just out of curiousity, what exactly would dropping a grand into pistons do performance wise? or is it just prep for more boost and or nitrous?

High compression pistons will give you a little more power..but the best thing would probably be to go low compression and turbo.

Monkeywrenchracing has pistons as well -- big bore kit was $849 last I checked.

****BIG SIGH****....I wish there was a button i could push that said "Purchase" and it said "Congradulations, you have purchased this part.....you now have 999,999,999,199 credits left...." just like Gran Turismo or something......

Heh..if only...

I guess no one on the board has bought them? Honestly I'd probably just buy a 4AGZE and convert it to turbo, since it has upgraded internals and it's aready designed for FI.

Unfortunately, it won't fit too well in my '98..

sooo much talk, soo little action

isn't that the reality of the tuner scene? unfortunately... i know i talk sometimes too... so im no better...

at least they're not whining about the price TOO much..

just try selling things on a corolla board..

i'm aware...

Lol, yeah, no kidding.

^^^ yup, that's the one ^^^

funny stuff, i sold turbo gaskets for an EJ20 subaru engine on nasioc in 2 days, without one haggle or under-cut..

i think it's just the corolla people hehe

it's corolla/civic/cavalier people. the folks who tune low-end cars are generally young and poor or just incredibly cheap...and they whine about anything and everything.

well..... when some of us are able to build fairly decent cars with very little money... what do you expect?

people like me who go to junkyards and find *decent* parts at prices that should probably be 4-5X higher than it is..... and that being said i sell parts for way cheap as well (whatever i have on hand and people need)....

i mean.... shit, i've built my aw11 for less than most people spend on their turbo setups.....

If I had money to buy things all willy nilly like, I would have bought myself a 240sx and had an SR20 swap done when I was 16. That's not my reality though. Most of the people on this board are poor, or in college or something.

240's really aren't that expensive...... and some saving an sr20 really isn't that far away either...... i'm in college & have built the mr2 alright

things arent expensive if you blow all your money on it, but when your saving for the future then things seem to be expensive.

$6500 - Low mileage S14 that hasn't already been riced out
$3200 - S14 SR20 front clip
$2000 - Labor for swap
$1200 - Wheels
$600 - Tires
$1200 - Coilovers
$600 - Xenon projector retrofit
$2500 - System

$17,800 Total

That's how much I would end up spending on a 240sx, which really isn't that much money in the grand scheme of things, but I figure I'll wait until I graduate and get a job. Then I can build the car the way i really want to.

i've seen s14's way cheaper than that..... what sr20det clip you get determines price.... you can get them around as low as $1800..... actually do the work yourself & learn about the car......
