hi! i need JCW sparks for my car (are coulder than the stocks, right?), somebody knows the degrees? where can i buy it on internet?

thanks

 

They have the same plugs: NGK ILZKBR7A-8G

 

Try

I have not ordered from either of them before but use them from time to time to check part numbers.

 

I bought HKS M40XL Super Racing plugs. I am very happy with them

 

HKS lists this as a plug for the e46 M3, some Audis and VWs but not for a Mini Cooper. Why did you go this plug?

 

I'll double check the model number tomorrow. I went with this plug because my local shop here in the Philippines recommended that. The car is running fine so I dont think they installed the wrong plugs

 

I have been reading up about the HKS spark plug. It looks similar to the NGK and Denso Iridium plugs we see a lot more here in the US.

I did find a reference in a vendor site that cross lists that plug to the R56 MCS but it is not on the HKS site.

 

I believe NGK is the one making the plugs for HKS. The ones installed in my unit is colder than the stock plugs. I feel the engine runs smoother after changing the plugs. Specially on low RPM

 

Looks like there are two versions:

M40XL heat range 8
M45XL heat range 9

I am looking for the HKS-NGK cross reference now.

 

Great info. Maybe I'll try M45XL next time hehe

 

8 and 9 range?

the JKW sparks are 7 degrees i think...

 

It is a HKS designation for heat range. No idea what it means and how it relates to NGK or Denso. Could not find a cross reference table.

 

i am looking for sparkplugs too, and i found denso finally has it listed, but only in JP site -

According to Denso USA, the part number is K22PBR-S for the John Cooper Works. I filtered using model year 2009.

I would also check with Bavarian Autosport, because they only have the NGK ILZKBR7A-8G for the Cooper S.

 

soo? i have an R56 engine, are this denso coolder?

 

do you know how much the jcw plugs are each!?

lol, i went to the dealer and they told me $80, $80 a piece

oh yeah, i use the ngk laser iridiums and im pleased with them

 

They mark them up a lot....

 

That is ridiculous! They are 21.95 at Bavarian Autosport and are the same NGK's that are in the Cooper S. They verified it in their computer.

 

the JCW sparks are 1 degree coulder, a repeat how about this denso?? are coulder than ngk????

 

No idea about the Denso's. Why don't you try contacting them, either via phone or e-mail? You probably could have had your question answered by now. It took about an hour for Bavarian to respond back to me about the JCW plugs.

The NGK's for the Cooper S and JCW (second gen) are indentical.

Also, what are you trying to accomplish with the colder plugs? Are you turning up the boost or have some serious engine mods? For a stock motor, the NGK's are fine.

 

They are NOT 1 degree colder.

The Cooper S and the JCW share the same exact plugs. They were 1 degree colder on the R53 JCW, so make sure you're looking at the right things.

 

this denso 5062 are for the JCW year 2009 this car dont have sparks 1 degree colder?

 

yes i have 21.5psi of boost peak and other modifications i need 1 degree coulder sparks to go beter

 

soo?
