Gabe, he's saying if you go any larger than 88mm on your pistons you will have to get rid of the water jackets in the block. I'm not too sure on the specifics of the sr20 block and the piston sizes, etc. But you're better off asking Luis or an engine builder about that stuff who's familiar with the SR20 platform.
Or Touge could re-iterate for you in detail.

Gabe, I think the one you're looking at buying is the same one I'm getting (actually I'm getting the 64 not the 70) there is a thread on the nissan road racing forums right now with someone who has one and we're all eagerly waiting to see if this is a better setup than the famed gt28 setup zilvia loves so much.
I'm just going to skip the t25 route and go right into the same territory as yourself without all of the stroker madness.

If I read correctly in someones for sale thread the OS Geiken internals are like 3500 bucks, will also slightly change your gear ratios. However someone on zilvia is selling this exact upgrade for 2500 bucks.

Yeah I am interested in trying out the VE head setup but so much money is required to fit it, it's almost not even worth the cost. It's just how much more money do I have hanging out of my ass.
