I've found some now for £100 delivered including import duty.

Who needs to spend $750...

I have 260/252 8.5/9.0 cat cams and I have to idle at 1100 otherwise it runs like a bag of ****. If yours is running okay I'd leave it and besides how often is the car idling?!

I've matched my Fidanza flywheel on my AW11 with a Corolla T-sport clutch - fits the same. May be lighter than stock AW11 clutch kit but who knows. It offers an alternative anyway.

Sorry, I'm asking for the standard OEM 10.3 piston CC not the 9.4:1

I'm trying to get a hold of some geo prizm 10.3:1 pistons - any decent companies in the US?

That's odd because another thread on here shows the piston dome volumes in a table and that comes out as 2.1cc - i'm guessing it's not right?

Can anyone verify the CC of those pistons please?

Cheers

Does it change if they are oversize 0.040?

Anyone have one willing to ship to the UK?

Cheers

I've found some 10.3:1 pistons in the US from a Geo Prizm for $154 - not OEM obviously but seems very cheap. I did put NPR pistons in my current engine and have had no issues with those...wonder if they are worth a punt... http://www.ebay.com/itm/TC2989-020-DOME-TOP-Pistons-with-Rings-89-92-1-6L-TOY...

AW11 MR2 does not have power steering.

I've got one. Give me your zip code and i'll get you a postage cost.

Will send it for postage only as I don't need it.

I don't have a 7-rib block which is spare. Currently have it in my MR2 which I will not be using. Need a back up car which is the MR2 to my Peugeot.

Oh yeah I am not being ungrateful, I fully appreciate the advice given and I am not ignoring what you are saying. Just trying to work out what's for the best is all. What is the difference in weights between the two blocks? I didn't mean bore the rod end out, I meant bore the piston out to suit the ...

I need to weigh up if the smaller rods, smaller crank and 18mm pin pistons are a better alternative to spending money on bigger 20mm pin pistons and using the 42mm crank. I can get stock 42mm rods easily for £50 from a reliable source so that's not an issue. Is there anyway I could have the 18mm pin...

Thanks mate I've been told the engine was removed from a 1985 Corolla GT which is the euro spec. So many different bloody types! lol You guys may save me up to £1000!! just a heads up.... those are the 1/2mm O/S piston part numbers. My 140 whp engine is running those exact pistons (photo is mine - ...

Was the small port ever standard in the aw11?

It was original. The bloke is a Corolla nut

Thanks mate

Sorry can this advert be deleted until I decide what to do with these.

These pistons should have featured in the MR2 originally me thinks instead of the low comp pistons!

It seems that I have 10.1:1 bigport pistons which I originally thought to be 9.4:1 so that changes my idea completely.

Almost negates the need of expense on new pistons

They are out of a 85' corolla so surely they are 9.4:1?

That's why I was curious what your duties would be. £520 comes out to about $750 USD. Buying my pistons for $480 would leave $270 for duties. I sell the CP pistons for about $600. This company has to be paying duties on them so it seems like duties can't be that much. Any way you cut it $500 piston...

Yes that's what I meant.

I Had my deck height measured and its 0.25mm

Yoshi, I'd love your Pistons but the import duty will kill it.

oh, I stuck with the 0.2 deck

What numbers did you add in?

You mean you don't know? Lol

As far as I can see they are for standard valves.

Crown volume is 4.5

I've found a very good website in the UK that sells CP pistons.

Looking at 12.0:1 CP pistons for £520 which is cheaper than what I can import them for...

That coupled with a 1mm head gasket will bring me down to 11.75:1 ish which is a good CR for my current cams or the poncams I'm also looking at.

My free engine has had it's block completely stripped already. My 42mm crankshaft has been measured and it's absolutely all spot on. The left overs of the block, i.e. pistons, rods and crank are all spot on in terms of condition and tolerance. I am not using those conrods so they are being sold with...
