Give the 7's or 8's a hard run on the dyno then pull them out to see if they are too hot or too cool.

I've in my motor copper 6's are good up until around 250rwkw then up to 300rwkw 7's past that 8's.

Leaning out the cold start enrichment (of which u can do a fair bit from default pfc values) also helps prevent the plugs fouling on short trips. Tweaking cold start enrichment etc is the difference between leaving the car with a tuner for 3days with a $600 tune vs a quick tune for $300-$400. Or fiddling yourself leaning it out every cold start until you experience driveability issues.

380rwhp I'd run 7's. BCPR7ES @ 0.8mm

I've also ran resisted and non-resisted at around 400rwhp - no difference that the dyno or I could notice. Both plugs required a gap of 0.8mm with std nissan coils.

    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
    • If there's oil in with the clutch, I hope it finds its way out even if that hole has a cover/grommet 😛 I don't want oil near my cars clutch! 😛 Interested to hear the answer about covering it, I'm assuming a bung for a gearbox from another car that has a grommet to suit.
