you can buy forged pistons for 350-400 from flatlander-ipp.com including rins, clips and pins
then the fitting prices vary place to place mate

Depends if there is any damage to the bore also, that could make it a little more expensive

well oil is leaking all over my engine bay over the bonnet intercooler round near dump valve when i start the car there is blue smoke and when car is running and take oil cap off there is smoke puffin out with quite a bit of pressue the person who looked at it said he 99% sure its a damaged piston.

If det caused the problem (JDM import?) then it could cause more issues later (stress down the crank) so if your lucky it may just be a piston, as i have already said it could cause damage to the bore, it can lead to big end bearing failure but most of all, why did the piston fail in the first place?
