I may have to be replacing my main bearings at the very least on my mr2,:(

what do i need to know to get the right ones?

im 70% sure i have a phoenix power 2.2 stroker kit, if not then hks

do i need specific custom made ones, or does anyone know where to get specific/specialist main bearings from? (or need to ask phoenix power to supply) i take it they wont be off the shelf

your advise is appretiated:)

Dam, id use toyota shells, if its spun a bearing id change the rod aswell, who are you planning on getting to do the rebuild?

it was more of a case of loosing all the engine oil on the m25 friday
