I see in race kit manual said use NGK R0045-10

Why this plugs don't have an electrode?

For better burn, or for skimmed head modification?

Racer's please advise.

To prevent shielding of the flame front by the electrode, can be a bit subjective at times.

U mean that is not sale alone?

Or there is a different part number?

I think ZXR 400 engines can use

NGK R0045-J10

NGK R0045-Q10

NGK R0373A-10

And Denso RU01-31

I dont know if this plugs sold for now only in race kits.

They are surface discharge plugs and are used on high compression engines to give a more reliable spark than a standard plug. But you best sit down when you get a price for them There about £70 each!!!
