I have been looking for a set of pistons for an 18R-GEU. i phoned all the toyota dealerships in brisbane, and i found that the GEU pistons are very different to the G pistons. the g pistons are dome top and square where the pin goes through the skirt and i believe they have a compression ratio of 9.7:1 . the GEU pistons are flat top and have no flat areas where the pin meets the skirt. both sets of pistons have fly cuts for the valves which is what sets them apart for the 18R-C pistons. the delima i face is that i need the GEU pistons for the lower compression ratio as i am turbo charging the engine, and i cant machine the G pistons as that would weaken the crown and i would burn holes in them. does anyone have any ideas about wot i could do? i cant get the GEU pistons from anywhere in bris, i found a set of G pistons that are 40thou OS but cant use them.
