Rb25det Pistons

[4DoorStyle]

Hey guys, i have just had my head off for a port polish job and bew manifold etc. and the mechanics (who work on performance cars all the time) said that my car doesnt have the original internals and that they are high compression pistons etc. but i am sceptical so wat are the standard pistons.. flat top or domed etc, how do u tell the difference? its an r33 gtst btw

cheers

this is what a stock rb25det piston looks like.

is it possible that youve got an rb25de turbo'd motor?

[4DoorStyle]

Thanks mate, well the car is plated as an r33 gtst, has everytihn a turbo model has, it was brought from cred tuning a couple of years ago. the guys just reckon its already had a rebuild which i guess is good for me as there was no piston slap and the motor was clean like new

well i hope theyre forgies! try grab some pics or see if there are any markings on the top of them.

[4DoorStyle]

yeah me too, they are gettin some pics for me, wat would they say?

[SECURITY]

you'll be able to know if theyre stockies by looking at them, forgies have a different finish to stock pistons.

bit of a noob wen it comez to internals..what r the benefits of having, say arias forged pistons?...is it any use having them without having any other internals done?

thanks.

i would imagine they would take to detonation a little better. If it does have different pistons, i couldnt see why they'd put standard rods back in while they were at it...or at least preped nissan rods.
