Default anyone here use nippon pistons or rings???

i'm doing a low budget d16z6 rebuild and i found a set of new ZC pistons with wrist pins and rings for a good deal, so has anyone used any pistons or piston rings made by nippon?? i have heard they are made in the same factory as the OEM pistons but i dunno


also if i use some used ZC piston can i re-use the wrist pins??

NPR rings are of very high quality and their piston should be as well.

m22's are pretty bad ***. I just raced a Subaru Impreza RS and was able to pull a couple car lengths on it in an LSVTEC Integra once the tires got done roasting at 9k rpms.

I would do ACL's. IMO, stay away from King bearings for Honda's, never used them but I don't won't to find out.
