Supra has the same as a civic??
 
I was loosing my time on ebay and came across this

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33623

Complete Piston & Rod combo!!! These are 74mm (stock D series bore) Toyota Supra Pistons and B16A rods. This combo will allow you to pump out over 18 lbs of boost on the stock block! These were never installed in my motor because I never had the time. I am also including 2 extra pistons, and the rings. 4 of the pistons are already mounted on the rods with the wristpins already installed. This is the cheapest, easiest way to get more safe boost out of your Civic. The only reason I'm selling it is because I am parting out my Civic


Well, i wonder if supra pistons are better than oem but in another way if you blow one you could always take another one since its from a 6 cyl engine...

Its a low budget D setup using B rods cause they're stronger

I "heard" of the setup but never really knew what engine it was for. You learn something new everyday. What kind of CR does it put you at? Complete bolt in or any machine work need?

Hahaha.... WTF?

Good information! ;D

P.S. I'm using Vitara pistons in my setup, which are cast, not forged like FJT stated in that thread...
