Anyone recognise these pistons?
I stripped down my engine last night after it had a front end impact to the cam pulleys - The previous owner had advised me the engine had been rebuilt with forged internals.
These pistons don't look like the OEM ones I've had in other WRX's & UK 2000 Turbos
Anyone have any idea what make they are? They have "HB" on the top of them
Thanks in advance

^What he said. They're cast EJ205 pistons. 99MY or newer. The "whole engine" is not out of an STi on that basis Mark. If the block has the same (or the same spec) pistons it was originally built with, the fact that it's open deck is the giveaway.
