About this part

Product Details

This JE Pistons kit gives you a complete set of eight forged pistons, along with high-quality wrist pins, locks, and JE Pro Seal premium piston rings. These pistons are built for the Nissan VK56VD engine, featuring a 3.898-inch bore and a 7.90 CC inverted dome/dish volume. They are forged in the USA using 2618 aluminum, a material chosen for its high tensile strength, which is essential for engines pushed to their limits in racing or high-performance applications.

JE Pistons has incorporated their proprietary Forged Side Relief (FSR) design, which helps minimize friction and power loss by using a reduced skirt width. This design, along with a shorter wrist pin, also contributes to saving weight. Depending on the specific application, these pistons may also feature an accumulator groove to help manage combustion gas pressure, improving ring seal for more consistent power delivery. Additionally, a skirt coating, if included for this application, further reduces friction and wear on the piston skirts and cylinder walls, while also helping to quiet down operating noise.

These pistons are designed specifically for the VK56VD engine and its intended use, aiming for optimized performance and durability. It's important to note that this kit is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. For installation, always refer to the manufacturer's detailed instructions to ensure proper fitment and performance.
