GI: 1NZ-FE Forged Rods

[Nexus1155]

I know that there was another thread that gauged interest but i died because of the price, well that is not the case here.

I am having rods custom made, I already have an estimated price on my end and i will try to offer them as cheap as possible but they will not be $750 i can say as much. I would expect that price for 6 cylinders, not from 4 cylinders.

I am gauging interest here first before the scion forums because this is my first and foremost home. I will post more updates as I talk to the company more, but here are the specs.

I would also like to get a group buy going on once i receive more info from them, but i will let everyone know when the time comes. I am hoping for 5 people will knock $25 off the price and 10 people will knock around $50 off.

This is a pic from another company that orders their rods from the same place i am ordering from



Whoever is interested please post up and if anyone is interested in more information toss me a message, but i will post it later once i hear more from them.


Hopefully i can bring some new development to the peppy 1NZ-FE engine

i broke one on a bone stock engine with about 40K on it... the high rev's kills them.

well, essentially, if you want (a lot) more boost, you gotta eliminate the "weakest links" in your engine, in this case, the rods. It's also good to uprate the rest of the bottom end, since that's where there's the most stress from the higher compression.
