Re: Vitara Sidekick pistons
never mind. i did some research and found out that they dont require modifying. they have a floating style wrist pin.
ive heard that you can use either the honda or the suzuki ringlands. but not sure which would be better.

I am curently in the middle of a vitara build too. with tt rods. looking to push safely like 300whp. I don't really see a problem with hiting that power on a daily basis. and the vitara's are a hyperutetic pistion. ask a v8 guy if you haven't heard of them before. bascily a setup below a forged piston and yes they will take A LOT OF ABUSE!

im easily over 350hp on these pistons. i have a bit more street tuning and track tuning before i hit the dyno...i want to hit 11.7's and then go to the dyno to see what kinda power it took to get my heavy pig to run the number...kinda reverse thinking when it comes to the dyno but i thought it would be interesting at least...
i ran 11.98 @ 118 in my sohc, y8 block, z6 head, all stock execpt for eagle rods and vitara pistons. 57trim t3/t4 @ 23psi. all in a full weight civic 4dr on 22x8x15 slicks.
