Nitto I-Beam Connecting Rods - Toyota G16E-GTS - GR Yaris (GXPA16) / GR Corolla (GZEA14)
Nitto I-beam connecting rods for the Toyota G16E-GTS in the GR Yaris and GR Corolla. They are a strong upgrade over the factory rods for big-turbo street, circuit and rally builds.
The rods are 143.74 mm long to suit the factory stroke and use 3/8" ARP 2000 bolts.
Nitto I-beam rods are machined from one-piece forged 4340 billet round stock and are intended for builds that go beyond intermediate power levels. The single-piece billet keeps the grain flow uniform for strength, and each rod comes with ARP 2000 bolts and silicone bronze pin bushes. Step up to the V2 rod for the most extreme builds.
Note: Installation by a professional is recommended. Engine internals must be measured and set up by a qualified engine builder.
