Not sure exactly what the specs you're looking for but the 84-87 civic 1.5 D series aka EW series used 74mm bore... why not bore over 1mm and have access to a bigger variety?

EW1 aka d15a1 pistons should be super cheap, if not free

depending on the cc volume of your cyl head, they ought to give you a drop in compression if that is what you're after. IIRC the pistons make ~9.3:1 with <28cc head, can't recall but it is down there.

The pistons should easily, with good tuning, be safe for 120+ hp
