Not sure about Northen side, but you can try checking out spare part shops. In KL easier to find lah... N1 Racing have em'
As for the plug cable, I didn't but lah.... maybe you should try it out first

Btw, I'm currently using Denso Iridium Power IK-20, no problem so far...

I'm also using Denso Iridium IK20 in my BT & also my 3S, so far so good.

CorollaGT,

IK-20 is more than enough for our 20v engine. I myself use Denso IK-20, HKS 35i, also not bad.


Katopunk,

Try to check ur spark plug cable, the ignitor cable also the four cable from distributor there, then also the spark plug, when is ur last time change the plug from? if too long better change the plug, don't hurt the engine.

 

[weitak_83]

very much different between Ik 20 & Ik 22?

did any 1 try before "gapping"? useful?

I read that Denso Iridium claims 80k kms for their lifespan, meaning it's about the same with your timing belt's life. However, I've only managed to use them up to about 60+k km before I feel their performance dropping.

The again, it's difficult to be accurate bcoz of the fuelling in each car is different. Some maybe too rich & some maybe too lean. All this does affect the lifespan of the plugs. Incorrect heat range does help to kill the plugs faster as well.

Just my 2 cents; whatever that means.

yes, i got question about gapping also. the stock gap for iridium power IK20 is 0.4mm right?

sorry, im not sure. :)

any 1 do hv. ideas on gapping? pls. share, thanks.

 

[katopunk]

ahh.. i've just changed my plugs to IK20. well, if i'm not wrong all the IK series gapping is 0.4mm.

i was surprise to found that my previous owner fitted IK24 in. i don't know why.

is there any implications of using colder plugs for 20v?

 

[wilm3]

wow! my plug 3 years liao...think is the right time to try new sets...

Colder plugs i.e. IK24 is good for high revving / speed but not for town use.
