long time ago i tired tis. but the prob is the electrod eat side way. have to correct them quite frequent. not too convinient for my 1jz as my coil pack had to be removed in order to access the plugs.and not to mention the plastic cover too .. so many things to open
 
just my 2 cents...IF by side gapping,d spark produced is on par w those so-called performance plugs,thn y didn't d manufacturers did it frm d factory?reliability issue?warranty issue?what?
i've never tried dis b4 n i dun plan 2 unless sum1 can vouch 4 its reliability ler............
anyway,whr is dis well w 10,000volts ar?SOMEONE ought 2 b thrown in der,right?HAHAHAHH
 
its like naphthalene/moth balls la...during batu tiga n cub prix days

reliability issue... the electrode will experience wear n tear... this same goes to normal plugs which had its electrode hovers over it... normal sparkplugs with electrode hovering over it has longer lifespan as the gap remains the same even there is wear n tear on the long electrode leg....

on the other hand... for sidegapped sparkplugs, once the electrode leg wears off, the gap widens and u will experience missfiring... if u know how to regap the gaping, it can still be reused... i've been using sidegapped plugs for few years already... each time when i experience sluggish performance, i'll regap the gaping....
 
so,dis side gapping REALLY works just dat it'll b a continious "maintenance" on d gapping part,right?
hmmmmmm..............
 
probably:-
1)he found d well w 10000volts n jump in himself?
2)sum1 found d well w 10000volts n shove him in der?

yes can say so... thats why for reliability and long lifespan wise, sparkplug manufacturer drops this idea....
