Default How much are standard EJ257 pistons worth?

As above really. I have some brand new pistons removed from my new EJ257 by Zen performance.

Obviously includes rings and everything needed to fit.

As dunx said,

I just threw my pistons and rods in the bin when they were removed to make way for forged ones.

I am in shock. Put these on Ebay. £10 until the last minute and then a bidding war took them to £48 plus £10 delivery.



Maybe a good idea not to throw them in the bin if you have a set.

Lol i take it that was your set that just sold on the bay?

Well you did say it had no miles on it from what i can remember? And i believe you will find that majority of the people bidding only wanted the original pistons rings....
