Does changing the gap on the spart plug have any adverse effects on the motor at all? (besides the plug itself)

I've ran a 0.8mm gap using BCPR6E's since day one, the platnium 5's 1.1mm gap came out, copper 6's 0.8mm went in, felt exactly the same. Same fuel economy.

Would boost up and off I went for 150,000km's (210,000km's total) in 4.5yrs.

I had pretty much the same problem in 1 X R32GTST, 2 X R33GTS's, 1 X R34GTT and 1 X Stagea and fitting NGK copper plugs and gapping them as per the above fixed it in ALL of them.

Why look for the complicated answer before trying the simple and cheap ($20) solution first.

:huh: cheers :angry:

Really, haven't heard of same problems, same owner multiple cars before. I think it sounds like a good place to start to, ill regap them to .8 tonight... Right after i buy a new feeler gauge thing.. mine has only .4 and .6 left on it, stupid elements. Err to regap u just tap them on a brick or something right? Thats what ive done in the past, or will the iridiums disagree with my handling?
