I'm not familiar with the denso part #s so I can't say for sure if what you have are from a 2j. iirc the 2j uses ngk bkr6ep-11.

The best IMO is the ngk bkr73 (6097). In my experience the iridiums don't do too well in boosted engines.

I've got piles of the bkr6ep-11. I'll sell them to ya for $1 a piece haha.

Hope that helps.

In the faq section in the 1jz section it says that common parts between the 2jz and 1jz are the plugs. Spark plugs for 1jz -ngk 3330 and 6097. A little search and you can find almost anything on this site my friend.

those plug's will be fine.if you start running higher boost,go with a colder plug (ngk6097)and smaller gap.people run the denso ik22 also,but not really worth the extra $$
