Spec for top ring is: (0.0118 - 0.0157) Service Limit: (0.0394)
Second ring: (0.0138 - 0.0178) Service Limit: (0.0413)
Oil ring: (0.0051 - 0.0150) Service Limit: (0.0386)

is this the same with 2JZGE?

Yea put 1 ring in. take a piston with rod, and push it in there then take your feeling gauges and measure it. Push the ring in just so about half to the whole piston goes in.
