Cheers, I have been in touch with Gorilla, waiting on a reply. Looking for 87mm OEM style but forged if they cant be sourced.

stick with 86.5mm if your bores clean up at .5mm os

Going to 87mm for larger capacity, increased comp ratio as well. Already have 264 Ex cam and 272 In cam, pulling engine down to port heads, balance crank, forged rods etc. I know 87mm is at the limit for the bores, vehicle is just a weekend car that does no more than 2 or 3 thousand kms a year, don't want to turbo it as I want it all motor.

2045cc> 2022cc is hardly worth it imho.

Yeah not much of an increase hey, but it will increase airflow, port velocity and torque at lower revs which is the main aim. Anyway back to the original question, do you know who can supply/get what Im after?

other than whats already been mentioned, amayama, sqengineering.

but do you want std toyota pistons or forged with increased cr?

and if you go forged you could also look at custom length rods to change the rod stroke ratio.

I think there was a mob in aus which made itbs to bolt straight onto the inlet manifold of the gen3 once you removed the acis section

Cheers thanks for that, I would use std Toyota 87mm pistons or OEM replacements if I could find them, would go forged if I had to. I know Wossner do a forged 87mm but at 12.5:1 its probably outside using 98 RON fuel safely.
