The invention relates to a heat-resistant sliding resin composition, comprising a vapor carbon fiber having a specific surface area of 10 to 50 m/g, a mean aspect ratio of 20 to 500 and a mean fiber diameter of 50 to 200 nm and a synthetic resin, wherein a heat deflection temperature under high load (ASTM D648) is 160&#xb0; C. or higher and a thermal conductivity is 0.8 W/mK or higher. The resin composition has heat resistance, heat-radiation property and sliding property. Particularly, the resin composition, which neither wears away nor abrades a soft metal member which is a counter member under high temperature and heat generative conditions, can be employed for various sliding members such as bearings.
