fourbarrel said:There is a factory coating on the 00-02 pistons but other than that there is no other difference.
9801srx said:the coating is on the 98-99 pistons to. there the same in every way. the coating is just around the ring area and the center of the dome on the piston.
9801srx said:ya the price difference is more dealer related than anything,some places the 98 piston is $10.00 more than the 01 piston. my wifes 98 has had 2 01 pistons and 1 98 piston for the past 10000km,s and still hauls ***.
9801srx said:i thought the same a few years back so i compared the two. same in all dimensions the weight is the same +/- 0.25 gram . the compression difference if any is in the heads the 00-02 head are a little tighter but this was done to gain back the slight compression loss from the slightly higher exh port on the 00 and up cyl's.
