Is it true that they come with 5/16 bolts while the GSR gets 3/8's because if thats true then that stinks.

 

up

 

you can order them with the larger bolts just make sure whoever is doing the ordering that you get the right ones.

This is an extremely expensive bolt and was incorporated in that rod in order to save weight. Most B16 Pauter rods wind up in Baja class cars that must run a B16 motor. Those guys require a bad *** rod that will take a beating and live and they all use Pauters.
You must remember there are $2 bolts and there are $20 BOLTS
