Series 2 Neo spark plugs?

Its about time to replace my plugs, the mechanic put platinum plugs in last time it was serviced and they havent lasted very long at all. Its starting to miss on idle like it did last time the plugs were on there way out. They are NGK R PFR6G-11.

I dont want to put them back in cause they cost like $25 each and they have only lasted me around 10-15,000km

What do u suggest?

im using NGK iridium ix, but if you want to go for the best of the best, do what i have done to my cars in the past, go for this:

http://www.pulstar.com/

only reason i dont have them in my car is because i didnt have 130 bucks for all 6 when i needed them. :huh:

but next month, out go the iridium and in go the pulse's.

They work just as well and they are cheaper: NGK BCPR6ES and gap them at 0.8mm if you think your coils are struggling. Also look for tracking marks where the coils might be shorting and consider insulating them with tape or a spray (search for examples).

Will the NGK BCPR6ES go in my series 2. Do they come pre gapped to 0.8mm? if not how do u do it safely?

hello

+ 1 for NGK BPR6ES I can not believe the difference they made, mind you my plugs where pretty bad!! when you go to buy them dont tell them what they are for

because they will try and sell you something else, in there book the neo engine is supposed to have 1.1 gap.

I am still trying to get more info on that space saver, I have found that the new falcons do have a space saver and the rim size is 17inch but not sure on rolling diameter.

I brought NGK iridium tip plugs off ebay for about $14 each

stupid me didnt put them at 0.8mm gap and left them at 1.1mm

they are good but i do need to set them to 0.8mm due to a slight miss mid range

If your coil packs are in good condition then 1.1mm should be fine. Unless you are running big power/boost it should be fine and more to the point desirable to run the larger gap to provide the best combustion.

The stagea was running a 1.1mm gap with splitfires and 18psi with the GT-RS and no misfires. With the 2835ProS it is only running 16psi but making a bit more power still with no issues.

i do have a set of those yellow jacket coils fitted to the car but at about 5000rpm it has a bit of hesitation for about 500rpm then pulls really hard to the redline

very odd i think

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.

      Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
