Ok assuming we are talking about a trim model that has the most pistons, probably a T2, how many are there?






And this is not a joke . If each wheel has four piston calipers then there are at least sixteen pistons on the car. Is there anything else on the car that uses pistons? At least this way I am not lying when someone asks me how many pistons the car has

 

yep i was thinking 16 for the TII also.

Unless you're a total gayass your car would have more because you swapped a V8 in her. that's sad :-(

well, there are 4 for each of the front wheels. each rear caliper is 1 piston.

 

Id say 12..

Two 4-piston from calipers, each rear caliper is single pistons, a piston in the brake master and a piston in the clutch master.

 

don't forget the pistons in master and clutch cylinders

 

travis back from the dead huh?

 

Ok so for all the math whizzers out there, how many cc's and or ci's do all these 'pistons' add up to?

 

ah screw that... my head hurts.... =\

you need to stop doing so many drugs my friend and just be happy you drive a car that has a wankel in it.

 

there is no 4 piston rear calipers, i would say 13 cause the slave cylinder that bolts on top of the tranny also has a piston in it

 

No offense but this is a stupid thread. There is also atleast one piston that acts in a similar manner to a thermostat for oil.

 

my car has 6 rotors
