Nitto Forged Pistons - Toyota 1JZ-GTE - Chaser / Cresta / Mark II (JZX90 / JZX100) / Soarer (JZZ30) / Supra (JZA70)
Nitto forged pistons for the Toyota 1JZ-GTE, the 2.5L turbo six found in the Chaser, Cresta, Mark II, Soarer and JZA70 Supra. They are a strong replacement for the factory pistons in boosted street, drag and drift builds that run well past stock power.
This set is made in a single 86.5 mm (+0.020") bore with a 0.866" (22 mm) pin and a -5 cc dished crown.
Nitto sets the specification and CP Carrillo in California forges and machines each piston from low-silicon 2618 aluminium using its Turbo HD forging. Every set includes a PVD-coated ring set that seals the bore well under boost while reducing friction against the cylinder wall, along with CP's 9310 wrist pins, which are hardness tested, case hardened and cryogenically treated. Forced double pin oiling, anti-detonation grooves and accumulator grooves are standard.
Note: Installation by a professional is recommended. Engine internals must be measured and set up by a qualified engine builder.
