ITR or GSR rod bearings, are one in the same. Unless you are talking about 92-93 GSR crank(81.4mm), then it won't work with R rods, the big end is too narrow.

The numbers and letters wont match up on a honda bearing chart.
So you will have to start at a color and measure the clearances until you get it right.

Stick, I was going to use the probe industries ultra-lite rods, but I'm using JDM ITR pistons and it was recommend to use honda rods with honda pistons.

SGT,
In other words all the tolerances have to measure to find the correct bearings. So, how do I begin finding the correct rods bearing. What size should I start with first ?

If you want to use aftermarket rods with stock pistons, then you have to modify
the pistons to accept retaining clips.

First by getting me the Numbers on the rods and the letters on the crank.
Then I can give you a starting point.

sgT- Should you always replace the bearings, even if you just take the old rods off and put new pistons on, and just put the old rods back on? Also what do bearings usually cost? And one more quick question, do you need to remover the crank to hone the cylinder walls? thanks dude
