    I just recently picked up a Z and I was told it developed a misfire and it’s for sure the spark plugs. The engine is bone stock it just has an exhaust and a performance , flame , and economy tune. Would any of that effect what type or kind of spark plugs I should get? And would I have to take it to that specific tuner or could I just take it to a local shop since my motor is stock?

    • @AnthonyJ350
      @AnthonyJ350  3 года назад +1

      You can take it to a local shop that is familiar with Nissan engines. I list some part numbers in the description.
      Also look into changing out the camshaft and crankshaft position sensors, if original they cause issues at this age of the vehicle.

    Hi Anthony, I have a G35 and about to change my sparks for the first time. In the video, you mentioned to hand tight the spark plugs and then torque wrench it according to manufacture specs. Where can I find this? And another video showed that I would need to remove the intake manifold gasket, would you say this is needed?

    • @AnthonyJ350
      @AnthonyJ350  6 лет назад +2

      Jamilynn Nguyen I didn't pull out the manifold. The torque setting would be in a service manual. You'll want a very accurate torque wrench because you can strip the threads. Or you can just make them snug by feel. Just be gentle with them because the cylinder head is aluminum which is a soft metal.

    Why iridium ix and not laser iridium? There's quite a huge difference in their milage. I guess your revup is easy but HR motors can be hard for some people so they may put long life plugs 💪😐

    • @AnthonyJ350
      @AnthonyJ350  8 лет назад

      NGK states these are designed for the performance enthusiast and the electrode on the Laser is smaller (I'm guessing for longer life). Given I only drive the car 8 months out of the year these should do me fine for the application.

    Why would you ever go out and source vaccuum hose to thread a spark plug in, when you just stick them back in the plug socket and thread them in? Stacey just likes to play with limp hose. Good vid man!

    • @AnthonyJ350
      @AnthonyJ350  3 года назад

      Did you see the cylinder head design? You can't thread it in by hand because your fingers won't reach, so you end up dropping them in so you might affect the ground electrode. Watch that section again. Thanks for watching!

  • @holyghostwarrior
    @holyghostwarrior 6 лет назад +3

    Those are not OEM.. Use the double platinum.. most autoparts don't carry them on the shelf but almost any Auto Parts can special order them for you and usually they will try to push these as OEM instead.. the logic is that iridium is actually a better material however the OEM double Platinum have more surface area and the electrode is beefier so in actuality the OEM is way better.. the OEM can get a little bit pricey though.. I have owned my vq35de since new and using the OEM yields the best results..

    • @holyghostwarrior
      @holyghostwarrior 6 лет назад

      Yes I think the main difference is throttle response, and the OEM plugs have a longer service life then those other Autoparts variants.

    • @AnthonyJ350
      @AnthonyJ350  6 лет назад +1

      psychobilly The longer service life doesn't interest me because I wouldn't use the plugs for over 100,000 KM. But what's the price difference? Because if it's like double it doesn't make any sense since the Iridium is pretty durable.

    • @holyghostwarrior
      @holyghostwarrior 6 лет назад

      AnthonyJ350 well well although they are more expensive it's not as bad as it used to be where as iridium for example would set you back $7.99 a piece the double Platinum will run you about $11.99 a piece.. for a enthusiast I would recommend they go with the OEM it is a nominal investment to compliment any upgrades or modification they have made whereas to an average Joe they might not notice or care about the difference in performance so much.. the double Platinum will have a very consistent reliable life span whereas the iridium you will have a noticeable decline in performance after about 75% of its life span.. furthermore my friend for example has a fully built twin turbo vq35de and the shop that Built his engine recommended even he use the OEM plugs although depending on the application you can go a couple of degrees cooler on the spark plugs you will also find reference to this in the 350Z owner's manual..

      Thank you! It's had a few changes since this video. I noticed little bit better throttle response, the plugs I took out weren't bad. I think the manual states their good for up to 100,000KM but for how cheap they are I change them around 60-70,000KM. After 2 years I'll random pull out a couple at the very least to see how they look and if anything looks amiss.

    what do you think?

    • @AnthonyJ350
      @AnthonyJ350  8 лет назад

      I would go super charged for the simpler and more cost effective set up. If you can put 350 to 400 horsepower to the ground, that is a fast street car. But I would spend money first on suspension and brake to help use the power you already have and if you do the big upgrade, the chassis can keep up with the motor.

      Hmmmm probably something in the hydraulics of the clutch have gone. The master, slave or both need to be replaced. Change out the flex line to a stainless braided version with a heat shield as well.
      I doubt I'll supercharge mine, too much money right now and I have another vehicle to work on and I want a house. I'm just doing the plenum spacer and I'll be good for power right now with my full exhaust.
      You should look into changing the diff bushings and transmission mount and put more power to the ground.

      +AnthonyJ350 well it says here on paper from the dealership that the cause from my clutch was the master clyinderloosing pressure. the correction they did was that they replaced the clutch master cylinder and the bleeding system something like that i dont know what that is. also they diagnosed the transmission and drive train

      Both, I used one on my car. You can get them quite cheap on Ebay and they work pretty well.

      xXYannuschXx Ya if it works for you I see no issues. I just find with some magnets for the installation portion a fastener or plug may just spin on the magnet.

      Not the way this car is shaped and all the bracing in the back. If you want rear sears you have to go G35 or G37.
