I'm looking for a set of stock 94mm/2.0 4cyl. piston rings. I see that there are a number of quality manufacturers out there Mahle, Hastings, Goetze, etc. still making them, but who sells them?
The usual suspects seem to have most everything else, but not 94mm. Thanks in advance! Konrad |

Autohausaz.com has them but they want $19.70 per cylinder for Goetze. AA Performance Products has Grant rings for $30 per set. I used the Grant rings.

If you have stock pistons I would look @ what Perry has ,Goetze rings are proven I have seen 'break in" issues with aftermarket rings,I have the Hasting set in one of my T4 motors and had no issues so far,there are things to consider.
To me its all about careful measurement of the piston ring grooves ,bore specs and correct ring gap in the same,I think that's where some go wrong with used pistons and barrels,good luck. |

that's what I do! Group: Members Posts: 20,065 Joined: 27-December 02 From: Port Hope, Ontario Member No.: 26 Region Association: Canada |
I've used several sets of Deve's rings with good results, you can get them from aircooled.net
Goetze rings are hard as hell, takes at least 1000 miles to seat proper. But they work good once seated. Hastings are good. Grant are OK if on a low budget, but I hate the funky oil control ring spacer. IMHO it's only about $30 more for better rings. |
