The HKS M45HL is the ultimate high-performance spark plug for modern "Long Reach" cylinder heads. Engineered with an NGK Heat Range 9 equivalent, this "colder" plug is designed specifically for engines running high boost, aggressive tunes, or frequent track use where managing cylinder heat is critical to preventing engine knock and pre-ignition.
Whether you are pushing the limits of your Toyota 86/BRZ, GR Yaris, or Nissan R35 GT-R, the HKS M-Series ensures a stable, powerful spark under the most extreme conditions.
Colder Heat Range (NGK #9): Ideal for modified engines that generate significantly more heat than stock, protecting your engine from catastrophic detonation.
0.6mm Iridium Alloy Center Electrode: Requires less voltage to jump the gap, resulting in better ignition performance, sharper throttle response, and more reliable cold starts.
Platinum Ground Electrode: Features a square platinum chip for superior durability, ensuring your spark gap remains consistent even under high-load circuit driving.
Anti-Vibration Design: The shortened outer electrode (Anti-Vibration type) is engineered to withstand the high-frequency vibrations found in high-RPM racing engines.
Thermal Edge Technology: The specialized ceramic insulator design helps discharge carbon buildup during idling, keeping the plug clean even in stop-start Australian traffic.
