Well theyre not a direct replacement
Whether or not they will fit i dont think so but could be wrong
Why didnt you just get the forged ones off jammapic. Thought you were on the list?

If you can get them for a similar price you will be on a winner
Re: Con rod help - studturbo - 31-01-2012
if i can get them ill be well happy for that price
Re: Con rod help - Jacko - 31-01-2012
Stu, If you can get them made for XUD's be sure to let me know?
Re: Con rod help - Jacko - 31-01-2012
Just a thought, forged gti6 pistons, would these be the same size as XUD ones? Or are they alot different?
Re: Con rod help - studturbo - 31-01-2012
oh yes gti6 pistons would be nice and i will do pal at that price there a steal
Re: Con rod help - Dan! - 31-01-2012
GTi6 pistons in an XUD :think: Sorry, but just no....
Re: Con rod help - darrenjlobb - 31-01-2012
No petrol rods will fit as the wrist pins in the dervs are almost double the size...and obviously no you cant run perv 16v pistons in an IDI derv
Re: Con rod help - Jacko - 31-01-2012
In my above post, didn't mean pistons.. Was tired. I meant the forged rods.

Re: Con rod help - studturbo - 31-01-2012
Guess what people thay can make them all i have too do is send him the dimensions or send him a rod witch would be better ?
Re: Con rod help - Dan! - 31-01-2012
I'd send him a rod. I dont know what measuring equipment you have, but theirs is bound to be more accurate. That way they have no excuse if the rod is slightly to long, wrist pin slightly to small etc.
Re: Con rod help - darrenjlobb - 31-01-2012
heh, plus the mesurements you are talking about need to be mesured in 0.*** tolerances, so deffo let them sort it out!
Re: Con rod help - studturbo - 31-01-2012
Going too send them a rod so if thay make a mistake its there fault
Re: Forged rods - Jacko - 31-01-2012
That's fantastic news!! Sort it fast
Re: Forged rods - studturbo - 31-01-2012
Oh i will be need too get a con rod first too send him so be going scrapyard
Forged rods - Matt - 31-01-2012
I'd be unsure of the company tbh, I would find somewhere closer to home. Poland is a long way to go if something goes wrong
Re: Forged rods - studturbo - 31-01-2012
There UK designed and manufactured in our UE factory conrods and am sure thay come with a warrenty
Re: Forged rods - Midnightclub - 31-01-2012
So has he guaranteed you the price of £325 for these new rods?
Re: Forged rods - studturbo - 31-01-2012
yes pal
Re: Forged rods - studturbo - 31-01-2012
Hes mailed me back and this is what the rods are made from
rods are forged from AISI 4340 (En24) steel.
Heat treated to HRC 35-38 and fully shot-peened.
small end is aluminium bronze
Re: Forged rods - Atterz - 31-01-2012
I can kind of understand wanting to take the risk on an XUD because if it all goes pete tong its not the end of the world (in regards to a new block etc). But are there any reviews on the internet of this company? If they are good quality ill shut up but if your throwing a lot of money in to an engine build wouldnt you want piece of mind with a proven product?
Re: Forged rods - studturbo - 31-01-2012
Well there on here http://www.stackltd.com/dists.html
Re: Forged rods - 4WayDiablo - 31-01-2012
studturbo Wrote:Well there on here http://www.stackltd.com/dists.htmli dont see them on that list
Also if they are then so what? stack sell GUAGES and other instruments and not CON RODS
Re: Forged rods - studturbo - 31-01-2012
thay called re5pect
Re: Forged rods - jammapic - 31-01-2012
I looked at those, and realised:
1) I'd never heard of the company
2) I'd have to pay import tax
3) They'd never made a diesel rod
4) They were in a totally different country, a long way from me
and when I added those all together an extra £95 didn't seem so bad... at least I know if I have problems they are only about 100m away from me!
