Genuine Toyota bearings

[ashep91]

Does anyone know where I can buy a full set of genuine Toyota engine bearings for my 5e build

[daniel_g]

Go for ACL. They might even be cheaper

Have you had your crank measured?

[Starlet__SR]

Wouldn't Toyota be a start? ........

[wickedep]

genuine toyota is much stronger and durable than ACL duraglide in my experience. ACL race is a different story, but nobody stocks for 4/5e. our own car which is now making in excess of 450whp has been using genuine toyota bearings from day one. the one time i decided to use ACL was the only time bearings gave out. we have more than few other local lads also making in the 350-400whp range on toyota oem.

beware of duplicate Toyota bearings. at least over here you do find them. so maybe buying direct from Toyota is best bet.

just sharing my experience with you guys. do with the info what you will

Whos building your engine?

[ashep91]

Local engine shop doing all the work ect been around for years

[gorganl2000]

your best bet is toyota dealer itself...but sometimes you have a long wait if they are out of stock

try this place...but you will need part numbers for the bearings you require (the website is cheaper)

Cheers Sacha, I always thought ACLs were supposed to be replaced every 25k and wondered why people didn't use genuines.

Was not aware of this and was advised to run ACL. Ohwell haha.

[gorganl2000]

i've always used toyota genuine bearings as well...never had any issues over the years

its to the point where i refuse to build an engine without them

i'm sure the other reputable brands have credibility and success stories,...but for me its genuine toyota bearings or nothing

[ashep91]

Does anyone know who manufacturers the bearings for Toyota usually there's a sister company that manufacturer it then Toyota stamp there name on it

[Fozzie]

I seem to remember someone mentioning that Taiho made Toyota bearings...

[Ollieh17]

Yeh would have thought they'd be taiho

[ashep91]

Anyone know for sure?

[patman]

See even though I got toyota bearings in mine I was always told ACL's only needed changing every 25k if they were used for racing or track, so who knows now.

[ashep91]

Most people I've talked to who have been modifying starlets for years have said definitely use Toyota bearings over acl or similar brands

[wickedep]

yes correct... TAIHO

They need checking / replacing every 25k.

They're a softer material, don't forget Toyota would have designed the engine to last 150k miles.

[patman]

That's a very valid point Adam 👍🏻

[elikhan]

Anybody know the part number for 0.25 Taiho bearings? Asked the dealer but they just gave me MK1/MK2/MK3 options and couldn't tell me measurements/if they could supply undersize without a part no.

OEM all the time! There are 1000+ HP Toyota E series race engines running Toyota bearings! These motors are stripped for inspection after every other race and put back together with the same bearings!
