Like they said on that groupbuy page, for final fitment of the piston you need to get the sleeves honed. Standard work for every rebuild which is properly done on a machine.

You'll need the JE pistons. 9:1 compression is their standard off the shelf H22a turbo piston. The pistons come with the wrist pin and retaining clips. You'll also need rings. This is where I'm a little confused. I didn't get rings with my JE pistons (even though I ordered them) so I planned to just use stock rings, but I've heard the stock rings don't fit JE pistons. I'm going to have to research that. Anyone know about this? And you'll need the rods.

Who's putting your engine back together? They'll need Honda bearings and new gaskets. I think that's about it. You probably want to get all the crap done to the engine that you can think of while it's out. Oil pump, water pump, timing belt, new autotensioner, bleh...bleh.. bleh...
