You can buy the iridiums, or the normal copper spark plugs

iridium will last you a hell of a lot longer and burn your fuel better. Copper will have to be replaced more ofter if your after a healthy engine.

It all depends on whether you are willing to change the plugs 3 extra times per 40k.

The copper bcpr6es-11's perform as well as the iridium or platinum for less than a quarter of the price, it's just that the copper life span is closer to 10k rather than 40k.

Personally, i'd slap in a set of iridiums or platinums as changing the plugs is a bit of a pain if you a have all the stock gear on the car. Also if you are just going to drive it and not play too much.

Iridiums would be the go. Most iridiums arent long life like platinum plugs but are longer than copper.

Go to your local Toyota dealer and get them to look up in their Denso catalogue and cross reference a set of iridiums, about $19ea.

    • I remember test driving this car at Odaiba. All the controls are very light so it's good for commuting. I don't think a 1.2L turbo would make sense in the US though, you would be constantly deep in the boost in highway cruising. 
    • As the Bogan Cruise Ship has nothing wrong with it, and is perfect the way it is, I have decided to fix that issue, nothing major, just a little tidy up and upgrade some parts that don't really need to be upgraded  1. Upgrade the interchiller, basically another fancy pants modern and efficient condenser, a larger reservoir (current one only holds about 500ml) and a better pump (the current pump has a little rattle, so......while I'm in there.....) 2. Move the battery to the boot so I can use that real-estate to fit in a nice big reservoir where the battery currently is As for a new car, I'm holding off buying one for a few reasons: 1. Not enough garage space for another nice car, yes....I consider the Bogan Cruise Ship a nice car that needs a roof over its head, which leads to point 2 2. I'm buying a joint down the south coast next year, hopefully I can find a joint with a nice big double garage that I can get a car lift in, or, it has a massive shed for lots of cars, and a lift (I really really want a car lift) 3. I cannot decide what I want, a new freshness with all the mod cons, or a fairly old thing that I can play with when I'm bored (old as in steel bumper) In other news, there's a light at the end of the tunnel, and it isn't a train coming to run me over  Not that I'm counting

    • Yes 116PS... I don't want to sound like a Toyota PR employee but it goes way better than the figures would suggest. Typical Toyota understating the performance. I'd say it at least had 130PS! 😅 Seriously though my son will be going for his licence in 2026 and it's a good manual car he can learn on without getting in too much trouble, and after that he will inherit it.
