i need to know the size of the connecting rod bearings in my 96 gsr.
acura sells the bearings only in colors and not sizes and they have no refrance of size to color. i need to know the sizes of the colors so i can get the right size ones for my crankshaft, otherwise i have to buy one of each color and find out wich one will fit my cars crankshaft and that will be a little costly.

can anyone help me?

have you looked at the #'s stamped on the block/ crank?
match them up and then you can get the colors (or approx.) that you need.

Like mmuller said, the bearing codes are stamped on the block. You can also try a set of ACLs which are the "middle OEM" size of green.

If you want to rebuild your engine right you should plastigauge your bearing clearances using your old bearings as a reference of size. And then order new bearings according to your measurements, depending on if you need a smaller or bigger clearance.
