I highly doubt that companies like Porsche would give out the composition of the alloy's used in their conrods, though there may be a disgruntled employee. LOL


Interestingly, it's out there.
Year Component Material Manufacturer Model
1992 Connecting rods Ti-3Al-2V-rare earth Honda Acura NSX
1994 Connecting rods Ti-6Al-4V Ferrari All 12-cyl
1996 Wheel rim screws Ti-6Al-4V Porsche Sport wheel option
1998 Brake pad guide pins Ti grade 2 Daimler S-Class
1998 Brake sealing washers Ti grade 1s Volkswagen All
1998 Gearshift knob Ti grade 1 Honda S2000 Roadster
1999 Connecting rods Ti-6Al-4V Porsche GT3
1999 Valves Ti-6Al-4V & PM-Ti Toyota Altezza 4-cyl.
1999 Turbo charger wheel Ti-6Al-4V Daimler Truck diesel
2000 Suspension springs TIMETAL LCB Volkswagen Lupo FSI
2000 Wheel rim screws Ti-6Al-4V BMW M-Techn. option
2000 Valve spring retainers beta-titanium alloys Mitsubishi All 1.8 l – 4-cyl.
2000 Turbo charger wheel gamma-TiAl Mitsubishi Lancer
2001 Exhaust system Ti grade 2 General Motors Corvette Z06
2001 Wheel rim screws Ti-6Al-4V Volkswagen Sport package GTI
2002 Valves Ti-6Al-4V & PM-Ti Nissan Infiniti Q45
2003 Suspension springs TIMETAL LCB Ferrari 360 Stradale

You'll notice the S2000's gearshift knob is made out of titanium - that has to be factory sanctioned rice. Laughing

Thankyou for the references Stewart.
