RB30E/DET Pistons .

[discopotato03]

Soon I will be looking into pistons for my RB26/30DET . If I can still get OEM Nissan pistons for me these will suit my priorities of cost quality and quiet running . However apparently there is no easy way to get the desired 9:1 compression ratio without custom pistons .

IF ACL is going to get Mahle to do their pistons I'll look into these too . SK's recomendation of coated crowns will get the nod and I'm interested to hear if the Castrol R 10W60 Synthetic goes in the road engine as well . I've not used Synthetic oil in the past and did not realise it could influence piston choise .

Is there any info available about low expansion ie 2.5 thou custom pistons for the RB30DET and 8:5 to 9:1 compression ratios .

Cheers A .
