ok guys well ive got my block completely stripped down for my rb20 but where in the hell can i get some internals? i really dont wanna custom make any because that would take too long and be a killer for my bank roll. if anyone has any websites or numbers i can call to place an order on pistons rings rods bottom end bearings ect. maybe even some valvetrain that would be awesome. thanks guys

yeeahh i was at your point once but took the route that was easier on the bank roll . what i did was use stock pistons and rods , got the pistons coated with dry film on the sides and ceramic coated on the top. Rods were also factory, you can upgrade to "Spool" connecting rods , which is a company based out of Australia. As for bearings I used ACL race bearings , they make them specific for RB20 . The piston rings i got custom made ... yes custom made rings for RB20 because i could not find any in canada. anyways they came through a company called "Total Seal" . But if you really want to upgrade the size of your pistons i think CP makes custom pistons ( i think anyone else does anyways) but it comes down to the machine shop taking the measurments and forwarding it to them. Or if you have the tools and the confidence to do it yourself that works too but be prepared to throw down some benjamins.

as for valve train compnents ..although i didnt really touch my head except for it being ported and polished, the only thing i could find was 1mm oversize valves from Supertech. and it looks like supertech can provide you with the entire valve train components.

i just priced out all my friends internals. here's some websites to check:
rawbrokerage.com
google "hks special order parts" its the hks sub link. there alot on there.
tomeiusa.com- has alot
greddy.com- makes some.
cppistons.com- they make them but i think you got to call directly
nengun.com- pertty good amount
nyxracing.com- has alittle
240sxmotoring.com-has some
jgycustoms.com- decent amount
rb-performance.co.uk- decent amount
arp- makes all sorts of bolts and studs. believe you got to call tho
full-race.com- havent looked to much but mite have some stuff

something to remember, some stuff you wont find in rb20 like exhaust manifold. look up rb25 exhaust manifold bc its a direct bolt over. worse comes to worse, call a local shop and make them do all the searching. what i couldnt find i called my buddy at vivid racing and had him find it. hope this helps, happy hunting.
