ebay nippon pistons, (seriously?)
 
hey, i was wondering just how good these are?


http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISA...&rd=1


i have heard good and bad things about nippon racing, but i dont have the money to build my motor, and 150 bucks shipped for 9:1 pistons and rings sounds pretty damn good. if i were to vent my crankcase and run up to 10 psi, how long do you guys think these would last? i know they arent forged or anything, but do you honestly think i should be okay with these?

You would be perfectly fine rock stock with 10 lbs of boost and a good tune, why spend the money on "pistons" instead of just doing it stock and using that cash for a chipped ECU.

Another option is to go with Vitaras. Not forged, but cast. Very nice, people are running 350whp and 12's with these. I'm picking mine up from a local tomorrow. 50 for pistons, rings, and wrist pins. There's a guy on here (forgot his name) that sells them for like 125 shipped with rings. You can also get them oversized, I think like 100 bucks .04 over or something... Look him up and talk to him, should you decide to get cheap pistons.
