Product Description

The King CR6870XPNC XP Series Connecting Rod Bearings are engineered for high-performance Nissan GT-R R35 engines equipped with the VR38DETT 3.8L twin-turbo V6. Built with premium tri-metal construction and a performance hardened overlay, this set offers enhanced load capacity and fatigue resistance for engines running elevated power levels, sustained high RPM, and demanding driving conditions. The bearings feature a narrowed profile to clear the VR38DETT crankshaft fillets while providing reliable crank support.

Designed as a performance upgrade over standard bearings, the CR6870XPNC set delivers consistent oil wedge formation and improved hydrodynamic lubrication across a wide operating range. This standard journal size set is ideal for engines with forged internals, high boost, or track use where durability and strength are critical. Proper engine teardown, bearing clearance checks, and torque procedures are recommended for installation to ensure long-term performance and reliability.
