Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your Nissan CA18DET for serious performance, a set of forged pistons is a critical component. These JE Pistons are designed specifically for the CA18DET engine, offering a robust solution for builds pushing beyond stock power levels. With a compression ratio of 8.5:1, they are well-suited for boosted applications where detonation resistance is key.

JE Pistons has been making forged pistons for over 75 years, and they build these right here in the USA using 2618 aluminum. This material gives them the high tensile strength needed to handle the demands of performance engines. They feature a proprietary Forged Side Relief (FSR) design, which helps reduce friction and skirt wear, and they come with a flat top design. This kit includes everything you need to get them installed: high-quality wrist pins, locks, and JE Pro Seal premium piston rings.

Because these are custom-designed for the CA18DET, you can expect them to fit right and perform reliably. They are not approved for sale in California due to emissions regulations.
