Step 1. Undo the clamps on either side of this U-Shaped hose, then remove the hose.

Step 2. Undo these 2 screws, it will allow you lift up the intake pipe giving you more room.

Step 3. Loosen the 2 adjustable clamps on the hose connecting to the plenum, also the other small one seen in the picture.

Step 4. Disconnect the loom plug (may vary in appearance). Then just move 2 disconnected looms off to the side. You don't have to remove the 2 circled screws.

Step 5. There are 8 allen screws to undo all the way along the plastic cover as circled below. Once you have removed them all you can then slide out the plastic cover.

Step 6. Once you have removed the plastic cover you'll see the lead pictured below, with 6 looms connecting to the top of each coilpack, undo the looms that connect to the top of each coilpack. Then remove the small screws that hold the length of cable in place and remove it.

Step 7. Now, at this stage you will see the top of each coil pack, I pulled out the whole cradle and coil pack as described next but you dont have to that. You can just remove the screws that hold each coil pack in. This how to pull it all out.

Unscrew the gold/bronze bolts that hold the coil pack cradles in place. There is about 6 or 7 of them. Once they are removed you can pullout the coilpacks and cradle to see the spark plugs underneath.

Step 8. Now that you can see inside, it is recommended that you spray some compressed air inside to clear/dislodge any crap that may fall into the combustion camber once you have taken out the spark plugs. Now remove the spark plugs and put in the new ones!

Step 9. Put it all back together.

had the plugs in mine done a few weeks ago. Used NGK iridiums to suit rb25det.

Took in for a tune the other day and had problems. Apparently I should have used NGK iridiums to suit rb20det as they run cooler. She runs nicely now and the plugs are cheaper!

anyone know if you just pull the coilpacks straight out once the two screws are removed?

seems like the pack is still attached to something underneath and i'm not game enough to put too much force into pulling it out without knowing.

Hey so which one should you use?

rb20 or rb25 sparks? should you also get it tuned after the installing the new sparks?

I love this tutorial.

Found it over a year ago, made it into word doco format.

Printed it off in colour and make sure it's around everytime i change em juts to be sure.

Thanks matey !

Awesome job!

Used the changing oil one for awhile but thats piiiss easy so don't need it now.

(but not easy if you've never done it before, which is where i was awhile back)

The best thing is, changin oil and spark plugs must be 80% of what a 'service' is and you never know exactly what they're doing........so get in there guys and do it yourself.

Would the author of this tutorial please add:

Loosen the plugs, BUT before removing them, blow the area thoroughly clean with compressed air.

Can't believe people still pull dirty plugs and wonder why they suddenly develop a miss after dislodging crap into the combustion chamber.

Regards.

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
