Hi thank you for the quick reply and being honest im using them in a custom engine (toyota) so I have no ballpark what range they go for would you happen to know piston pin diameter? my rods are 20mm but I can bore and bush them if need be 22mm Thanks so muchDavid

the piston pin hole, as per the FSM is 19.987-19.989

i have some factory high compression CA18 pistons, they came out of an N/A CA i think the compression is either 10.5 or 10.1 i'd let them go REAL cheap if you'd like

they came out of a motor with roughly 25k miles and have good rings also.

Thanks im just right now looking for low compression pistons I have heard they can take 400+ h.p. i would be happy with 430-460 h.p. boosted stroked 7afe engine to 1990cc's 83mm bore by 92mm strokeThanksDavid

I won't say that the stock, cast, CA18DET pistons aren't good to 400+HP, but I'd have to see it to believe it. The general concensus that they're good for around the 300-350hp mark.

I'm going to prove this and we can solidify it as factual. The stock CA18DET pistons are good for 500 peak hp and you can drive around daily with 400whp as long as you have the fuel management to keep performance optimal. I am going to build an S13 that will produce in excess of 400whp. This car is to be sold once the experiment is done, so you guys that want big power, sell your car because I'm going to assemble an extremely reliable 400+whp CA18DET power 240sx.

But back on topic, mr2erdave, if you still need those pistons, I have some as well.

Sure dee let me know I heard they are great for skylines i cant remember what engine (rb) but they make big h.p. numers with them like I said im a toyota guy and I dont know what they go for and I need a measurment from center of pin hole to top of crown I dont want them to be peeking out of the cylinder wall 4 inches take caredavid

I've read several cases of folks running ca18 pistons in their 4AGs.Whats wrong with 4agze pistons... compression too high with 7AF head or is a low ca piston price the attraction ?Quite a few 25-30psi gze piston samples out there... one even nitros + hi boost.Which rods did you choose/how much $$$ ?

[mr2erdave]

dash es I know the stock gze low and high comp pistons are great 350+ h.p. but I am stroking the engine past 81mm and i have read good OEM stock pistons for high H.p. are ca18det and 7mgte's so I am trying to find a good set for my engine

Dave, from the top of the piston to the center of the piston's pin roughly around 29.40mm. Let me know if this is in your ballpark and I'll drop you an email (Even though I emailed you before on this topic).
