many will recommend Arias Extreme Duty pistons and Pauter rods. JE pistons and Carrillo rods are also good choices (depending on budget).

For my engine build, I went with Wiseco pistons and Eagle rods because my hp goals are 475 - 500 whp with rev limit at 7000 rpm.

It all depends on whether that extra money is worth your piece of mind...Arias and Pauter are going to be the likely recommedations from most of the experts around here.

Just do a little bit of searching on here because this is a popular topic and I'm sure you can find all your answers with all the great threads around the forums!

Good luck

I went with Arias Extreme duty pistons 9:1 CR, and the Eagle rods. The Eagle rods are fine for 550rwhp and about half the price of the Pauter rods.

I have the JE Pistons and Pauter rods and will be aiming for over 600whp.
I am sure you will get many different recommendations but like others have said, check out JE, Arias, Pauter, Wiseco and Eagle. These appear to cover various price ranges and have fairly good recommendations.

Any forged set will work for those goals and beyond

You could get wisecos pistons and eagle rods for under a grand total and be fine.

I chose Arias and eagles on my setup. Eagles should be good for at least 700 whp and for half the price of pauters, it is a no brainer IMO. If you want overkill peace of mind, I might go with cosworth pistons and rods

You are in good hands. Sharif and Tonydg ( AKA Wld350Z ) were building FI 350z's in early 2004. And both guy's are very precise about the craftsmanship put into every car.

If you use the search function ( with AmyCroft as posting ) and go way back ( any DATE ) , you will see photo's of Tonydg and Sharif installing the first of the Greedy TT's

Cheers Amy -
