hey nubbie, welcome to the forum. Just check the NGKor Denso website and there you'll be able to find out what plugs fit which cars.

Search the on for the 1.8L 2ZZ-GE which is the engine in our Stivos.

well mines not a sportivo.. so.. is 1ZZ the right one for levin and all??

and also.. did some search on it...

ngk - BKR5EIX-11

denso - Iridium IK16

hyundai uses the same code for the ngk sparks... with hondas and all...

does that mean.. any product with that code will fit on our car?

or it must be toyota BKR5EIX-11????

what you are seeing on ebay is the seller using keywords to catch searches. that item could be for a civic but could also fit other cars. perhaps you can go talk to an authorised ngk dealer if you are really unsure what you need to get.

hmmm...

i know that 1ZZ requires.. only 5 heat value...

but is it ok to use 6?? ive heard from people that... if ur planning to mod ur car... or u constant rev ur car... 1 extra degree will be ok.... is it true???

which is better? TOM's or DENSO??? or NGK

they said... toyota's plugs has a hook.... which denso has it but NGK doesnt have it...

does it make a difference?

the NGK is like half the price of denso and tom's.... is it worth it?!?

to my knowledge toyota for the sportivo version comes standard with iridium spark plugs, but then everyone is talking about the 100k limit on them. - why does toyota change at 40,000km..???

we need to find twin spark iridiums- would be very good..

I am sure the TRD plug leads are quite good, but they will do stuff all for the 1ZZ or 2ZZ. We use 'coil on plug' ie. we dont have plug leads as our coils are built into the spark plug connector :)

Toyota doesn't change the Sportivo (2ZZ-GE) spark plugs at 40K kms... it's in the manual under the service register @ 100K kms

MAP81, wat are u talking about u raving homo... spark plug cables and spark plugs are an easy 15kw atw. coupled with a chip and an intake, surely 20kw shouldn't be a hard ask. we'll be chasing evos b4 we know it. it's all about the NA power-weight ratio... B)

On a more serious note talk to Danz, he has tried a few different types of plugs... I am using NGK iridium's but to be honest didnt really notice much difference...

Dont think you will unless your car is modded heavy and needs the best spark possible!

Well after I put mine in I got wheel spin in 4th gear :D Just increadible!.

Yes seriously, a tiny bit smoother after 4000rpm, a tiny bit easier on the juice, but 2zz's already come irridium plugs.

looking at spark plugs and hear ngk are good.

i search their catalogue and find for 1zz the "recommended" part is BKR5EYA-11

this is recommended for the 1zz however there is the iridium "option" of BKR5eIX-11

then i looked at the plug for 2zz and found the "recommended" part is IFR6T11 however there was no mention of iridium.

does anyone know is that is right? there is no iridium option for 2zz by ngk? or is that part standard with iridium but i think if it was it would have IX in the code.

interesting that when i looked at the import being fielder/runx the "recommended" part is the same as the 1zz. error?

If you look at www.ngksparks.com it gives a different alternative list to the Aust NGK site...I called them and they could not explain....particularly annoying when I bought 6 iridium plugs which are recommended in US but not here?...

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
