Anything else worth doing at the same time? Car is at 98,500kms.
Thanks!

Add on an oil change and replace the Oil Filter Housing Gasket (OFHG) if there is any sign of oil in the area in the pic below.
OFHG leaks oil onto the serpentine belt below, which leads to it breaking and belt fragments in the engine
NGK plug are a great choice, I think the new ones are NGK 97968
Just go with BMW OEM (stock) coils unless you are planning big power
Makes sense to change the intake manifold gaskets if you are doing a walnut blast as the manifold has to come off anyway
These are not normally a problem, but easy to check and replace (just six oval rings) on the face of the intake manifold
