All 4 pistons are broke, Damm it
 

Pulled my pistons today to see waht they looked like, before I put my head back.be cause at first I htought it was a head gasket. and all 4 piston are broke. The rings them selfs look fine, but its the spot in between the rings that are cracked and broke off. they were supoose to be wesico pistons and rings, is there any way to tell if there the factory pistons or after market? sorry no pics, My camera is broke. any ideas why they broke like that?

Usually OE pistons have the model stampped into the top. like CRX Si pistons are stampped PM6. b16a1 are pr3. etc...

Re:All 4 pistons are broke, Damm it
 

i knew it wa your ringlands from day one.... there prob stock

Re:All 4 pistons are broke, Damm it
 

they probably say the brand on the underside if they are aftermarket

Re:All 4 pistons are broke, Damm it
 

theres only a couple pistons that can even be used in a non-sleeved H series due to the FRM sleeves.....

Re:All 4 pistons are broke, Damm it
 

the only thing it says is IN P14 than than the letter B is stamped in the middle.

Re:All 4 pistons are broke, Damm it

p14 = H23A1 code.

Sucks man.. crazy that you were only boosting 5-6psi and all the ringlands broke, I think you should take your girl out tonite, get really shitty drunk and just take it out in the bedroom. ;D

I say you pay a visit to who sold it to you.. >:( That ---- is WRONG

Re:All 4 pistons are broke, Damm it
 

I was using 450cc injectors, fuel rail and a S-AFC, it was untuned. he lives in SC, and I live in PA. so its a pretty far drive. thats engine number 2 under my belt. :'( so now its time to build it up with some better parts. :-* what would cause all 4 of the pistons to brake like that?

Re:All 4 pistons are broke, Damm it
 

where the hell are the pix mang!!

Re:All 4 pistons are broke, Damm it
 

Detonation baby..

Re:All 4 pistons are broke, Damm it
 

well Iam back from the bar getting hella drunk, the old lady is bed, so I could take advantage of her, lol, what makes you think detonation? I would like to know why all 4 pistons went. I never heard anything bangs or pinging, I kept the car running rich. oh well, time to build the bottem end up.

Re:All 4 pistons are broke, Damm it
 

Its okay man, after a few more rounds your ability to hear the 'death rattle' pinging will be almost super human.
Wait till you start dreaming about the sounds of pinging....then you'll have reached rock bottom, lol.

Re:All 4 pistons are broke, Damm it
 

or the tp of your game, i have the occasional nightmare about the detonation when i blew my a6

Re:All 4 pistons are broke, Damm it
 

If it helps with the nightmares, you can revisit the world of ping (detonation) with my own recording:

I got a crazy idea!! I'll burn it to CD and play it REAL loud whenever I race someone....

Re:All 4 pistons are broke, Damm it
 

I highly doubt they all blew at the same time. Over time you just beat the hell out of those poor guys and this is the end result. :'(
