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)

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
