Overview

The YCP Vitara Piston and SpeedFactory Racing Connecting Rod Combo is designed for Honda/Acura D16 and ZC engines. This kit features forged SAE 4340 chromoly H-beam connecting rods and Vitara pistons. The custom rod length brings the pistons to proper deck height, increasing compression and efficiency.
Show original supplier description
The YCP Vitara Piston and SpeedFactory Racing No-Notch H-Beam Long Rod Combo is engineered for Honda/Acura D16 (ALL) and ZC engines, offering a significant upgrade for performance builds. This kit combines Vitara pistons with SpeedFactory Racing's custom-length, no-notch H-beam connecting rods. The longer rods optimize the deck height with Vitara pistons, achieving a higher compression ratio (8.8:1 with this combo, compared to 7.8:1 with standard rods). This results in improved engine efficiency and faster turbo spool times. The rods are constructed from forged SAE 4340 chromoly steel, are 100% CNC machined, heat-treated, and shot-peened for stress relief and durability. They feature precision alignment dowels, bronze alloy pin bushings for floating wrist pins, and are rated for up to 500 horsepower. Each set is balanced to +/- 1 gram. A key advantage of this SpeedFactory Racing design is that the rods are profiled to clear most factory girdles, eliminating the need for block and girdle notching, which simplifies installation. The combo includes 4 pistons with rings and wrist pins, and 4 connecting rods. It is specifically designed for the 1988-2005 Honda Civic and 1986-1989 Acura Integra models with D16 or ZC engines.
