King XPG Engine Bearings for Subaru EJ Series
King has conducted extensive research into the unique oiling requirements of the Subaru EJ series engines. The result is a completely redesigned main bearing set that eliminates oil leakage and increases oil flow to the rod bearings. To improve oil flow, King XPG bearings feature oil slots instead of standard oil holes, which improves oil distribution within the groove and creates a more consistent oil flow. The fully grooved #3 main bearing allows for 360° oiling to the rod bearings.
King XPG bearings feature a unique lug design that eliminates the traditional lug recess, preventing oil leakage and maintaining full oil pressure. Additionally, the narrower bearing length eliminates fillet ride on high-radius cranks. With a reinforced tri-metal copper-lead structure featuring a nickel barrier and SecureBond adhesion, King XPG bearings offer 20% higher load-carrying capacity and improved resistance to surface fatigue.
King Subaru XPG main and rod bearings are produced in the company’s AS9100 aerospace-certified production facility and feature the company’s new custom-designed packaging with specially molded trays that hold each shell securely and prevent impact damage. Each bearing has ultra-precise wall tolerances. All XPG shells are manufactured with 0.0001” Bull’s Eye® wall accuracy and feature King’s 0.0005” metallurgically enhanced and hardened XP performance overlay.

Before Ordering
〇 About Import Consumption Tax
At Shaftoya Shopping Site, we pay the import consumption tax incurred at the time of import on your behalf, so there will be no additional charges beyond the total amount paid at checkout.
〇Confirmation of Compatibility
As our entire product database is based on North American vehicles (USDM), please confirm compatibility with Japanese vehicles (JDM) before placing your order. (If you are unsure whether the listed product is compatible with your vehicle, please feel free to contact us. Our support team will be happy to look into it for you.)
If you place an order without confirming compatibility, we cannot accept returns due to incompatibility.
Please note that even if products are sorted by selecting the year, manufacturer, and model on our top page tabs, it does not necessarily mean they will fit Japanese market vehicles without modification.
All products have been translated into Japanese using translation software. As there may be confusing expressions, please contact us before ordering if you have any questions.
○ Regarding Delivery
Shipping costs are paid at the time of payment. Shipping estimates are calculated automatically once you enter your shipping address on the checkout page. For large items such as body parts, there may occasionally be a significant discrepancy between the automatically calculated shipping cost and the actual cost. In such cases, we will contact you individually via email.
In principle, all products are shipped internationally from our U.S. warehouse. Unlike domestic shipping in Japan, international delivery takes approximately 7 to 14 days, so please allow sufficient time when ordering. If you are in a hurry, please contact us in advance to confirm delivery dates. Note that all products are transported by air freight; they are not shipped by sea freight.
○ Regarding Japanese Vehicle Inspection (Shaken) Compatibility
The products we handle are basically designed and manufactured outside of Japan. Please note that they are not compliant with the "Japanese Vehicle Inspection (Shaken) System," and we cannot provide documents such as strength calculation reports for the purpose of the Japanese inspection system. Therefore, all parts are sold for use on "circuits, private property, or off-road," and installation and use are at your own risk.
○ Regarding Warranty
Please check the contents of your order immediately upon arrival. Since all products are shipped internationally from outside Japan, there may be delivery damage to packaging boxes or the products themselves. Please understand that we will only provide returns, refunds, or replacements for products with delivery damage, defective items, or items different from what you ordered if you contact us within 7 days of receipt. Furthermore, for products sold through us, all warranty-related support will be handled "exclusively through us." Please note that we do not handle support through other companies or distributors based in Japan.
