they make vitaras in 78mm? vitara=not forged
why sleeve block and get vitara pistons anyways

but then again 78mm and cheap is kind of like an oxymoron too

unfortunately i never got ahold of lilcivic04, and i didnt see any 78mm pistons on ebay. Since they are a custom make very hard to find already produced.

78 would be the same price (probably quicker turnaround time as well), and all's fine and well if he wants the Cometic HG.
