Which Spark Plugs?

[Gw2]

So i have a 97 r33 gts-4 (n/a), rather then getting a mechanic to service my car, im going to attempt to do it myself.

What spark plugs do you guys recommend i get? Also any other info about servicing this car would be appreciated, im kinda new to these 90s japanese sports cars, but im trying to learn =D

That's 1.1mm gap. Unless you have new coils, get plugs without the "-11" at the end (meaning you get 0.8mm gapped plugs)

Get BCPR6ES, they're like $3 each.

i have used 6 heat range (bcpr6es and bkr6e etc) and they never ran well enough in N/A. i also dont see the need to gap down to .8mm with N/A unless you have ignition issues elsewhere.

Yeah you can run 5 heat range, I just find it easier to grab 6 range as they're everywhere (and I buy two sets, for both my cars). The car is 15+ years old now, even though he isn't having ignition issues, I don't see why he can't run 0.8mm gap. Wouldn't make much difference between 1.1 and 0.8 on N/A anyway. You don't need to gap down the 0.8mm version since it's already made with that gap. OP can try both gaps and heat ranges to see if it makes and difference. That's why I recommend getting the copper ones, $3-4 vs $15-20 per plug.

I've been running BCPR6ES on my R31 for 5+ years without issues. Ran both gaps and didn't make a difference.

Also, servicing the car isn't any different than servicing a non-Skyline. Oil + filters. Do the spark plugs and air + fuel filters if they haven't been done this year.

Oil filter - use Nissan (don't know part number) or Z145a.

Oil - whatever you like, but something like 10W-40 is fine (support Aussie brands, Nulon or Penrite).

Apart from the consumables, you'll need an oil pan/tray, 14mm spanner, filter opener thingy, and optionally a funnel and jack. Oh and rags, they come in handy. Remember to do up the sump plug before filling it with new oil.

PFR5G11 NGK platinum is what i used on my old Rb25de, had better fuel economy as well as much better idle. Also cleaned out the coil packs and vaccumed the debris left over from the previous plugs before installing the new ones

[Deza3000]

Pfr5g11 are already gapped as well, so you wont have to worry about that =p

[Gw2]

Yes that is what i am looking for, spark plugs that will give better fuel economy, and possibly make the car run better/slighty faster.
