Hey guys,

I've recently just had to regap my current plugs in my rb25det to the .8mm mark to fix a misfiring problem I had because of air flow upgrades which has completely fixed the problem for now. However, I am thinking that I will be purchasing some NGK BKR5EIX-11 sparkies to fully replace these. Will I still need to regap these plugs down as well or not because of the better performance of them?

Cheers,

Dallas

The gap should go down as the boost level comes up, to a point.

Mine runs best at .8 @ 14lb, use to breakdown a far bit at .11 @ 14lb high rpm.

+1 for copper plugs, just change them at every service, cheap/easy and you always have a good plug, dont believe the hype for the plugs that they say last for 100,000k, they are good for the first 5,000 then average from then on.

There is a good thread in here about plugs, all about heat range and gap size.

You want BCPR6ES - the BKR plugs are slightly shorter or longer by approx 2mm (cant remember exactly)

The BCPR6ES are gapped to 0.8mm they are copper, they are cheaper and they work just the same.

If you really want to you can deposit the money I just saved you into my account.

Read the spark plug thread - all of it.

these plugs are what most rb25det owners use

    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
    • Hey all, Noticed I have a hole on top of which im guessing is my transfer case/gearbox. I can see it from the middle of my firewall looking down. S1 R33 gtr Any advice or can pinpoint what this is/caused this?
    • Looks like you were right on the T pattern! I did that and it's finally fixed! Thanks a bunch.
