PC'ed pistons and rods for more power, lower heat and better tolerances?

So i picked these up on the cheap. They claim to have better tolerances, lower IAT, better compression and hold up just like forged pistons and rods.

I picked them up here: http://kalecoauto.com/







But in actuality, not really. I picked these up from Craigozippers back in early 08 with plans to make a clock. I finally got around to pc'ing them. These came out of his old VQ35de motor when he was turboed. They were just a bit dirty!

I will do some detail work with some flat black paint to help give them some contrast.

Potential clock layout:

Going to order some 17" clock hands, cover them in CF. I will also use an old UR crank pulley as the center movement. Ill have to get an actual clock movement for it to go on.

Im also contemplating a backboard for everything so that its one piece. Cover it in CF as well and trim it out with some metal or wood.

Any FI guys got some stock parts laying around that they dont want or would like PC'ed for a similar project? LMK

clock movement/hands will be here shortly. Gotta decide if i want to CF the hands or paint them orange like a tach needle. Also found my old UR crank pulley that im gonna try to use in the center.

seriously? As a top tuner in the VQ world im surprised you havent heard of these :)

These a direct drop ins, dont even worry about cylinder wall clearances, balancing or refilling my oil when your done. Theyre self lubricating and dissipate heat so well you wont need coolant either. So in essence, they eliminate headlift issues, oil pump issues and a 5th gear tranny grind.

What more could you ask for?:cool:

You beat me to it!!

Cux350z Jan 8, 2009 05:13 PM

If you guys happen to have any of those parts laying around ill gladly see if they can be PC'ed.

A fw would make a nice center piece

Sharif,

Please ship my old flywheel, spec-2+ clutch and previous suspension parts to be pc'd. I think all of my old parts are still in the "blue tub" at the back of shop, just to the right,... then take a left,.... sitting just under the old g35 front end just center of that old ricer spoiler you took off the other car,... yes, send him that one along with XKR's old crankshaft. :icon17:
