Default titaniom rods in h22 lude?

Would the rods from the nsx fit? If not has anyone ever put any in? I did find one website that will make custom ones for 1000 bucks. I just want to learn some new things.

not that i have specs on the nsx motor, but since it is a 6 cylinder and its only 3.0 or 3.2 liters i doubt the rods/stroke are anywhere near as long as ours...

try searching nsx engine specs....

no they won't work. the big end of the NSX rods are too small for the H22 crank.

The rod journals can always be ground down to a smaller size & offset ground to accomodate the potential length differences.
However, if you're going to but it titanium rods I wouldn't do anything that's going to make you lose performance for the sake of putting in some "cheaper" titanium rods from an NSX. There are good things about titanium rods (lighter) & bad things (friction).

Unless you're doing some super stupid N/A setup, there's no reason for titanium.

Do some forged rods and be done with it.
