Hey guys, pulled my oil pan off and looked at the pistons, and they don't look stock. From what I could make of the stamp it says "AT5UGI", any idea what brand it could be? :confused:

Doesn't really matter. The oil pan is off for a reason, so fix whatever needs fixing or stop being nosy and get your car running.. :)

BTW, I have no clue as to what slugs you have in there.

More like "ATSUGI". ;) Nissan OEM supplier. They did water pumps, and maybe oil pumps, as well, IIRC. Guess they make/made pistons, too.
