I heard to use the cheap regular spark plugs on my e30. Anybody hear anything else like iridium or platinum ones?

Platiunum plugs are actually cheaper here than the coppers. That tells you how much platinum is actually in one of those plugs. The metal Platinum is way more expensive than copper.
Use the stock coppers on the 325i's and the stock silvers on the ETAs and you'll be happy.
