I liked the PICs a lot when I had them on my car before sending them to Ryan, but if I had the choice, there would be no choice. I'd grab the N1s.

It's not that I was saying PIC or any Taiwan stuff trumps Spoon, just me personally I couldn't spend that much on something used with unknown mileage from an unknown source when you can still buy a quality product brand new. If it was somebody on here selling them then it would be a different story.Doespike wrote:Overnight from Japanitr #1334 wrote:Joe get em.

Yeah, I hear ya on being cautious...I have a hard time spending that kind of money on something from someone I don't know or even heard of. Spoon >>> PIC.

I've been keeping my eyes out for a set of N1s on Upgarage's website but no luck when I check. My friends have gotten quite a few sets of coilovers from there and all have been in good condition. The only problem with getting stuff from Japan is having someone to ship it here.

Just FYI - I've had parts from Hong Kong arrive in 9 business days with standard shipping. I always like to communicate that I'm best of friends with the Ninja Turtles so they better not try to screw me over.

Well Upgarage doesn't ship, so the only way to get stuff from them is to be in Japan.

Quick buyers advice requested. I guess Honda Japan quit producing ITR pistons as I was going to have JDM ITR pistons put in, so do you think I should go USDM or CTR pistons (that may be a little much)?
Re: The OT place for OGs to BS w/o BS.
Posted: June 1st, 2010, 6:55 pm
CTR pistons will bump you up to around 12.5-13:1 CR. require tuning and probably cams. I know jack has been wanting to try some out on an otherwise stock motor though.

Get in touch with Matt @ ICB for JDM ITR Pistons. Like Erik has already said, CTR's are probably more than what you are looking for in terms of compression. JDM P06 are also an option to consider.

Yeah I knew they'd be way too much that's why I was leaning towards the JDM ITR piston... I just tried calling ICB but no answer.
Re: The OT place for OGs to BS w/o BS.
Posted: June 1st, 2010, 7:18 pm
fuxor, they're definitely done. Tried HMO, JHP, I4 and ICB; no dice. Will probably just go back to OEM.
Re: The OT place for OGs to BS w/o BS.
Posted: June 1st, 2010, 7:27 pm
Let me check with Nolan to confirm. I would still consider looking into the JDM P06's. Dave_B has those in his car.
Re: The OT place for OGs to BS w/o BS.
Posted: June 1st, 2010, 7:35 pm
P30's are lighter than the ITR and CTR pistons and should yield you about 11.4:1 compression. What are the P06's out of?
