where I can get a narrow wall spark plug tool to fit NGK plugs in a S14 engine?

What size do I need (I think that it is 18mm)?

I have the BMW spark plug socket (11/16" = 17.5mm) for the original Bosch plugs but that doesn't fit (It's too small).

Try pacerpete on here, he may have one

Well they sell for about £100 on ebay, best to buy a motor bike spark plus spanner and there is a thread on s14.net about alternatives

I've got a spare one I am going to put on ebay!
Never realised that NGK plugs have different spanner size! Why don't you use the Bosch plugs if you don't mind me asking? Not very expensive at GSF

I believe that that is for the original tool box spark plug tool.

I have a tool for the original plugs but NGK's are fitted at the moment and I don't have a narrow wall too for them (18mm I believe).

I remembered the s14.net thread but the site has been down for a few days so I can't get to it!

What, a spare 18mm narrow wall spark plug socket or a spare original toolkit spark plug tool?

I will be using Bosch or Champion but I have to get the NGK s out first!!!

Oh I see!

I have a original BMW spark plug spanner on my shelf.

Uwe, thanks for the kind offer but I don't really need the original BMW one.
