Guys - have a look at this - it covers all the info you need to know.

They are not Eagle rods, they are not Scat rods - see the pics in the link. Competition Tuning here is Bris have an FJ20 making near 600rwhp with SPOOL rods now - thats near 200bhp per rod.

i have an adjustable cam gear to suit rb25 which is " spool " brand, it seems to have the same quality in looks as the other top brands but i have never fitted it and am getting rid of it because i wasnt sure of the quality...

Dont be afraid of them, I use them and they are fine. just replace the washers under the locking screws for slightly larger ones for a more definite lock and you will have no probs.

The Spool stuff is nice and hard to beat for value, i was also under the impression they were scat items originally but have since been informed by my buyer that they may be coming from the same company we source from as he has one other aus account. This same factory supplys some name brand gear into japan and the USA inc V8 SR and GTR stroker cranks. Rest assured the gear is spot on. I have a few sr and RB cranks on the way for testing.

im sure spool will inform me if im way off.

I would not risk using them they seem to cheap,and very poor quality :D

Your statement appears to be the same. Perhaps you should back up what you say with some solid facts before making yourself look stupid....which you have already done. Alot of people are useing them with no problems.

Weve been using spool rods in our race car over the last few years. If i can get a dyno printout from Mercury...I can show that we made over 620hp+ at the rears whilst wheelspinning...ofcourse the motor had spool rods in it! Thats about 700-800bhp @ the crank if an accurate hp reading could have been obtained.

Whose else has big hp figures with them?

Spoolup, These are the rods the engine builder used in my car.. know anything about them? they seem fine and they wont be making more then 650 - 700 bhp ever..

They work well for me, and they are 850.00 inc gst

Forged Conrods are a must for a bullet proof rebuild on your turbocharged engine. This allows the stress to be taken off the bottom end under high rpm and high boost. Of course forged pistons are not essential, but are highly recomended.

Precision Motorsport rods are manufactured from certified 4340 steel, vacuum degassed to remove impurities, and multistage heat treated. Each forging is X-rayed, and shot peened to relieve stress, and all surfaces are 100% machined.

H-Beam Connecting Rods Feature:

NEW 4340 Certified Forged Steel Rod

ARP 5/16 2000 capscrew bolts standard

Silcone Bronze bushings for floating pins

Precision alignment sleeves positively locate the rod cap, eliminating cap walk

Packaged in weight matched sets end to end +/- 1 gram

Rated for upto 750 horsepower (Same as the limit of the factory RB30 Crankshaft)

    • Is it a dog or synchro box? I guess either way, if it is new and crunching in one gear only, it has to come out and go back to the shop to check/measure as there is either an assembly or manufacturing issue
    • These are small points I should actually add to my original post. GKtech makes an extended slave line for this conversion. It's what I use, and it works well. You'll also need a CD009 slave cylinder.  S/R Chassis Z33/Z34 Conversion braided clutch line As for transmission sensors, you'll need to both extend the wiring and replace the connectors. I can't recall which is which, but one is your neutral switch and the other the reverse switch. As they are just switches, just test for continuity with your transmission in neutral or reverse to figure out which is which. Connectors:  VQ35 neutral Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties VQ35 Reverse Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties 
    • I’ll try and see it could be the release bearing. As for the 4th gear grind maybe clutch doesn’t disengage properly cause it is slightly like very slightly hard to go into first could be due to the slab cylinder pin being short uni clutch is a twin plate.   Ive attached some assembly photos hopefully you can open the link and see maybe detect what’s wrong https://share.icloud.com/photos/0dc2YvW__Hl6jl-l2_0jejjpg https://share.icloud.com/photos/09e0jkWOK-vP48c1cfY6u3ViA https://share.icloud.com/photos/0b4rDmh5R7pK7fb1VtND73a3g https://share.icloud.com/photos/05eeUi_6dC4DVi80jOUYDgb0g https://share.icloud.com/photos/06335TgY1XxyIJal_wkdQLhzw
