Are these equal to the bcp7res plugs? I want to give them a go as I heard they are better than regular plugs. I'll check my shop if they stock then. Repco is the biggest rip off. They want more than 5 dollars per bcp7res. I get 6 for 21

I was running bcp7res and i recently replaced them with bcp6res and the car doesnt feel responsive down low. it actually feels laggy and sluggish however it revs all the way to redline.

My car is making 256kw atw and i run splitfire coils, through trial and error i have found a happy medium gap of 9.5 on any ngk plug i use, this gap provides me with smooth revving all the way to redline. this is the biggest gap i can run without any misfires. I have run the BKr7e v grooves in the past and these definatelty felt the best alround. Problem is i cant find them anywhere.

I think i made a mistake in running a 6 heat range as the 7s seem to perform much better

Any opinions?

All good guys , Repco have them on the shelf

thanks for your help

How much a piece? I'm definitely going to give these a shot. I would love to try a larger gap but honestly, the pain and f**king hassle of removing the plugs, adjusting gap, running high boost and checking for miss well.... a pain in the ass lol. Next set ill try a .9 gap from my .8 and see how I go. Ill pull as much timing from my tune and run it incase it decides to miss it should be cool enough not to det. Yes my car detonates on high boost if it misfires(too much compression maybe?)

      Nah, they'll do it without a receipt, tell em roughly when it was, that it was cash, youll likely only get store credit, but that gets you some dollars towards the newer better shovel, or other item you need/want later.   Still take it back and have a crack at returning it.

      Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.

      That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!

      Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)

      Was that deliberate?
