• The pistons are made of heat resistant, highly conductive aluminium alloy.
• Offset pistons are used to reduce piston-slapping noise.
• To prevent the piston from being reassembled in the wrong direction, an F mark is located on the side of piston.
• The ZJ engine model piston has valve recesses on the intake side. The ZY engine model has valve recesses on the intake and exhaust sides.
• The compression ratio of the ZJ (Miller Cycle Engine) is increased in comparison to the ZJ by flattening the pitted part of the piston top.

• The following piston rings have been adopted: A barrel face ring for the top ring, a taper-under cut ring for the second ring, two side rails and an expander for the oil ring. Also, low tensile load each piston rings have been adopted for friction reduction and fuel consumption improvement.
• The piston pin is made of chrome steel alloy with superior rigidity.
