loool just messing around

heard alot of stories about some stolen gtrs a few years back here, but at the time i was in the US to finish school. the thing is, its not about cheap or expensive, its about finding a place to take of the care and not worry about them fixing something and messing something else. from my visits to many garages (except for a couple), am starting to wunder how the hell did they got some gtrs in the 8's

Hmmmmm, this could explain it then. When you first installed the new plugs, things would of been fine but after a while they would of fouled up as these are a colder plug. This would of caused the misfiring after a while.

So important to:

Get the right plugs for the job first.

Gap then check then re-check again

Pay close attension when make changes & change things slowly to see the result. When fault finding, it makes things alot easier to find.

I've got my fingers crossed too.

Good Luck

U ARE A LIFE SAVER MAN

i raise my hat 2 u

thanks soo much, i would have been still wandering if its some wires i played with, or bad gasket.

THANKs

No problem there GTR4ever

Well done, glad to hear all is well. If it happens again try to order the correct spark plugs. This is a common problem with our cars and its always very handy to have a set of plugs handy for just this type of thing.

Always start simple & work from there.

Remember its BKR6E are the ones to get. Gap them to 0.7. This will keep you out of trouble.

Also now you know what afouled plug looks like, so you can just replace that one in future.

PM me anytime in the future for any help.

    • Ha ha ha, mine loves to spend, all on the dogs (they're our kids, and her spending would likely rival that of some people raising children!) the only benefit is, her spending is tax deductible as she runs a business in the dog industry 😛 The above all means she can spend race car budget quicker than I can. 😛 That and a lot of the things I want are very expensive, and I can be a bit "you want how much for that?!" And at other times overly impulsive. Or I start the w days of research, get to day 1.5 and get really annoyed that no one will advertise actual specifics and it's just marketting BS and I go "well, now I don't want anything to do with that now!" Also I hate paying lots of money for something I can make from $50 in materials. Then I get the shits halfway through making things and wonder why others who just buy parts have more fun... 😛  
    • Their 240Z with the RB26 would be a real nice thing to have in a garage to come out for an occasional weekend cruise It's such a cool thing in so many ways Sadly, we have a blue 240Z shell that I walk past every day, just sitting outside a shed at work, it has been slowly disintegrating and falling apart into the ground for the last few years, the owner cannot be found, and I am unable to "claim it" I've been told by work and the RMS, the rust in the body is excessive though, and it has had most of the salvageable stuff, like panels, trim and switch gear stripped off it over the last year or two, work keeps threatening to put it in one of our metal scrap bins, I wish they did though, as it makes Mark sad walking past it  
    • Good tips, I like it! 😂😂 My wife is a LOT more frugal than me so it's only me we need to worry about! A splurge to her is buying 2 pairs of socks in one visit at Kmart!
    • Haha, the appropriate response to the question "Is this new?" is "I've had this for a while.". With the unspoken small print that a while may be the time since this morning or five years ago   And to be fair I learned that from the best, i.e. my wife. Because it goes both ways.
    • Yeah kids certainly add a whole another dimension to your life.  Life ceases to be about you and more about them for a while!  And I wouldn't have it any other way.  I love watching them play sport and make new friends along the way. Wow, sounds like your mate is a good guy to know!!!  He's got some serious toys in the toy box!  Yes it would be lovely to be able to do stuff to your car without getting all tied up in boring shit like how to pay for it!!  I would describe my spending style as "aggressively spontaneous and logical but regrettable purchasing"....  That will hopefully make no sense at all which would be appropriate given that is how I buy stuff.  I'll decide at the drop of a hat that I'm buying something expensive, research the living shit out of it for 2 days straight then go out and buy it.  Then I'll have instant buyers remorse for 2 days which generally passes by the time it turns up on the front step!  If I'm feeling ballsy sometimes I'll tell my wife.  Other times it just makes its way silently passed the house and out the back to the shed, never to be spoken of again...
