i couldve got you splitfires for 550 delivered...

You could have said that earlier ya cheeky bugger... Luke_ENR34 has been discussing obtaining splitfires in several threads over the last few weeks...

I would've been keen for a set too, although i just installed a set of supersparks an hour ago...

I'm running 6's in mine.....wondering if I should be running 7's instead now.

I've heard some peeps go even colder to an 8 or 9 even, but I assumed they got more track time

Once over ~270rwkw step up to the 7's. 350rwkw then I'd look at the 8's but then your in to easy plug fouling territory.

I run the BKR7E's, most places can only get the BKR7E-11's so grab them and gap them down.

I have no issues with plug fouling poor starting or plug fouling when cold.

The 6's were coming out looking a tad hot for the power its making; the 7's look perfect. :laugh:

I get around 30,000km's out of mine but thats really pushing them. They start to look worn at 20,000km's but don't seem too cause problems (hard starting and the odd pop) until 30k.

so ,

i was opening my door of my car and i saw something shoot past , went out on to the foot path and it was a koala , so i ran inside and grabbed my dslr and chased after him (was quite funny , a koala running up the street and me chasing it)

anyways he climbed into a small tree up the corner so i took about 50 photos of him and here is one of em

they are bloody angry things hey, ppl over seas come here and get attacked by them coz they think their good to hold on to for a while hahahaha :laugh: silly non aussies :P

Joel, on the topic of NKG plugs, can u get them pre-gapped to 0.8mm or do they only come in 1.1

All plugs for example.

BCPR6E or BKR7E are pregapped to 0.8mm.

They can be had from some stores but often need to be ordered in.

You can grab the BCPR6E-11 or BKR7E-11 which are pregapped to ..... 1.1mm and then gap them down :laugh:

I prefer to grab the 0.8mm pregapped plugs as the strap appears to be slightly shorter so the gap is more consistent even at 0.8mm to what the 1.1's are.

In saying that I haven't noticed any difference between 0.8 and 1.1's gapped down to 0.8mm. Currently I'm running BKR7E-11 gapped down to 0.8mm's.

cheers Joel,

i have a pile of BCPR6E-11 sitting here on my desk. i know what you mean about the long strap... i'll gap em down and get em in my car this weekend (my plugs are pretty foul).

i'll just continue getting these instead of looking for pre-gapped ones

cheers for that

so I'm currently running the iridiums BCPR6EIX-11 at .8mm......to run 7's, do I have to run BKR's or do they make BCP's.......what's the difference?

wasn't asking the difference between coppers & iridiums.....the suffix "IX" denotes iridium.

I wanted to know why Cubes uses a different prefix when going colder in plugs.

looking at the NGK site it makes me think they suit different models?!

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
