just after some part numbers for spark plugs that people are using in R32 GTR's.

mines basically stock. put the listed plugs in there and its miss firing around 6000rpm.

PFR6A-11.

BCPR7A were in it and went alright but i would prefer some platinums or iridiums.

anyone run PFR7A-11???? the higher heat range should fix it but would like confirmation from someone using them before i spend another $90 on platinum plugs...

Mate Go Copper plugs much better spark then iridiums

NGK BCPR7ES

at around ~3.50 a plug i went from iridiums in the six range to these (little bit colder) in both my 300rwhp+ RB25 r32 and 307awkw r32 gtr and instantly better spark/idle/lack of misfire etc...

Pregapped to 0.8mm so if you intend to run a little extra boost would be perfect

amd at $21 to chang you can 5sets of new ones before getting near what iridiums cost...

Ps every tuner inc the tuners that try to flog you with HKS/GREDDY/TRUST plugs will recommend these if they didnt care about the markup on the other iridiums

ask around plenty of peeps on this forum using BCPR7ES as they are the go!!!

Actually i had these PFR6A-11 in my rb25det r32 first dyno 220rwhp heaps of missfire

only thing i changed was plugs to above mentioned Instantly no missfire then a bit of Afr fine tuning and managed 322rwhp with everything else the same!!!!

i run PFR8B-9 only cause i'm lazy and don't want to change plugs as often but cooper plugs have less resistence and therefor give slieghtly bigger spark, the smaller the gap the less chance of the spark getting blowen out and more low end torqe as the bigger gap gives top end .8 or .9 is ideal for allround.

hey kraysie32 thanks for part no i have been trying to find what cooper plugs the 26 runs i have a race coming up with a mate in a vz 5.7 that just had engine rebuilt after i beat him with his 11.6 and am going to need every advantage i can get.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      R12 has not been not available for....decades now. Propane is not a great replacement. (I mean, it's a great replacement, but it is a bit too flammable). R134a being the only way to go forward with an R12 system. The design pressures etc, are close enough to R12's to work. The ability to move heat around is close enough to R12's to work.

      Out of curiosity, what's the reason for converting? I think @R3N3 might have the Frenchy's kit in the R33? I somehow think of you as the ambassador for realistic and clean street-driven setups nowadays

      V35 Overheat + Coolant Boil & Overflow + Engine not Starting

      By V35_Paul · Posted

      careful when running the car after a boil over. Ive heard you can lose enough coolant that it won't show the right temps because of too much air in the system (or something like that). Make sure the levels are good before trying again.  Maybe a mobile mechanic can come have a look with their scan tool ?

      OK, just for some extra clarity - there is more than one option at Frenchy's. 1. You can buy the whole kit - with or without the actual compressor. The whole kit includes mounts, hoses, condensor, etc. That's either ~$2200 or ~$2800. No surgery required with this option. 2. You can buy just the bracket (~$600), or the bracket with the compressor (~$1200). Either of this or the above option "without the compressor" is if you already have an Echo comp or you are able to source one locally. Whatever the case, in this option, you will need surgery done on your hoses to adapt to the new compressor. When I said "the Frenchy's kit", I meant the whole kit in option 1. It is obviously somewhat more $$ than a $1500 OEM compressor. But if I had to spend $1500 on an OEM compressor, I would certainly consider spending double that to renew and significantly update everything forward of the firewall. Another option is to rebuild your original compressor. My R34 comp is currently dead and I will be most likely doing that to it if the spare one in the shed is also leaky.
