ok i have a guys that can get me the followings..brand new

CTR pistons w/ rings and pins (standard)
CTR valve springs
CTR rods

his asking $1000 flat.
is it a good deal or kinda high??
i want to get vavles too but i dont know if he can get em.

qbsi

or should i just get the JE pistons instead?
looking for compression around 11 or 11.2.
how much would it cost?

The_Head

Are you going to boost the motor, or stay all-motor (naturally aspirated)?

Jackson

What are you going to do with the rods, buy a ctr crank and destroke your gsr motor? Or put the ctr pistons in a b16a? All you need is the pistons if you are using them for a b16a.

fowler!

That is a lot of money.

My friend just got CTR cams, valve springs and retainers for $500

You can get CTR pistons for like $300-400...

do the math

qbsi

sorry i forgot to mention. im staying all motor.
i guess it'll be cheaper for me to get the pistons, valves, and vavle springs only and have the rods milled 1mm on each side.
or my other option is just get JE pistons. im gonna stay all motor so what copression ratio do you guys recommend for a daily driver?
yeah, i did think its a bit too much at first but i just wanted to make sure.
thnx guys.

qbsi

oh btw, its for a b16.
i have ctr cams rite now. im regretting that i didnt get the ctr vavle trains with it thogh. should've spent that extra $$$ for it.
oh well. anyone have ctr vavle srpings and valves for sale?
im interested on the ecu also.

fowler!

If you are referring to CTR rods, you can't use them in any other B-series motor than the CTR, unless you destroke the motor.

qbsi

ok, i m gonna get just the pistons and the valve trains with the ecu. forget about the rods. dont think i need them.
thnx for the input guys.
