Hey ppls,

can anyone clear the confusion n give me the right answer. My R34 GT-T running around 12psi(goin in for a tune soon) is misfiring occasionaly. Looking for a new set of plugs as its currently running std plugs i believe. Im after the NGK coppers since most have said that the Iridiums r not really worth the $ when u do the change urself n add the cost up. Is the NGK BKR6E the one? I think this is pre-gapped at 0.8 or do i need a 0.7? Is this the right heat range or do i require a 7 or something colder?

Ive done the searches, read the threads n even asked a question there myself but it seems like there's no conclusive answer. In fact a no. of ppl came out more confused than before. :happy: There also seems to be alot more talk about the RD25DET there but im not sure if the RB25NEO requires different plugs. On the NGK site closest listing was the PFR5G-11(something different again) for the GTR. Dont kno if its a R32, 33 or 34. This is pre-gapped at 1.1 n i understand u shouldn't really try n re-gap it down to 0.8 as it could damage the tip and the tip is also no longer parallel.

Just in case anyone needs to know tho i doubt it, mods r Power FC & BC kit, FMIC, turbobak with split, pod, BOV.

Cheers guys n gals.

dunno if that link will work.

Your Vehicle:

8/1998 - 10/2001 NISSAN STAGEA 2500 TURBO RB25DET

Spark Plug Part No.

Recommended Plug PFR6G-11

Iridium Option BKR6EIX-11

I noticed there was no R34 GTT so I went to the Stagea with the NEO engine.

That is the stock (1.1mm) gap, sorry I don't know the number for the 0.8mm ones.

Coppers can be easily regapped to 0.8 from 1.1mm. Iridiums can be too but just need to be more careful. No tapping it on concrete to gap it down.

Yes at 12psi you will need 0.8 gap. If you have to go lower to stop misfiring there is something else wrong.

Thanks guys.

I had another look on the NGK site, listed under Nissan Imports is a R34 but only the RB26 motor, plug required for that is the PFR6A-11, couldn't find a Stagea??

Can u just re-gap them with a set of pliers?

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
