Trouble Starting Car

[frozenwaffles]

hey guy, i just did a major service on my r33 and all was running just wonderful. i have had her tuned since putting on the new turbo (HKSgtrs). along with this i did the plugs to. i put in ngk BKR5ES-11. now i have been driving the car around for a week or so since being tuned and having the new plugs a nd turbo on and itr was tarting perfect, like almost immediatly...

but now i have to cranck her over for about 10-20 secs and put my foot down on the throttle. once she is strated she runs a little rough and then once it warms a little then it all calms down.

any ideas why this may have happened....???

this happned before when i first had my powerfc tuned and the tuner put new plugs in....

im thinking this may be plug related...???

i use bkr7e

never ever heard of them spark plugs...

if u have a turbo timer and u let it idle for 5 mins or so with the combination of wrong spark plug, could be fouling your plugs thus creating all them symptoms...

Next time ur at home and u try start the car n its doing that whole 10-20 sec thing, take one spark plug out and see if its fouled (covered in black dust looking stuff)

i just bought BKR6E plugs and i'll see how they go...thanks for the help.

6e or 7e?

[frozenwaffles]

6e's. i was using 5e's so i'll see how these go. if no good i'll shift another heat range...

ok so i changed the plugs. whe i pulled number 3 out it was all wet and black. never seen that before in my car...could be time for splitfires???
