Default mini-me? rods?

Ok I think I am going to go ahead and do a mini-me swap. I know what you are all thinking, just save up and do a full swap. I am fully aware of this. However, I have decided to go with a mini-me, and spend alot more money trying to make it fast

I figure, I have tried to be unique on everyother part of my car, so why follow the crowd on the engine.

Here is my question. In the d15 bottomend, I am going to be putting ZC pistons. What kind of rod, would work well without having it modified, etc. Something thicker then the dx rods. I hear the LS rods work, but you have to shorten and I don't want to do that.

some input please...

well, ZC pistons are gonna lower your compression.

only way to get rods for a 1.5L is from Crower.
