  1. i would more into the maxspeeding rods but only way of getting them is buy posting overseas, the money id pay on import duty and other fees will probably be half the amount i pay for the rods lol!!
  2. you make a good point dude, I found a package deal for wossner pistons with the PEC rods for fairly cheap so i was leaning more over to that direction
  3. i guess so, I just cant afford to have a set of rods go on me Im going to be skint just buying the bits, lucky im rebuilding the engine myself, got all the machine work covered where i have an engineering workshop in my garage so my budget is a little tight, i didnt plan on going forged, only due to my pistons going bye bye
  4. thats interesting, how much wider are they then if they catch? surely they should be designed so they dont? O_o
  5. after seeing that picture its scaring me haha how much boost is over boosting though? i run a bar boost on ct9, doesnt creep
  6. thats fair enough just interested in few other peoples inputs maybe from past experience or anything
  7. ah right, any opinions from other people who have ran them or seen them run?
  8. okay so im definitely not getting them lol
  9. but how would anyone even be able to create that kinda damage lol?! im going to be running my stock ct9 for a while
  10. tried doing a bit of research on these rods but cant find too much, only the odd person say "I have these and theyre fine"
  11. I Pm'd him about half hour ago mate cheers though
  12. before i pay out for new ones would be interested in seeing if anyone has any for sale second hand or something.....
  13. at least one of them survived the bores look alright, the rest of the engine looks pretty mint
  14. just reading that JE pistons go with the standard rods, theyre £550 which isnt too sad i dont think!!
  15. Im not quite in the position to go the whole way, not yet anyway :/
  16. whats the difference? cant you make the oem pins fit? found some wossners for £400 brand new and thought itd be a shame not to buy them
  17. having a look at wossner pistons, says they use a floating gudgeon pin that can only be used with the PEC or wossner rods, so how have the standard rods been used before?
  18. feel......so......sad.......need.........forged.....internals
  19. to settle this conversation, finally got round to getting the head off, gasket was fine, sump off, 3 cracked pistons
  20. well it certainly is putting up a good fight right now haha :/
  21. yeah its been glued to fuck :/ just curious in case i damaged it while something else was bolted up, cheers buddy ill try it now
  22. finally got round to getting my engine apart today, took all the bolts out from the sump, sure theres like 10 or something, the thing wont budge, how the hell do i get it off? or am i doing it wrong lol.....
