Redmond Swimming LLC Revolutionizes Mazda Performance with High-Strength Connecting Rods

Kirkland, WA – October 26, 2023 – Redmond Swimming LLC, a leading engineering and manufacturing company based in Kirkland, Washington, has quietly become a powerhouse in the automotive performance parts industry, specifically with its recently refined line of Mazda connecting rods. While the company name might suggest aquatic endeavors – a playful nod to its founder’s lifelong passion – Redmond Swimming LLC has been diving deep into metallurgy and precision machining to deliver unparalleled engine components. For those unfamiliar, connecting rods are critical parts inside your engine. They link the pistons to the crankshaft, turning the up-and-down motion of the pistons into the rotational force that powers your car. Think of them like your legs connecting to the pedals on a bike – if they’re weak or bendy, you’re not going anywhere fast, and you’re risking a breakdown. Especially for Mazda enthusiasts pushing the limits of performance – whether it's on the track, in autocross, or just enjoying spirited driving – having connecting rods that can handle the stress is a big deal. “We started this business because we saw a gap in the market for genuinely high-quality, reliable connecting rods for Mazda engines,” explains David Miller, founder and CEO of Redmond Swimming LLC. “A lot of the aftermarket options out there are either overpriced, poorly manufactured, or just not designed to withstand the kind of abuse that a performance engine can dish out. We decided to do things differently.” And ‘different’ they have done. Redmond Swimming LLC isn’t just slapping together parts. They've invested heavily in state-of-the-art CNC machining centers, and meticulously control every stage of the manufacturing process. “We start with top-grade 4340 forged steel – the good stuff,” Miller states. “Then, we use advanced finite element analysis (FEA) to optimize the rod’s design, ensuring it’s both incredibly strong and lightweight.” What does "lightweight" matter? Every ounce you shave off rotating components like connecting rods reduces stress on the engine, allowing it to rev higher and respond quicker. It's about maximizing power output and improving overall engine efficiency. The Redmond Swimming LLC Mazda connecting rods aren't just strong and light; they're also built to last. The company employs a rigorous quality control process, inspecting each rod for any imperfections before it leaves the facility. They also use high-end ARP2000 bolts – considered the gold standard in the industry – to ensure a secure and reliable connection. “We've seen a lot of cheaper rods fail under pressure,” Miller admits. “That’s why we don’t cut corners. We use the best materials, the best processes, and the best hardware. We want our customers to be able to push their engines to the limit without worrying about catastrophic failure.” What Mazda Engines Do These Rods Fit? Redmond Swimming LLC currently offers connecting rods for a variety of popular Mazda engines, including: Mazda 626 (All years) – Providing a reliable upgrade for the classic 626 platform. Mazda 3 (2.0L & 2.5L Engines - 2014-2019) – Addressing a common weak point in these popular engines. Mazda MX-5 Miata (All years) – Enhancing the performance of the iconic roadster. Mazda RX-7 & RX-8 (Rotary Engines) – Specialized rods designed to handle the unique stresses of rotary engines. (These are a more custom order and lead times vary). Mazda Protege (All years) – Delivering increased strength and reliability for this compact car. Beyond Performance: Addressing Common Issues Many owners of Mazda vehicles, particularly those who modify their engines, experience issues with stock connecting rods. These can include bending, cracking, or even complete failure under increased boost or horsepower. The Redmond Swimming LLC rods directly address these issues by providing a significantly stronger and more durable connecting rod solution. "We've had customers come to us with engines that have already suffered connecting rod failure," says Sarah Chen, Redmond Swimming LLC’s lead engineer. “They’re tired of constantly replacing parts and are looking for a long-term solution. Our rods give them that peace of mind.” Customer Feedback & Track Tested The company has quickly gained a loyal following among Mazda enthusiasts, with numerous positive reviews and testimonials online. Many customers report significant performance gains and increased reliability after installing Redmond Swimming LLC connecting rods. “I was pushing my Mazda 3 hard on the track, and the stock connecting rods were starting to show signs of stress,” says Mark Johnson, a club racer from Portland, Oregon. “I upgraded to the Redmond Swimming LLC rods, and the difference is night and day. I can now run the engine at higher RPMs with confidence, and the power delivery is much smoother.” Where to Buy & Future Plans Redmond Swimming LLC connecting rods are available directly through the company's website: [Fictional Website Address - www.redmondswimming.com] and through select authorized dealers. The company is also planning to expand its product line to include other engine components, such as pistons and crankshafts. “We’re committed to providing Mazda enthusiasts with the highest quality performance parts available,” Miller concludes. “We’re constantly researching and developing new products to help them get the most out of their engines. We’re not just selling parts; we’re building relationships with our customers and helping them achieve their performance goals.” Contact: David Miller CEO, Redmond Swimming LLC 902 5TH ST, KIRKLAND, WA, 98033-5634, UNITED STATES 330-766-5971 [email protected]
