the correct plugs are denso pq20r
no point going to iridiums, just extra cost

hey toyota4ever, where in NZ are ya?

I've got a brand new set of NGK plugs (non platinum tho) that you can have for $10 if ya like.

I use these plugs with a different heat range on my gtz which is turbo and have no probs whatsoever.

a closer gap is recomended for boost, however dont try and regap 1.1 plugs to .8. rather get the correct plug in that range, which will be pq20r8
