hey guys

the coil packs seem to be stuck in ??

i tried pulling them out with a tiny bit of force, not game enough to use more force.

for some reason they dont seem to want to come out

anyone have the same issue

would also like the answer to this as im trying to change mine this weekend

cheers

I just changed mine after reading this thread, very helpful!

You'll need a 16mm deep socket for the spark plugs, a 3" or more extension will help out as well.

well changed them yesterday, everthying was going sweet untill i overtightned one and cracked the ceramic. but after driving around everywhere trying to find iridiums was a PITA. then getting someone to gap to .8 all good now. just a quick question i bought BCPR5EIX-11 gapped to .8mm now everywhere i went asking for one they all told me i shouldnt be running them gapped to .8 bla bla bla 1.1 is sufficient. what you guys reckon?

Great post... what plugs are people suggesting for our stagea's?

What I have found looking around so far:

BCPR5EIX-11

NGK iridiums to suit rb20det

Spark Plugs - NGK BCPR7ES (copper, gapped to 0.8 mm)

Spark plugs (high speed) = NGK BCPR7ES (copper, gapped to 0.8 mm) ~$20 per set of 6.

Low speed = 1 range hotter, traffic = 2 ranges hotter.

NGK PFR5G-11

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.

How do you disconnect the the loom plug? I can't get it off and I don't want to break anything!

Also, do you have to remove the piping (for the cold air) that runs over the head to get to the spark plugs? The pictures do not show a top view shot of the engine bay with the "Nissan" cover off. Or do you simply slide it out underneath the piping?

0.8 is fine ive gone smaller depending on condition of ur coilpacks, i would never run 1.1 unless i have a beefed ignition sys. otherwise ull find it will mis under higher boost levels 15psi plus on stock 15year old coils.

    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
