Don't be expecting lap records then. You need decent rubber at Collie as it's pretty twisty, I did it last year in my factory Dunlops and they were terrible!

From memory my mates car was sitting on 3,300-3,400 @ 100kph with the RA box, I can also take off in 2nd and chug around all day at 40kph in 5th without a problem so that's no indication, I reckon it's a std 4.44 which is still a great box for a 5 speed and not as annoying at highway speeds.

Mine in 4th @ 174 on my mates private rd.



A different time, this is all it's doing in 5th @ 180, an RA would be getting up around 7,000rpm at this speed.

Hey guys, can anyone please tell me if these spark plugs have had it or is this generally what they look like when removed ?
Thanks

The old plugs are iridium. And have a finer center electrode. They look OK still.



The colour looks OK too.

The new plugs shown seem to be a standard copper plug and have a more cylindrical electrode. Just a different design due to the softer material.

Tip for you, do not use Bosch quad tips. They are what were causing me headaches on my STI when I would hit boost. Ngk all the way!!!
