Manley Subaru WRX/STI EJ20/EJ25 5.216in Center to Center H-Tuff Beam Connecting Rod Set

Manley Performance has a solid reputation for making strong engine components, and their H-Beam connecting rods are a popular choice for builds where durability and precision are key. This set is specifically made for Subaru WRX and STI models with EJ20 or EJ25 engines, measuring 5.216 inches from center to center. They’re built to the same high standards as Manley's more specialized rod lines, meaning you get a well-built part that’s ready for serious work.

What sets these rods apart is the attention to detail in their construction. Manley finishes them to exacting tolerances, ensuring that each rod is precisely sized and straight. This level of accuracy is crucial for engine balance and longevity, especially when you're pushing your engine hard. They also offer flexibility with your choice of ARP 8740 or ARP 2000 bolts, allowing you to match the rod’s strength to your specific build requirements. Whether you're rebuilding your top end or looking for a more robust connecting rod for a performance application, these are designed to give you a competitive edge.

When installing these connecting rods, it's important to follow the manufacturer's recommended procedures. This includes using the correct torque specifications for the ARP bolts and ensuring proper bearing clearances. Because these are a critical engine component, we always recommend referring to the Manley installation instructions or consulting with a professional mechanic to ensure everything is done right. This set includes the connecting rods; you'll need to source the appropriate bolts if you don't select them as part of the package.
