i was chatting to a lad with a thoughtfully modded 200SX (later spec) and he said that there was aplace that does ceramic coatings for pistons and they "gaurntee" no detonation!! £25 a piston
what are your views on this
he said it could be done on a any piston,

if it had been the 150BHP the it would have been a close thing,
and remeber the lad by me, T35 straight on the 150BHP 2.0, same compression, dead basic, and it made 310BHP!!!!!
do it now

ben recieved a few emails, last one said about possible front damage, and thats not the case, he said it was a heavy rear,
lastest thinking on my part after much deliberation today is that i will take the rocker cover off and inspect the cams for wear, if they look slightly worn then i can...
