Just cleaned out my stagea that i picked up last month, now i have read all the info about which are the best sparks to put in the stagea and i will be buying a new set next week... but i came across the sparks that are currently in the car (the previous owner fit these ones the week i picked it up)... ngk bkr5eya...

i just did a search on here and on google but not really finding out much on compatibility for the car, so far i found it suits a 98 cressida that bout it... knowing what the basically stock stagea with an exhaust system should be running spark plug wise just wondering if anyone has ever come across their car running these? apparently you can gap them to .8 and they are anti fouling. but i thought being the 5 instead of 6/7 is and issue straight up?

just curious to see if people have run these, the guy had a r33 series 1 also so i would assume he would have been running the same in that.

No I already told you in one of your many threads that PFR5G is the listed spark plug for the RB25DET.

You only need to start going colder when power is significantly in excess of stock. The plugs you have should be fine.

I hate those BKR plugs. Bastard new set I had in the R33 cost a bunch of time on the dyno. Swapped them out for BCPR7's and instant power. I am not sure if that is due to the length affecting the contact on the coil, the V groove or just a single dud plug but I still hate them.

For Laurence when the time comes change them for BCPR6ES. At stock power they shouldn't be an issue.

thanks guys, i was just asking as i wanted to see if anyone has used them thats all....

kiwisr4t, i know which ones i should be running, i only posted this to see if anyone else had ever had these ones running, that is all... i am buying the ones you suggested to me earlier but was just curious about these ones the car currently has.

thanks Wolverine, that is what i was suggested to buy and will do

people if my posts inquiring about bits n pieces regarding the stagea is annoying or over the top i'll just stop posting... i only ask as i am new to the car and i am still learning about it all... i am not posting to pester people or anything like that that is not my agenda... posting on here to people who know what they are talking about is the best way to learn, thats why i ask.... again sorry if i have post stuff that may have been repeated or unnecessary.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
