yep the iridiums was the one very expensive, i used to own r34 and getting those will cost me 120++ but now i drive a s14a so i guess it still around 80-90 may be? werent it is still expensive? any other option or recommendation where can i get em?

Hey mate

If you're usuing copper they're only 4.50 each, 6 is around $30

If you change them every 20000 kms or 3 months it's really not that much, if you're having issues with them try gapping them to .8 if you're not alreadyndoing that

Cheers for that bro, but I am little fussy about my car? Is copper better than ngk? I won't mind go for that if they have the same quality!

ngk is the brand. they made coppers, platinums and iridiums. coppers give the best spark of all but they dont last as long as platinums and iridiums.

for a sr20 go buy a set of coppers, should be less than $20

You don't bother wasting money on iridiums or platinums on a modified import. Put coppers in and change them a few times a year. Will be cheaper overall and the car will run better with constantly having fresh plugs in there (as opposed to fouled up platinums/iridums).

use bcpr6es

bkr6e if you want v grooves

joel, it depends on the condition of your coilpacks mainly but if they're standard you'll probably have to gap them down to avoid spark blowing out. if you dont wanna experiment too much just gap them to .8 and see how they go.

They will work on both R33 GTS-T and R32 GT-R? Same plugs?

    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
