Namura pistons

piston & stick shouldn't be used together!!

Always been a big fan of Art. I suppose they are as good as any.

I have heard of them though.

Cast pistons.

Usually manufactured in the same factory and to the same specs as stock, for less dough.

Good quality. I used to work for a company that distributed them and we had some loyal users who loved them and extremely few returns or failures.

Art is a big OEM supplier. Stock shit works.

On my turbo, I have the domes ceramic coated.

Are you really saving from OEM? Just curious.

Most times, no. I'll be honest, I've never seen the use of moly coated skirts make a difference, and if you look under most OEM pistons, they have the manuf name stamped/cast in.

At one time, you could buy ART pistons direct cheaper if you bought I think 6 or more. That was easy.. Then it got popular and dealer OEM was then same thing same price really.

Whatever happend to Pro-X and Niks pistons? The were cast and I think some aftermarket shops sold them.

SPI was or is a OEM supplier too that had moly skirts. I seized/broke quite a few, and for me if ART is good enough for OEM, its good enough for me.

For some reason, I think Namura is a rebranded SPI, I could be mistaken.

I know Art supplies the stock kawi 450 pistons.
