Hi all,

I'm new to this forum, but have had my R33 GTR for around 8 years now.

Been down the same track as most of us have gone down. More boost, gasket fail and a rebuild with all the norm goodies, forge pistons new Tommie water pump and water pump, extended sump GTSS = 330KW ATW.

I was always one to change my own oil, change plugs and alike. Don't get me wrong I am no a grade mechanic but happy to keep cost down and a bit of hands on is always good.

Anyway, along the road I have come across a few tuners/workshops that would like to take on all the aspects of the car.

I got my car serviced and ready to take it way for the weekend and a good thump out of town. As soon as I put my foot into the car it started missing. I thought plugs, but it was not that long ago that I had them changed. I remembered that I had a set of plugs in the draw from when my car was running 260kw with stock turbos. I remember when I had the car original tuned seven years ago the tuner advised that a BCPR6ES was OK for my car on the street but I would need a BCPR7ES if I was to add more boost.

I found the plugs BCPR6ES so I started taking all the plugs out & they did not look to bad. At a closer inspection they were a part number that I did not recognize BKR6E. I put my plugs in and the car is running fine.

Sorry for elaborating for so long, my question is,

BCPR6ES is ok at low boost due to heat rating?

BCPR7ES high boost, track due to heat rating?

BKR6E is for a RB25 not a RB26?

Thanks

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
