have anyone here putting a 1G pistons into our 4e/5e? i'm planning to do so. so wanna know what is the difference between 1G-GTE and 1G-GZE pistons?
1G-GTE piston works with minor machining....
But it would be cheeper to buy 4EFTE forged pistons
i can buy used 1G pistons at USD100 over here and machinery is around USD50... will it be cheaper or still buying a forged is cheaper?
Is that for a set? price of new OEM rings on 1G?
On what bore is your engine now? going 75mm will be the max and if bore gets damaged then you cant rebore and get other pistons.
And $300 for a second hand set that was not meant for the engine and doubt it will take 2-2.5bar boost like Wiseco and other, might
not be the best idea?
But if you want to do it to be different or for the academical exercise, then do it
thanks for the advise and comments. just a quick question, has anyone bought things from speedvisioncps before?
yup, i got my piston rings off him...aswell as some other stuff...good guy to deal with
someone has a link where to buy a good and decent compression test kit ?
I'am sure any one more expensive than the cheapest one you can find would be fine.
mechiel bud, I still feel you should have a closer look. Rings should not break and you can not really fit them wrong...
