AW11 CUSCO Rear Strut Brace (1984-89 MR2)

CUSCO Rear Strut Brace

For 1984–1989 Toyota MR2 AW11 (JDM) and 1985–1989 Toyota MR2 AW11 (U.S.-Market)

Overview

The CUSCO rear strut brace helps limit strut-tower flex on 1984–1989 JDM and 1985–1989 U.S.-Market Toyota MR2 AW11 cars.

The 4A-GE naturally aspirated and 4A-GZE supercharged configurations use different braces. Choose by the car's engine and market rather than treating the two designs as interchangeable upgrade levels.

Key Features

• Rear strut-tower reinforcement: Links the rear suspension towers across the engine bay.
• Application-specific shaft design: Round Type AS for the naturally aspirated car; oval Type OS for the supercharged car.
• Polished aluminum construction: Aluminum shafts with blue mounting endplates.

Vehicle Fitment

Choose the configuration matching your engine, market and model year.
