well i have got the rods to fit the silver top, only payed £250 for them brand new with arp bolts so didnt think that was to bad. yeah i think the pistons are wossner, so what do people suggest for pistons then that will fit the silver top rods that i have as at £550 for the pec ones i do think they are abit expensive.

Have you had any experience with them, or heard any bad stories? i havent seen may people use them to know what quality they are, the car will be running about 320bhp if that makes a difference, cheers

well not heard any stories about either,but ive looked at the pec ones before and the accralites.
i know when i buy mine i shall be getting the accralites,i know they come from a reputable seller of tuning parts,and are an established brand i believe,and thats what matters to me.
