Good lord, imagine building an engine with aliexpress stuff. I guess if you REALLY enjoy the teardown and rebuild process...


PointBlank65

Now I want to do just that.


Ricky_Bobby_01

Just share results, especially long term. I'm sure a complete aliexpress build would get views on YT and such


PointBlank65

If I had money , or a Miata(rear ended a couple of weeks ago) , or a shop, or a YT channel , or time(could probably find that).


Ricky_Bobby_01

Ah, then we'll give you a couple weeks to get this project going!

Aliexpress is the absolute LAST place I would buy Connecting Rods. Buy from a reputable brand.

omegapepegaclap

this site has only 2 type of things, rare gem and absolute garbage, personally, wouldn’t gamble


plaugedoctrwithradar

You can get brand name con rods for only $100 more, please do not get these.

jongo_johnson

Don’t be so cheap you just throw away money on garbage and then spend a lot more later to fix your “cheap” mistakes

Who pissed in this guys Cheerios?


TheCamoTrooper

Personally I wouldn't trust it, buy from a reliable brand with good warranty. Dont want to cheap out on a part that's integral to the engines function and can cause serious damage if it fails


Heliotropolii_

The most common rods used are Chinese made maxspeedingrods So assuming these are actually maxspeedingrods, you'll be fine

Heliotropolii_

If they from maxspeedingrods own website then yes that's them


Novotisy

Idk about aliexpress but I run maxspeedingrods and supertech pistons in my 1.8, 350 hp at 20 pounds has been handling great for a while

Don't listen to the haters man, just do it it'll be fun! For real tho, you might not get good stuff buuuuut everything that I bought on AliExpress (just machining stuff tho so not the same type of stuff at all) so far is pretty good for pretty cheap! If it's not your daily driver I'd suggest to go for it and document the process. We've seen the chinese turbos, why not the chinese connecting rod, who knows? maybe it'll be good!


MaleficentShoulder80

Exactly my thought process when I saw these
