Yoda · 06-16-2012, 02:21 PM

There will be some lost due to the transmission but still there will be a very noticeable change in power.

packetrace · 06-16-2012, 05:24 PM

packetrace · 08-12-2012, 07:52 PM

cali yaris · 08-12-2012, 08:30 PM

The shop that is working on my car in Miami are incapable of getting the job done in a timely manner.
I am still waiting on the engine to be put together after they have had my car for five months. Very very aggregated by them and going to pick up the car this Saturday. I will be taking over the project from now on. Nothing but lies and false promises. Very disappointed.

That sucks. Get some engine assembly lube, feeler gauges, dial calipers and do it your self. Or find a quality engine builder. Someone who specializes in engine building. Make sure you have the piston and cylinder clearance checked closly. I have a lot of piston slap noise. Especialy when the engine is cold. It is making my nervous and Im not sure how this will effect reliaibility in the long run. The Cp pistons I bought are for a stock bore 1nzfe but I think they are to small. This seems to be a common problem with these pistons. The noise is only getting worse as the weather gets colder.

Bluevitz-rs · 08-22-2012, 08:15 AM

There's a difference in the way cast pistons (OEM) expand vs. forged (CP). So the cold fitment is different causing more piston slap when cold.

Pimp, does the problem go away once up to temp?

cali yaris · 08-22-2012, 09:29 AM

Yoda, which shop is it?

If they were too small, and the right measurements were made, wouldn't you know that before you put them in? What tolerances did you use when you put the motor together?

Mine was done by a professional engine builder, as you suggested. So I'm curious to learn more about how you did it.
