Engine Build....stuck. Need parts, cant find.

So....my mechanic/tuner is finished the stages of my low comp build on my C30. And viola...cant find any rod bearings. So, I am in pretty dire need to find 12 rod bearings. Part number is 13213-PR7-A02. These are the brown ones. Would love to actually get the black, which is 13212-PR7-A02. But, brown will work.

Any ideas? As most parts dealers are all sold out here in the states. I have found like two sitting in one place, but really need 12. I am willing to source from overseas if someone has a supplier to order from.

Thanks, and please let me know.

I have a small fortune in new green and red bearings I didn't use on my build. Sorry these won't work for you.

Have you checked with Autowave, Driving Ambition, or SOS to see if they have any in stock?

Integrals was selling brown bearings awhile back.

Oh, make sure your builder measures and calculates each bearing/journal clearance and doesn't just assume they are a direct drop-in. See my thread below. I ended up going with OEM main bearings but custom rod bearings because I think Taiho had a bad batch of rod bearings:

Awesome info. Thank you very much!

Nathan what condition is your block in? Has it spun a main bearing at any point or had any other damage ?

My engine is sitting at Driving Ambition waiting on the same bearings.

You can still buy from Japan.

I know Shad ordered some from somewhere. Not sure where, but we are awaiting arrival.

Has anyone tried www.amayama.com

They appear to have them (@ $11.70 each) but to confirm you would need to post an inquiry.

FYI,
We have most of all the bearings in stock on the shelf.
Have been selling quite a few of the discontinued ones towards the US lately
