Unsure if its this or that and are these results any good?

Do you guys think this is the Aus Delivered or the Jap spec ones?

I am only asking as the pics I took were not very clear or the piston tops had not been cleaned before I took them.
I have had a look on MRB1's web site and it looks like the Australian delivered pistons. If so, this car is a Jap delivered hybrid from NZ.
I also did a compression test this afternoon and got the following results:
- From the piston nearest to the firewall to the front of the car:
130, 120, 130 and 120PSI
Are these results any good?????
cheers...all

:? the pistons say "T" on the top which means they have a 7.6:1 compression ratio which is aussie or UK as far as I know (where as the "Ts" have a 8.5:1) but I don't know about those pressure ratings, my previous staz was a euro spec which had 152psi per cylinder, I have just recently purchased a jap spec with 172psi per cylinder. So after all that I'm as lost as you :)
As far as starions in NZ go, we have NZ new ones, Jap imports and UK imports so it's a mixed bag really.

Watch your speed - It's virtually impossible to pick it out of the carpet if it gets blown off the table.
Hmmm...No1 looks a bit dodgy? Squirt some oil into number 1 and do the test again if it improves it's piston/rings if it does not it's a valve/head sealing issue.zaidja83 wrote:thanks MRB1. I did the test agin with full throttle got the following from No1 cylinder (front of the car) to No4 cylinder:
120, 140, 150 and 140PSI
No1 looks very low compared to the others. What do you guys think?
I found an old compression test 155,150,148,152psi.

why would full throttle, or any throttle for this matter?
i was told by a few people on here that i could compression test a motor with no manifolds.

compresion test
no manifold is the same as you do is with full throttle
