dont really want piston slap with vitaras?
so im going to do a vitara build on my d16y7. im curently boosted at 12psi the homemade turbo way. boost is like a drug need more!!!
my question is the stock bore 75mm vitara pistons, ive herd will give me piston slap? correct me if im wrong.
if i did 75.5mm pistons, is it posible to hone the shat out of it? if so, dose anyone have a piston to cyclinder wall clearance spec??

stock sleeves area already pretty thin, I would bore them any. you could keep you're 75mm bore and the 75mm vitara's and have the piston skirts knurled, ask you're machine shop about it.

I just ended up putting them in there was like a .006 piston/wall clearance, the machine shop I go to didnt have a knurling tool small enough for my pistons. Supprisingly they dont even slap all that bad, in the cooler months I drive it I can hear it slapping for maybe 2-3 mins after startup but after that its gone.
