How to change the spark plugs?

Since I'm planning on installing Hydrazine's new Iso Thermal gasket between the lower plenum and the intake, my G35 engine will be in the state of the included pic. I figure this would be the ideal time to change the spark plugs. Does anyone know how this is done? I know we have "coil over plug" technology. Do I simply disconnect the coil and then remove the plug?

Aren't the stock plugs food for 100,000 miles? I know they were on my accord V6.

There's a little more to it if you want to do it right. The step by step procedure can be found in the Summer 05 Issue of Sport Z Magazine. An in-lb torque wrench is highly recommended.

I have the inch/pounds torque wrench. My sedan has 68,000 miles on her. No reason to wait until 100K, why not do it now?

OK, so I am in the process of ordering the Summer 2005 issue of Sports Z Magazine. It will be some time before I recieve it. Can anyone shed some light on the "proper method"? Please.......
