Simple answer.

Isuzu Hombre LN2 2.2L has 89mm bore 3mm thick oil control rings

Nissan 8/84-90 Z24 has 89mm bore 2mm 1st ring

Nissan 720 Pickup diesel SD23 1/83-8/87 has 89mm bore and 2mm 2nd ring

The above assumes that the depth and shape of the grooves is the same -- big assumption.

It might be easier to just contact a company like Deves and tell them what you need. Alternatively to buy a new set of pistons with matched rings -- might be cheaper and quicker.
