best to call a workshop that have both laying around, as I can't find anything.

GTR rods were 640G IIRC

Both the same weight, but are different shape?????

Do a search on posts by Chris Wilson, he has some pics of them side by side.

I was looking for that post but couldn't find it - he does mention in one post that he has weighed them though, without mentioning the weight.......

I can weigh the RB25 rods later today, haven't got any RB26 ones anymore, but can use TFS's 604Grams.

I think my Tomei rods weighed 535Grams each.

thanks

I have my rods in the garage but they are still attached to the pistons until I decide what route I am taking.

RB26 rods are 630.40g,s With 1 nut only
RB25 rods are 576.50g,s With 1 nut only

1 rod had 2 nuts fitted and the other had one 1 , so i just fitted 1 to each rod to check the weight.

hope that helps
