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.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
