Recieved my pistons today, needed coup back on the rd so could`nt wait 6 week for cp`s and sods law as soon as you buy something there is a group buy on it for a fraction of the price tuningI`l let you know how they go,as these seem un tested in a coupe,

Look at the chap in Ireland, he had 300lbs and his rods went through his block. You will be using old rods on a more powerful engine, for the sake of a grand, get the reliability or expect to pay more, when the engine decides to go. There are a couple of people on here that wished they had forged rods in the begining, but didn't want to of the cost and eventually ended up getting forged rods. Do it once, do it right

when my engine went last month i was only going to get the pistons, but decided i would prefer to be without the car for a tiny bit longer and get the rods and do it properly. i don't think it's worth the risk

I think those pistons look lovely on that glass and (forged?) chrome table, it'll be a shame to hide them away inside the engine, why don't you sell them off as decorative ornaments?
