lol, iv heard!

I would literally start with HKS. Find out from their site (use the translate tool) or from USA distributor of HKS gear, the rings that comes with pistons. The manufacture or reseller should be able to tell you.

I say this, a ring land is a hectic environment, with the manufacture accounting for a specific material, design etc. People do use random 3rd party rings, but often have mixed results.

Good luck dood

you need new rings every time the cylinder has been bored or honed. if you are running 87mm pistons you need new rings as well - and I'm very surprised the pistons did not come with rings. find an HKS distributor and get them ordered in.

Yes the engine I bought had hks pistons 87mm with some black coated at the bottom of the piston... also the engine had hks rods and cams!

So I just break everything down to check everything.. and to make some things that I read hear.. external oil return etc..!

I bought it with NISMO oil pump with early R32 crank!! Haha.. ofcourse I put jun crank collar!

I take the head and block for a "flatten" the faces and for a "brush" the cyllinders and I don't know if I need rings or no :(

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up

      You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
