AK350Z Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Well then! I could have saved myself a few quid and a lot of messing about had I checked a few things and the 350z-tech website! I bought a set of Iridium sparkies of Nurrish a few weeks ago, thinking to swap mine for them. But after a lot of messing about wondering why the new plugs were a different size to ones that were in, I finally got to the bottom of the whole thing. 1) Nurrish has the VQ35DE (I think.) I have the VQ35HR. 2) A couple of changes were made between the two engines, not least of which were: + Iridium spark plugs + Spark plug modified into M12 So not only did they apparently fit Iridiums as standard; (code FYE22HR11 on mine) but they made them smaller too! So really I needn't have bothered in the first place! Lesson learned, check the specs next time! Anyone need 6 Iridium plugs? Only been turned over a couple of times in a supercharged Zed...

AK350Z Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 Couldn't remember, but the plugs for the first two engines are the same I think. My car is MY07 - the 313ps version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AK350Z Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 I'll probably still get round to doing a guide for it though, I've probably taken enough photos, maybe save someone else the hassle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
