Andy-No-Knee Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 I used ebay - RealStreetPerformace RSP and they gave a very low value of goods on the parcel and I only had a £30 charge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 (edited) What bore and compression ratio are the Crower pistons you are getting? Edited October 1, 2010 by Nic (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil-NA Posted October 1, 2010 Author Share Posted October 1, 2010 Was going for the 86.5, will double check the CR in the morn i know they listed 2, so probably the higher of the 2. Been told to check out JE and i haven't ruled out Toda either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been told to check out JE and i haven't ruled out Toda either. How about the Mahle pistons I'm now selling? They are pretty much the best pistons on the market and pretty good value for what your getting, £600 + VAT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul its for an NA, do they do them in high compression Link to the Toda pistons http://www.toda-racing.jp/en/product/piston/2jz-ge.html Cheers Nic i keep lookimg at them,but unless i'm converting them wrong they are coming back at over 1K not inc shipping.
