Ok im goin to rebuild my RB20DET cos ive started to get blow by cos of the stock rings not coping well with 190rwkw and abit of drag racing

anyway whats the best forged pistons and rings should i use ??

Ive heard people say this and that about aires, wiseco etc and total seal and N1 rings but as ive never rebuilt an engine before i dont know what i should buy

also if anyone know where they can get good forgies cheap in victoria send me a PM

Talk to Bill at Australian Precision Engine Parts in Wantirna - he'll build you a nice set of forgies (with total seal rings). He may need a sample to work from, but I can provide that if you need it.

Tomei make a decent set of forgies for an RB20, expensive i think.........im not sure, im in the same boat as u mate, im trying to build my RB20 and make similar power, but i want cranking torque coz im building mine specifically for drift.

I'l probly grab tomei's and stroke the car out to 2.4ltr so i can get a sh*tload of torque

or some 4AGE pistons instead of the tomei's, i think they are roughly the same size, just need a bit of modification, they are forged too. Or was it 4AGZE? can't remember, anyway, gonna need 2 engines for 6 pistons (obviously :mellow:)

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
