??. Cast pistons (si-al eutectic) are absolutely preferred unless your boosting or running nitrous. BTW the NISSAN OEM CHINA filter is junk, too small and poorly engineered - dont run it. There is almost NO oil flow clearance around the fiberboard endcaps - esp for overly thick "track" oil. And China filter paper will always be suspect regardless of Nissan QA/QC. Run a low efficiency filter.
I'm fairly certain that this is a Twin Turbo Z, therefore using forged pistons makes sense.
