ACL High Performance Main Bearing Set 00+ Toyota 2ZZGE 1796cc (.25) for Lotus Elise/Exige/Celica - 5M1857HX-.025

If you’re looking to push your engine to the limit, you’ll want to check out ACL Race Series Engine Bearings. These aren’t just any bearings; they’re built for those moments when you’re revving high and demanding more from your ride. With a solid mix of smart design and tough materials, these bearings are ready to take on the challenge.

What sets these apart? For starters, the overlay plate is thinner but packs a punch with its strength, which helps reduce fatigue when you’re pushing those RPMs. The hardened steel backs on the rod bearings are a game changer—they provide better support and help keep everything locked in place, so you don’t have to worry about any slipping.

  • The increased crush on these bearings means they stay put, offering improved retention, even when the engine's roaring.
  • Say goodbye to flash plating on the back. This design tweak enhances heat transfer and maximizes the grip between the bearings and the housing, keeping everything running smoothly.
  • With increased eccentricity, these bearings compensate for bore distortion at high RPMs, helping to create those all-important hydrodynamic oil films.
  • The 3/4 grooved main bearings optimize the load carrying surface area and ensure oil flows just right to the conrod bearings.
  • Consistent wall tolerances mean you can maintain the clearances you need for peak performance.
  • And if you’re working with performance crankshafts, the enlarged ID chamfers on the edges are designed to fit those larger fillet radii perfectly.

These ACL Race Series bearings are specifically designed for a few popular models. They fit:

  • Lotus Elise (1996-2018)
  • Lotus Exige (2004-2018)
  • Toyota Celica (1982-2005) – specifically the 5M1857HX-.025 and 2ZZGE 1796cc (.25) with extra oil clearance.

With a size of STD, these bearings are built to handle the demands of high performance without breaking a sweat. If you’re serious about your engine's performance, giving these a shot could be one of the best decisions you make.
