Hey guys, im a newbie here but i got an important question i need help with fast! I got my integra at CCI motorsports right now. the guy building my engine has kept telling me he can get me "this and that" for a little more money... and so far everything has been good... BUT he told me instead of the type R pistons I Was going to use he could get me some JE pistons so I said alright. anyways... i went to check things out today and i looked at the pistons... to me they just didnt seem to be what JE pistons should be... they said PR4 on the top and I know stock pistons have the markings on the top... but do the JE pistons have this marking? If anyone has some pics of PR4 pistons, JE pistons and type R pistons or any advice please PLEASE let me know. bluespeed33@yahoo.com Thanks guys and please only leave info that you know for a fact is true... any info on how to tell pistons apart. thanks!

 

PR4 pistons are OEM LS pistons. Type R pistons would say P73. JE pistons would not fit stock rods, and would look similar to this depending on comrpession height:



You're getting scammed.

 

Hey, well they arent stock rods they are eagle H beam... and i saw those for sure... but the compression is (supposedly) 11.5:1 do u know what that would put out on a compression test? thanks again!

 

You're positive they are Hbeams? They wouldn't fit OEM PR4 pistons.

 

Master Yodub is right homie. Sounds like dude is taking you for a ride. Stick with your original plan if you can and have words with that guy, get management involved. Any possibilty for exposure to getting them recognized as a shotty business is bad news for them. So if in doubt make a stink.

 

Yea man, Im def going down there this week, before he puts it all togather... and ill talk to the boss of the shop if he doesnt listen to me. and if he tries to pull some shit on me ill be getting alot more money to fix my car up haha
