RENEE ATKINSON LLC Boosts Nissan Engine Performance with High-Precision Connecting Rods
Beaverton, OR – November 8, 2023 – RENEE ATKINSON LLC, a leading supplier of precision engine components, is making waves in the automotive aftermarket with its newly enhanced line of Nissan connecting rods. Based in Beaverton, Oregon, the company is quickly becoming a trusted name for mechanics, rebuilders, and performance enthusiasts seeking top-quality parts. “We’re really focused on delivering parts that just work,” says Renee Atkinson, founder and CEO of RENEE ATKINSON LLC. “It sounds simple, but that's what our customers tell us they want – reliability and performance they can count on. Especially when it comes to something as crucial as connecting rods.” What's the Big Deal with Connecting Rods? For those not completely gear-headed, connecting rods are a vital part of your engine. They connect the pistons to the crankshaft, transferring power and allowing the engine to do its job. They take a serious beating, dealing with intense heat, pressure, and constant movement. If a connecting rod fails? Well, that usually means a very broken engine and a hefty repair bill. “Think of it like your arm,” explains Atkinson. “Your muscles (pistons) move, and your forearm (connecting rod) translates that movement into the action you want. It needs to be strong, lightweight, and perfectly balanced. A weak or damaged connecting rod can throw everything off.” RENEE ATKINSON LLC’s Approach RENEE ATKINSON LLC doesn’t just sell connecting rods; they engineer them for durability and performance. The company specializes in supplying connecting rods specifically for a wide range of Nissan engines, including popular models like the SR20DET, RB26DETT, and various VQ series engines. “We've seen a lot of folks frustrated with aftermarket connecting rods that just don't fit right or fail prematurely,” says Atkinson. “So, we made it our mission to provide rods that meet or exceed OEM standards, using high-quality materials and precise manufacturing processes.” What Makes These Nissan Connecting Rods Different? Several key features set RENEE ATKINSON LLC’s connecting rods apart: Forged from 4340 Steel: This isn’t your run-of-the-mill steel. 4340 chromoly steel is known for its incredible strength and toughness. It can handle extreme stress and heat without failing, making it ideal for high-performance engines. Precision Machining: Each rod is meticulously machined using CNC technology, ensuring dimensional accuracy and a perfect fit. This minimizes vibration and wear, extending the life of the engine. Shot Peening: This process strengthens the steel by compressing the surface, increasing its resistance to fatigue and cracking. It’s like giving the rods a protective shield. Heat Treated: A carefully controlled heat treatment process optimizes the steel’s hardness and ductility, making it both strong and resistant to breakage. Lightweight Design: Reducing weight is crucial for performance. These connecting rods are designed to be lightweight without sacrificing strength, allowing the engine to rev higher and produce more power. Balanced: Each set of connecting rods is carefully balanced to ensure smooth operation and minimize vibration. This helps to extend the life of the engine and improve overall performance. Proper Fitment: RENEE ATKINSON LLC understands that fitment is crucial. They offer connecting rods specifically designed for various Nissan engine applications, ensuring a perfect fit every time. Who are these Connecting Rods For? These connecting rods aren’t just for racers and performance enthusiasts. They're also a great option for: Engine Rebuilders: If you're rebuilding a Nissan engine, replacing the connecting rods with RENEE ATKINSON LLC’s parts is a smart investment. They'll help ensure the engine is reliable and performs at its best. Mechanics: Looking for quality parts you can trust? These connecting rods are built to last and will give your customers peace of mind. Nissan Owners: Whether you're building a project car or simply want to maintain your Nissan engine, these connecting rods are a great way to improve performance and reliability. Turbo/Supercharger Upgrades: If you're adding a turbocharger or supercharger to your Nissan engine, upgrading the connecting rods is essential. These rods can handle the increased stress and power.
