Mem...i know the stock pistons are cast but....a chocolate company! They arent THAT bad
toughy.....depends on where you want to shop i suppose. The big jap names is what you really pay for. Personally i would get JE or Arias out of the US.
Arias want US$600 or 380gbp for a CUSTOM set of pistons, wrist pins AND rings. Thats any compression ratio you specify as well...like it says custom. I wanna see anyone get a set of the Jap pistons for that price.
Im calling JE later on today as well to find out their price. But for now my vote stands with Arias, JWT in the US use these extensivly in their built motors with no hiccups yet.....it doesnt hurt that Arias have been doing this since 1969 either
