This is a unanswerable question. I mean it all depends on your driving habits, which oil you use, how the were installed... So many things. Typically because of the construction of this bearing, it should last as long if not longer than OEM considering it exceeds OEM specifications "BUT" some people swear by OEM. It's really up to you. I personally use these bearings and know people who have. Zero problems.

Re: (turbociv)
They are not basically B20 pistons. I can get CTR, ITR, P30 piston profiles in 84+ bore sizes. The C/R with the JDM ITR's it low 12's and with the USDM ITR's high 11's. Every other profile yields a much higher compression ratio. I usually only suggest the ITR's. If your running on 94 octane or race gas, then the P30's or CTR may suit you (13's and 15's C/R) BTW, PM's replied. Thanks for the overwelming response.
thanks

Re: (RMS)
The are indeed solid. Very good idea because, obviously at 84mm a CTR pistons C/R is absolutly insane unless your on race gas 24/7 and run HD S200 or AEM EMS fully dyno tuned. The ITR's are actually very suiting daily driver replacements.
