Well...... im rebuilding our h23/vtec from last year and now im in the market for some piston rings! I used oem honda rings last year because I had a pretty good hook up at a local Honda dealership. To make a long story short, the guy that gave me all the hook ups no longer works there and I need rings! I was just wondering if anyone has had any experience with Hastings piston rings or any other brand besides oem honda. I would "bite the bullet" and go buy some honda rings, but the finances went to other things on the car. Just trying to get some feedback before i spend some dough. Keep in mind this is a FRM sleeved h-series block.... thanks for the help!!!

 

I just put some Hastings rings in my buddy’s b16. The rings were already gapped and I didn’t even have to file them down (after checking the gaps of course). No problems with the motor. Thing runs great, and doesn’t burn any oil.

yeah im considering hondaautomotiveparts.com but after shipping and that handling fee.........they come to about the same price i can get them for at a dealership in my area. i jus wanted some feedback about some other piston rings before i make a purchase.
