i am thinkin to use eagle rods, any one knows about them. are they good?
any one tryed eagle rods - 6G Celicas Forums
I haven't personally used them, but I know a couple guys that are using them and have no problems. The machine shop around me says that they're not the best rods and install is a little bit of a problem, not a big problem, but a little one.
tnx for info junior. what kind of cars do your friends have. and how much bhp they have?
2 friends w/ integra's using them. One dynoed at 174 and the other never dynoed b4 he sold it. But it was autoXC a LOT and held up well. This was fully built B18C1 too, with almost all JUN parts

Oh and a Celica...nothin wrong with that!"
My friend's are running Type R's. One has 193 to the wheels, but he's got an oversized bore, increased stroke, fully balanced, stage 2 clutch, spoon fly wheel, port and polished head, increased compression. The other Type R's haven't been dynoed.

I would prefer Pauter Ibeam rods with JE pistons. That combo is def good for 300WHP and probably alot more.
i was taliking to reaceeng.com and they said eagle rods aren't worth the money and are not much stonger than stock in somecases, the best rods are crower pr-billet not econo, but they are expensive
