Full Version: Had some german piston sets offered to me

So one of my friends in South Africa knows i like 914s and recently bought out a parts warehouse that had a fairly large stock of Euro and Dished 94mm P/C sets, along with some other hard parts. He asked me if i was interested in the type 4 stuff.

I'm wondering what german sets, 94 Euro's in particular, would need to be sold at to be attractive options over chinese cheapies or KB 96's.

I think the $1000 tag i've seen elsewhere is prohibitively high. KB's with 96's would normally cost me around $450 for pistons and honing.


gut feeling on a reasonable price?

I think they will sell, but slowly. I still have customers that ask about OEM 94s. the AA 96 flat tops run $270 a set.

most are in favor of the increase in displacement

agree.gif unless there's a reason you absolutely must have the 94s, most people will chose the 96s, and with a mild cam, they can keep the stock FI.

Do you have them for sale?
I might go for it if the price is right and the pin placement is correct.

They are in SA still. I'm waiting on an inventory sheet to see whats what and how much is available. If i buy and ship over here it would be a ways out still, so don't get excited or anything. First I have to decide if its worth the investment.
