anyone had experience with the pistons from alert engine parts?
these auto power or power torque?

For a set of 6 for my RB30 motor they are R800 opposed to nissan genuine which are R8500 for 6 standard pistons

- nissan have lost the plot.

how would the quality compare to the nissan ones?

I have used alert before, Nice, good service and cheap allot of spares place's buy from them.

Try the pistons out , Im not sure how they will handle boost but I wouldn’t spend R8500 on piston unless its forged

The nissan version for R8### wil also be for a n/a motor so no point in spending that. Get the alert jobbies and have then ceramic coated.
