well the rods have been out a couple of month and I was wondering if anyone has anything good or bad to say about them and also how are cp pistons compared to arias ones? I can get both shipped to me for 775 which is pretty sweet deal but I wanna know if they are worth investing into or if I should look at something else. thanks.

I just built my engine with arias pistons and eagle rods, doing great so far, eagle rods are a great deal for the price, reputable company, especially with the honda guys, that sounds like a good deal for both.

Look there. Click on Nissan. And then under 'C', look at Rod/Piston Combo's. Pretty sweet deals.

Although I got AMS Sportsman rods and Arias pistons because they hooked me up with alot of technical help. So I purchased a little something from them to kinda 'shake their hand' for the info.

So you ended up selling the rods Brian? I'm surprised they lasted as long as they did.

Yeah, took a decent loss, but I had to unload them. For brand new parts you won't find a better deal online anywhere.

cp's are possibly the best quality piston money can buy. and i think you will find that almost everyone that runs them will agree. i run them in my personal car and most customer cars.
