a full set of spark plugs of $17??? reali? thats wot im talking about!!! :(

So i have a R33 GTST series to and i need to change the spark plugs, what brand / model should i ask for?? So i can just walk into a store in adelaide and say i want this......

Yep Buddy... Motor Traders, Edwardstown. BCPR6E. Check the gap as 'sometimes' they can vary a touch.

Last time I bought a set they charged $2.80 each.

Yeah, there dirt cheap :( Although I use the non-resistive type. Not sure if it makes much of a difference ?

They are an NGK plug. I think the S on the end is something to do with tip type ?

Better to buy the ones without the -11 on the end (1.1mm gap), cause otherwise you have to re-gap them. When they don't have a number the gap is 0.8mm

I THOUGHT THE GAPPING SHOULD BE 0.8mm?

hey guys - i think im going to return these champion ones i got ... hopefully they will let me . im after a gap of 0.8 - so which nkg copper plugs am i after? the model number , if any one has the correct info for the specs i need? and the correct heat rating ?

could anyone genuinely tell me that the slight bump i have in idle is because of these plugs? never had it before...

cheers

I notice an ever so slight roughness or bump as you call it in idle with the 0.8mm gapped plugs. BUT its only ever ever so slight.

1.1mm its baby smooth. 0.9mm which I'm running now appears to be near perfect and ignition doesn't break down.

0.6mm idle is horrid.

0.6mm idle is horrid.

hahaha its not THAT bad .. i think - will swap mine over tomorrow and see what it does

had mine at 0.6 to counter the old std coils - but got splitfires in now and did swap to the new ones i got... yet

    • Seems to be the case mate , still an OK price for a grey import.
    • I’m interested in the carbon diffuser fins and Toshiba MFD screen replacement if they’re still available.
    • @GTSBoy yeah i know it was not the "great" idea but it is and option...but i think i will stay on no BoV rather then trying to make it work with "half" this and that. But that GReddy FV2 is cool...i like that you can make it like stock if you want (and have/make the custom pipes) For other thanks! it was alot of information. But for the sound...a dont rly "like" both of them...specialy if they are loud...but if i "must" choose i would rather have little whooosh rather than sutututu with no BoV....BUT that is what is i gonna get. So for the all info i gather. In my case:  No BoV is not that bad cuz it is stock...and iam used to put N/clutch right after rpms are around 1000 so it should be ok...just need to avoid "big" drops. But i do not have the engine in the car so i do not really know how "bad" or good it is. But as i had that little test drive it looked ok. The atmo BoV should be worse car would dump to much fuel specialy between the shifts...so without proper tune/ECU i dont want that. BUT with that...car should drive ok with no problems right? (i do like there is less piping wih this solution) 🙂 
    • Usually an RB20 won't stay in closed loop idle anyway. The O2 sensor gets too cold, stops swinging.
    • They aren't, but it depends on what interests you about an R32-R34. If it's the front engine I6 turbo that tunes well with a manual transmission an E92 335i 6MT is so incredibly cheap. You can get a super clean one for 20-25k USD tops. Put an LSD in it, tune it, have fun with it. If it's the general idea of AWD + turbo and a manual transmission the 996 Turbo is absolutely much more expensive, it's less practical but it's also basically a complete track-ready car from the factory. At least the Mezger doesn't have heaps of oil control issues. And in the US the 996 Turbo and R33 GTR are roughly the same price these days. 996 maybe a bit more now that the hype has abated for old Skylines here.
