bcp6e-11 doesn't seem to exist according to ngk
no harm in throwing in the bkr6e-11's and seeing if you can feel the difference yourself, 5 minute job

I Would Stay With The Bkr6e-11 Or Maybe Try Bkr6ek Which Are Twin Electrode Plugs.you Might Want To Stick With A Resistor Type Plug,especially With Fuel Injected Engines.the R In Bkr6e Is How You Tell That Its A Resistor Type Plug.hope This Helps.

well they're unknown plugs, take them out and have a look at the condition, if they're still okay just use them until the next service and swap them out :)

According to ngk.com.au, you're meant to use BKR6E-N-11.

And BCP6E-11 does exist.

would using the BCP6E-11's do any damage to the engine if i use it?

i just bought them and cant really return them anymore.

However I havnt put em on yet.

arrong do you know what BCP6E-11's are for? Im sure ive seen these in Si's before which is why i bought em.

Edit: i just checked and the BCP6E-11's are meant for the 1.5's. According to ngk.com.au. Might try to return em and get the other ones.

thanks guys

Otherwise, you'll only be out of pocket by $16 for the set of 4. Sell them off to someone with a 1.5?
