Are you sure they're bigger (did you measure them) or did you just try and slide them in yourself?
Stock wristpins are an inteference fit (i.e. press fit) pin. You would need to have a shop press them in for you.

$60 here........
$30 to press the PM7 off the D16 rods, $30 to press them onto the D15Z1 rods.

sorry guys, maybe its out of topic but still related with P29 piston..
i wanna ask about P29 oversize,
i wonder if there're PM7/P29 pistons with oversize bigger than 1.00 ? are there?
what if i wanna overbore 1.50 until 2.00 ? any suggest of high comp. pistons beside aftermarket pistons

That is highly un-recomended as the stock sleeves are not meant to be oversized that much. There are no stock pistons available for any Honda to my knowledge that go more than .5 over stock size. In order to go wider, you need to sleeve the block and run aftermarket pistons.
