it is only when the motor is under a load. running or revving high in a static condition it never makes the noise.
Thats strange.... Turbo issues?

I think both those part #'s are for platinum. Deffinately go platinum for your engine. Just go to an autoparts store and tell them what you got, and theyll give you what you need. Just dont go with a champion or autolite plug if they give you choices. NGK or Bosch are best.

Worst case would be the electrode ground melts/snaps off and goes bye bye into the cylinder head which = bye bye engine.

Does that NA motor come with Plat plugs? I was told to run steps colder on an NA motor wouldnt be the best idea by some Nissans guys when I was tinkering with my G35.

don't make fun of my little 12v. it's a nice car and it would be a huge loss if it blew up. picked this car up for $5500 and it's super clean. what a jerk
