Hey guys I have been looking all over my city (in canada) for these plugs and cannot find them! will probably end up ordering online.
I have read so many threads on HT but they are all over the place and I could not find any solid info. I am running about 14psi with 300whp.
Questions:
-Should I get these NGK bkr7e plugs? these are iridium correct? what the diff with the -11, pre-gapped?
-SHould I get the BKR7EIX-11 stock # 6988 or stk # 1283?
-what should i gap them to?
-Any other suggestions of plugs I could have better access to locally?
-also are these plugs made for motorbikes..?
Any answers would be greatly appreciated, I need new plugs soon!

 

I got BKR7E plugs (no -11) at advanced autoparts for 1.69 each. They had to order them, but they were there the next day. The part # is 6097. The -11 just means that they are pregapped I believe, but you may want to check that to make sure that it is between .028 and .032 for your engine.

 

i just ordered myself 4 bkr7e's today for this weekend. the -11 means they are pregapped, but you will more than likely be regapping them closer anyway. try gapping somewhere around .028-.030 inch to start

 

Ok cool, where are u guys located? i dont think i can get them up here..
I assume you guys got the BKR7EIX? which is the iridium plug i beleive. not just the normal BKR7E plug?
also can i get a plug gap tool at any auto store?

 

negative. all the turbo peeps i know inluding myself run the standard copper plugs. none of that iridium ****. you can get a gap tool anywhere.

 

I've been unable to find the #6097's (BKR7E) as well I was using ZFR7F-11's.

 

ngk.com they are like 2.25, just buy a bunch for future use/friends shipping isn't bad.

so get the plugs stock# 1283, the 'traditional plug'?

The 2nd ones on this page?http://www.ngk.com/results_app...fid=1
Also, whats the benfit of copper, just better conductor? How often do u change yours?

 

http://www.rockauto.com has BKR7E's in sets of 10 for ~$16 before shipping. I think mine were like $21 shipped to me. Plenty of plugs for frequent changes. You can't even buy 4 iridiums for that much.

http://www.rockauto.com calculates shipping at the absolute cheapest as $15 USD to my door.. almost the same price as 10 plugs, haha.

I hate living in Canada sometimes

dude, all you have to do is go to ngk.com and type in the number and see for yourself! the diff between those 2 is one is ISO height, the other JIS height (distance from seat to the terminal).
