Faith Adopter Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 I have searched the topic but to no avail.... I have a set of these (I believe they were bought from Terminator by the previous owner, Faith Stalker) and wanted to check that they are fine to fit to my standard (2nd decat and air filter) jap spec TT?? I also intend to up the power slightly (the usual full decat, upgraded fuel pump, Nur spec, FCD) Will these plugs be suitable once these mods are fitted or will i need to upgrade the plugs in the future? And finally, what are the life expectancy of these particular plugs, as iv'e read somewhere of some plugs not having to be changed for 60k miles?? Cheers!! :thumbs: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 They would be okay for a stock car but if you're running higher than stock boost then you will probably need a cooler grade of plug, I use S45i at 1.2bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faith Adopter Posted November 13, 2004 Author Share Posted November 13, 2004 Cheers Nic, Do you happen to know how long the plugs last for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 I'm not sure about the life of the plugs, I change mine every 6,000km though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 I think the iridiums are good for up to 20k in a stock car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they need to be gapped before fitting or is it simply a case of them being ready to fit straight out of the box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 You can't re-gap iridiums...as you'll knacker the iridium tip when putting in the gap gauge. They are gapped properly to start with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FaithStalker Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 I actually got them from Nic (via Hong Kong, along with the boost gauge....) as far as i can remember.... Termy gave me the Neilson blue, gold and octane booster - oh and plenty of good advice :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
