The search function is great when it finds exactly what I was searching for.

I inquired specifically about the NGK R7433-8, not the standard copper or the iridium.

My tuner gave a suggestion and I prefer an opinion from other English speaking enthusiasts before I drop $180 on a set.

NGK BCPR6ES is all you will need.

As posted by NYTSKY most users of this forum run the standard cobber plug but different heat ranges. I personally use a race plug and set my plugs up different (wont go into detail on the forum at the moment as its a race secret) but we have back to back dyno runs with just a plug change that shows an increase in power through the rev range in the race car :P

If your tuner recommends those plugs ask him why and what are the benefits/gains in doing so :P

I plan on asking him as I had my wife inquire what plugs I should use when she ordered more parts and set up for a tuning appointment.

With my limited Japanese and his limited English, it usually ends up with him saying, "more better". He doesn't give a crap where I buy them but his price is usually much less than others because I have already spent a few thousand at his shop in parts. I get a discount as I am a regular and his only gaijin customer.

He said any are good as long as they are the 8 series heat range.

Heat range 8 is way too cold for a street car. 7's would be as cold as i would go.

Also considering the weather in in Japan i would also not go over a 7 but again unless there is something your tuner knows hence the recommendation :starwars:

    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi
