It's a daily driver with the occasional track/drift use.

I'm sort of leaning towards ACL race or Kings bearings, but i'm having doubts wether to maintain the loser end of the standard recommended clearance (according to FSM 0.025mm) or use the X (+0.025mm/0.001") bearings.

Motor will see max 8.5k rpm on 16ve cams, supertech S+R, HX40 on TS exh mani

And has anyone been able to fit a 4" elbow+downpipe in a LHD s14?
We use ACL on every build at the shop when they're available. Use GTi-R bearings, and I'd recommend using a 19mm rod bearing however they require rod machining. Don't bother with HX bearings unless you need them, we also shoot for factory tolerances.
