The future in rods is coming...PIC here. Ultralite rods!! For Type-R!
This is the picture of the new rods, that nobody has on earth yet.
I will be the source for these new beauties.
They are called:
I Beam Ultralites. made from 4340 Chromoly Forgings.
Strong, light and inexpensive.
I am going to start a revolution in the industry shortly.
Anyone should be able to get these soon for around $350.
Just wait and see the pistons I have coming. Light, strong and inexpensive.

Hey Jeff your my new best friend! lol
Anyway, let know if you want to try those out on some JRSC stuff. I'm gonna start doing my rebuild soon and I was planning on going with some Weisco's and Eagle stuff, but I might be slated into this stuff. Please E-mail me with some more info on this.

2-3 weeks on most Rods.
4-6 weeks on most pistons. Pics coming.
Maybe sooner on rods.
I post up details of technical info soon. Its going to open alot of eyes!

I have those same exact rods except they are for the H22A motor. Plus i got them a little cheaper. But hey everyone needs to make a buck right. Glad your not charging outrageous prices on those. And yes its the same grade material.

Re: The future in rods is coming...PIC here. Ultralite rods!! For Type-R! (GZR4DR)
GZR4DR: You have these rods for H22A?
They don't even make rods for H22A right now. And this is a prototype rod pic. They are not even out yet.
Do you mean you have Eagle Rods for your Prelude?
These are not Eagle, they are completely different.

They look like Eagle rods on slim fast.
i always wonder why eagle is practically the only one making h-beam rods for imports. every other brand is i-beam, and pauters x-beam. i read h-beams are better for high rpm applications, but i-beams can hold more stress at lower rpm loads or something? i dunno, if you'd like to fill me in on some technical detail jeff, please do

hmm what would be the cons of the titanium ( http://www.oliver-rods.com/shop/media/TiXXXX.jpg ) rods besides the cost perhaps?

I know looks can be deceiving, but it appears to be a firmly built rod judging from my previous experience with Crower and Eagle.

Titanium is brittle. Strong, but brittle.

They look like Eagle rods on slim fast.
....except the fact that these look nothing like eagle rods. eagle rod is an h-beam, its structure is completely different from this. good try though.
i always wonder why eagle is practically the only one making h-beam rods for imports. every other brand is i-beam, and pauters x-beam. i read h-beams are better for high rpm applications, but i-beams can hold more stress at lower rpm loads or something? i dunno, if you'd like to fill me in on some technical detail jeff, please do

I will be selling these rods, and you can get ANY LENGTH you want.
Custom rods are not a problem. ANY SIZE.
I already have a Type-R block specially done up to take new:
150 MM Rods.
Whoop dee do huH!
About 20 days or less until the market gets bombed with these from me.

I need to clear up some misconceptions.
1.75 rod/stroke ratio being ideal is nothing but propoganda.
That is absolutely not ideal. Depends on the application. Smokey, arguably the best engine builder of all time, says that the higher, the better....meaning 2.0+.
Look at Honda. Look at the Civic Type-R motor.
It has a higher rod/stroke ratio that 1.75 and look...
before the S2000 came out, it was the highest HP per liter of anything on earth NA.
I have a Type-R block here.
And 162 MM Ultralite rods are going into it.
That means 1.85+ Rod stroke ratio...
And that means that at High RPM that motor is going to MAKE THE POWER. Because it can BREATH.
Revving high requires breathing. And slower piston speeds is the way to go.
