Need Help

Post by antiguaITR »

I have a 98 JDM Type R that I drag down here in Antigua. I want to up the compression a bit and am looking at the Toda Pistons that will take my compression to 12.3: 1 I spoke to my mechanic and sounds like I have to replace my rods also. Is this correct that I have to change the type R rods and if so what would you guys recommend? I am also open for your opinions regarding pistons. Thanks in advance.

I would go with CP pistons they seem to be the best out there. as for rods it depends on what you want to rev the car to, but while you have it apart I would upgrad so you don't have to do it 2 times later.
