anyone know the part number that i need for RB25DE? just want some cheap ones as im selling car soon and in the morning it stutters at low revs on cold engine, once it warms up it gets a little better..

any info is great,

thanks

The standard Nickel items are fine, NGK part number BCPR5ES-11 (or BKR5ES-11). The 5 is the heat range, 5 is most efficient on a stock engine, 6 is better for one that receives a regular thrashing and has mild mods (intake/exhaust).

Power gain from different spark plugs is negligible. Platinum’s are less conductive than nickel (i.e. worse) iridium’s are slightly more conductive, but your unlikely to notice the gain, perhaps equally better off with V spark nickels or something,

the most gain with spark plugs can be had by correctly indexing them, so they are all facing the intake ports (middle), you can do this by purchasing thin copper washers, to give you that half turn extra adjustment. some people have even managed it by buying a few packs of plugs and mixing and matching between holes (but copper would be best as it will squash as you tighten, so you can keep the correct tension).

I run indexed BCPR7ES (gapped at 0.75mm with splitfires) on my RB25DE+T with water + meth spray.

Probably find the best info here; http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Sp...gs-t104405.html

I've never worked with Nissan V6's, but I’d assume it would be the same story as the straight 6's.

Pretty much run what the turbo boys run but a heat range higher. When you change your spark plugs, you can tell if you’re in the right heat range by the discolouration on the thread, if its past 3 thread lines, you probably want a colder plug (test after fitting your 5's)

I used to have Indexed NGK BKR5EY-11's in my N/A RB25, had perfect burn and the plug wasn’t getting too hot.

I generally think your best with standard nickels (what people call coppers, but they are nickel coated, and all plugs have a copper core) and would get the best performance & cost efficiency replacing them more often, than spending 6 x as much on an iridium and replacing it less often. This obviously changes if you have tom pay someone to change them for you, in which case it might be more efficient getting longer lasting plugs, as the labour would cost the difference.

    • Yeah, I'm not interested in wetting the carpets, and I don't care about brown dirt/dust that lives deep in the pile or underneath. It's not like I crawl around on them in my birthday suit or eat dropped food off them (because there is never any open food in my car). The seats are alcantara (cheap Chinese imitation alcantara, to be sure!) with barely 1" of foam pad behind the surface. That's not getting wet either. Any car that I would be happy to get the interior wet, I would not care to put the effort into.
    • We have one that holds 2.8L of water. On floor carpet that hasn't been touched in 2 or 3 years, will take a minimum of 2 fills of the tank to do a bedroom, and that's going AROUND the bed.   In the cruiser, I used an ENTIRE 2.8L tank, just on the front passenger footwell. But it had some fungus growing, and had been full of mud from being used as a 4WD for many years. I can do that floor again, and it will still pull mud out. However, the water now only looks dirty, not pitch black and leaving full sludge in the bottom of the tank it sucks back into. Oh, and, this is about a $1500 unit.
    • This is mine, works a treat for the cars, suction is good, I use the Bissell clean and protect stuff I have found giving it a good spray and light scrub with the soft brush on the head of the nossle for carpet, and a rub with a microfibre for cloth seats and cloth door trims, prior to another quick spray before vacuuming it up works the best @GTSBoy You would surprised on what it gets out of carpet and seats that actually "look" clean, I recommend that you test drive yours when you have a little time to kill, then post pics of the muddy looking water that I believe you will find
    • I think even the "commercial" capacity ones that you would hire from supermarkets etc wouldn't have the capacity to do all that much in one go. I will go through half a dozen tanks of solution and dumps/rinses of the waste tank for one little 2 seat sofa. Or similar for one 6 footish rug. That's the price you pay for something small that only takes up a bit of cupboard space, instead of something that takes up the entire laundry cupboard or half the shed.
    • Someone needs to copy it, improve it aesthetically, make it DBW ready from day 0 and send it to the motherland Chynah for my relatives to cast it and mass produce it 😅
