Default Pistons and rods for an ITR motor?

When ordering pistons and rods for a B18C5 (ITR motor, duh ), can I run aftermarket pistons for a GSR motor? Or do I need ITR-specific pistons?

What about the rods? Can I just buy Eagle/Manley/whatever rods for a GSR crank, and run them on the ITR crank?

Size wasn't the issue. Piston design for the different heads is (GSR vs. ITR/B16 head).

any gsr(94+) rods will work on an itr crank.

any forged piston will work on a gsr(94+)/itr.

Good to know. I'm using the yellow hatch you guys built as a springboard for build ideas.

Yeah definitely! Did you guys run ACL or OEM bearings on that setup? Also, I'll be running a GT3255E instead of the GT3076R...I'm not b3ller enough yet.
