Re: TOTO Piston's with pic
You may want to just give Wiseco a ring, see what they could do to some d16 piston blanks.
You will have to give them some measurements anyways, so you should go looking for them or measure yourself... I'm sure the 4g15 has documentation somewhere. Then look at this site: http://www.knology.net/~jediklc/D.htm and see if Vitaras (or any other aftermarket d16 piston) would work.

You want to dry film lubricate the piston skirts, which is like a teflon coating, and if you are going to do the insides/bottom (cavity) of the piston you want an oil shedding coating, not ceramic nor DFL (dry film lubrication).
Here are the pistons I just got done with:

Re: TOTO Piston's with pic
okie so it has finally come to this?
VS 
To me it look's like the Toto's have a Much Fatter Ring landing but the Exa is a Better Cast Piston? These Exa pics are the pistons just before they went into a accent turbo... The exa has How ever got thicker core forging and is heavier..
There is a Bigger Exa turbo piston set pic here http://www.iformation.co.za/scoupe/exa pistons.jpg
