supra pistons

using D16 crank, you can use B16 rods mated to 1st gen JDM Supra turbo pistons.
i heard that this setup will handle ~18 PSI daily with an absolut threshold of 22 PSI.

Re:supra pistons

heard of it.. Yes, heard of it doing it... Kinda.. seen or done it myself ? No.. Would I do it ? yes.
Would I leave some extra money set aside for some "not meantioned" machine work ? YES.

That panda dude ( or what ever ) on H-T is selling them.. Its a pretty good deal if you ask me..

Bad news... sleeves break before internals..

Next year I might do it on a buddies car. He has high compression ( integ rods pistons ) now, but he wants to go turbo !!
