these right here from inline four for 250
http://www.inlinefour.com/il4peprpi.html

and same type 82mm pr3 from ebay seller droopy for 160
are they made by same manufacturer?

they look exactly same from the images

 

I believe the maker of the pistons is nippon.

 

so in other words i can save myself 90 dollars and buy the ebay ones instead?

 

I wont be so sure on that, do u have the ebay link?

 

Buy from CNS seller, i buy all my parts there and they are legit and cheap. They indeed sell same pistons as them i bought them before.

 

i belive the makers of inloine4 pistons are RS...lol, i have the same ones they picture...amd mine are RS pistons

thats who i used, great service

 

RS Machine are great pistons but they just seem to be getting more expensive these days.That ebay seller listed in this thread is great to deal with I have purchased a few sets from them and there freight to Australia was very well priced with very fast service.

 

After about 7-8000 km on my build with RS ITR copies my leakdown was <4% on all 4 cylinders. Very happy with my choice.

 

I had 12-14% leak after 100k miles with my Nippon pistons and NPR rings which I bought from an ebay seller. Not bad in my book.

 

same pistons...i had the very first set of RS ITR pistons on my old setup...ran strong for over 4 years...it was still pushing 230+ through the exhaust...couldn't be happier

 

I know this thread is kinda old, but I just wanted to chime in and say that our pistons are not identical to RS pistons. I don't know who or where they get them made, but we get our pistons manufactured to our specification. It is very possible that the manufacture may be the same, but I couldn't tell you. Our pistons are cast by the same manufacturer that manufactures them for American Honda Motor Co. and Honda of Japan Mfg.

There are other versions out there for less, but I cannot comment on their quality or level of longevity performance. However, no matter what you choose, it should work fine.

Hope this information helps.

Regards,

 

well it seems like RS machines are not that bad quality and are OEM specs as well. possibly made by same company. how exactly are yours different could you please provide some data?

 

subscribed because i want to know...

 

 

still waiting as well, would like to know.

 

Are your rings manufactured to the same specs as Honda?
