Cusco Strut Bar

Cusco Strut Bar

Does anyone have a Cusco Strut Bar on their car? I'm looking for a strut bar and there seems to be a limited choice of manufacturers.

what year do u drive??? i'm guessing that it is between 93-02...

if it is... just look for any strut bar that is for AE10x or AE11x...

get the TRD one, they are the best imo...plus than you can be sure you got the right one for your car

Get this kind of TRD strutbar.


OVER RARE and the best one out there.

where would u find the trd strut bars? any trd strut

The regular 2-point strut bar you could still buy it new in some online stores:

But the one I just posted? Good luck, I've also been trying to find one. You're best luck would be in HK or Thailand.

its not rare... its the JDM TRD one and they still make it... plus its cost the same as what we hav but its better since its a 3point strutbar... i think u can get in canada toyota dealers but i'm not sure cuz i saw TRD catalog in canada w/ the 3point strut bar picture...

Yah its not that rare, just rare in the states.

dunno if this is really true... but click on that TRD canada link, then click vehicle, then click corolla, then click individual parts, click strut bar and u'll find the 3point one

check your local toyota dealership, if they dont have it they know where to get it. unless you try to find a short shifter, they dont know where to get them form =[ which is why we have nice people like DOT.

lol...if i only knew went this past summer to HK to visite my grandma after 20 years...

I had a Cusco one on my car.. however I found it flexed too much for my liking since it was a hollow-type bar.

You can buy them from Andy's Auto Sport, theres a few different types to choose from.

how old is that website.. they have nothing for any of the newer models...

doesnt look like you can buy directly from that website.

TRD Canada is a joke. That web-site is so old and out of date.

Most parts you see there are discontinued now.

i have one of those, a few other member here has one as well. I'd like to trade up to a Cusco AE111 3 point though, that bar is hawt.

I was looking into that bar, but i wasn't sure whether the shaft was hollow or not.

both the cusco and trd bar is hollow, actually they all are except maybe the tom's one.

What advantages would the 3pt. Cusco bar have over the TRD one to warrant an upgrade?

not much, strut bars barely do anything to begin with.

where can you buy the Tom's one

well to me strut bars help a lot. when you have an oversize rear sway bar, you feel the difference of having a strut bar

I do have a oversize rear sway bar, coilovers/dampeners, and poly bushings all around and I can honestly say I can't feel a large difference with my strut bar installed or uninstalled. Strut bar don't do anything mechanically, it is only a chassis brace.

The tom's strut bar is discontinued, you could still probably buy it second hand in japan. There were one on ebay a few months back, sold for ~120 i believe. I'd never pay that much for a strut bar.

I have yet to find that style of strut bar over here, one of these days i will go to the local dealer and pickup a catalogue from TRD and see what they have to offer.

If there are at least 10 people, I can setup a group buy for the Cusco 3pt Strut bar. Anyone willing to buy it?

Its the "Type OS FRONT TRIANGLE TYPE" but for an AE110/AE111, I can't guarantee it'll fit the USDM corolla.

How does it look like?

I can't find pictures of it on the net but if you look at the link that i have, it will look similar to it. I am going to order it as soon as I have money so I can tell you how the fitting goes.

How much would the 3pt. bar cost (shipped)?

Same question.

cgreen38, shipping shouldn't cost too much for it, maybe at most $30 but I am not quite sure.

DOT., you live in Chatsworth so you can pick it up or I can deliver it.
