Hey guys, dropping in from Canada and have a few questions.
I am currently heading up a rebuild on an R34 NUR block I built last year currently in an R32. I have located a few options when it comes to pistons and wanted some real first hand information.
Backstory on the block, is the N1 pump blew and pistons 1 and 6 melted.
Before the block blew, it was tuned reliably to 575AWHP at 1.8BAR with 700cc SARD injectors at 100% duty cycle. The tuning was done by Eric Hsu at XS Engineering in California.
Old block specs were
-Brand new R34 NUR block
-ARP head studs
-ATI race damper
-GT2860r-5's
-TOMEI con-rod bolts
-TOMEI 1.2MM HG
-TOMEI manifolds and dumps
-TOMEI Type B poncams
-PowerFC ECU
I will be using the following to rebuild the block.
-current NUR con-rods
-TOMEI con-rod bolts
-TOMEI oil pump
-TOMEI 1.2mm HG kit (with intake and exhst gaskets)
-ARP head studs
-SARD 1000cc injectors
Right now I am deciding the TOMEI pistons and the HKS pistons. The HKS pistons a fair bit cheaper. Also, what pros are there to get the titanium coated option (available on both Tomei and HKS).
I want to build this block to handle over 600AWHP reliably, which I don't see being a problem looking at the prior build specs and what it put out on the stock cast NUR pistons.
Thanks!
