Gotta say it.......USE THE SEARCH BUTTON. There are a million threads about this and they are listed in the "Stagea Parts Thread"

There that took me a couple of mins to find these previous threads amongst about 100 others.

Trust me it will save you a good flamming :thumbsup:

And these would go for any RB25DET.

ok i have been through the links and the parts list,the splitfire instructions i got say it is essential to change plugs as well to one colder heat range in conjuction to other mods(pod,exhaust,chips etc) and must be a resistor type, of the spark plug thread,which one would be suitable for the splitfires...

hey dude

I strongly recommend NGK BCPR6E

They are a 0.8mm pregapped, copper, v-groove plug. They are fine up to slightly over 300rwkw odd

only $3.00 each, change from a $20.

will last as long as your tyres, get good spark being copper and .8mm

I use these, for 2 yrs I used stock coil packs that had hi-temp industrial silicone sealant all around them to help stop wasted spark, but changed to my splitifres i got for chrissy recently. didnt change plugs as the current bcpr6e set is only 5000 thou old.

feels real nice with these $19 plugs and splitfire coilpacks, idles very well, pulls well too with no breakdown

i have had no luck finding plugs,the car is in the garage with everything off but the only plugs i could find were a $130 set of platinum...i have been asking around and trying to get the bcpr6e with one colder heat range but if TANGLES has had no problems then i will stick with the 6's.has anyone got splitifres?what plugs were you using? heat range?

I get mine from motor traders here in SA

in fact I have a new set of 6 on my shelf here atm.

its not so much the "6" heat range, but the copper and .8mm gap

7 heat range would suffice for sure

with splitfires either or, just make sure 0.8mm gap, copper is as good as anything else.

are they a platinum? if so the guy who i spoke to yesterday who owns several drag/drift cars told me to stay away from platinum in turbo cars,apparently due to the tip being different they cant handle boost and play up very easily. or would the platinum version be a pfr6g-11OE??

The plugs in question (PFR5G-11)have don five sesions (100 lapes aprox at 12psi) at qld raceway and four dino sesions as well as doing the normal daily drive. I have just now replaced them after about 70.000 k only because my fuel pump gave up the gost and i thort it a good idear to replace them. Even though the engine had run lean for a short time the plugs were stil in good shape.

    • Well some mostly good news and some slight bad news.  Good news is cylinder 6 did in fact only require a honing and I'm good to run my 86.5mm pistons again. I should also get the block back by end of week. Bad news, had a few surprises pop up. First, main and rod bearings were trashed. No sign of any heat damage. I knew right away what caused this... I had not packed my oil pump originally and spent a lot more time than I would have liked cranking the motor to get oil pressure. It sounded fine once started so I chucked it up to luck and forgot about it. Luckily rod and crank are fine and just need new bearings. Engine builder agreed that this was the cause.    Another surprise that carbon covered up very well that I didn't catch, something got sucked up and went through cylinder 1, 2 and 3. Luckily this was no cause for concern, just needed a bit of cleaning up. Valves look fine but he will vacuum test the head this week to confirm. I'm presuming this was something left over from welding my intercooler piping, but we'll never know. I'm going to thoroughly reclean everything.    So all in all, happy the motor is fine, and I'll get it back much sooner than expected. I'll also be taking the time to convert my WMI system over to direct port. I'll snap some pictures of that when the parts come in. 
    • I understand, thanks. Yeah I wouldn't want the car to tip over, I'll try and use the sills, I don't want to risk smashing the chassis rails. I ordered some rubber pucks that have a hopefully big enough slotting. If the front right gives me trouble I can always just make a wood block. I'll measure and inspect the sills closer once I actually take the car up. I hope so, but the rubber blocks I had in hand so far were pretty damn firm, if they are that hard they won't give much way. I'll let you know what happens. Angle grinding rubber isn't one of my favorite tasks. I'll probably start a build thread soon, for my own documentation and "log" as well as sharing what's going on with the car.
    • Kinda something I have been thinking about.  To be honest, we bought it already driving like that.  So there's no telling how long it actually has been driving like this.  Hopefully damage is too bad when we drop the pan.   I am having a hard time finding a site that sells the solenoid for the 5 speed auto, do you have any suggestions?
    • That'll be most likely down the road...  LOL  
    • a stock / option or aftermarket?
