Hi guys, I wanna upgrade the underneath of my corolla, always wanna make it full cusco under the car not 100% full but most. Does anyone know where can I get cheaper cusco products? Like any wed side or anyone carry them? Thanks!

Hit up Eric at RMR. Cusco ain't cheap, but it's hard to find it cheaper that the deals Eric can put together.

Found this wedsied its a bit cheaper than Eric's, not include theshipping yet. http://www.intakeone.com/toyota_intake/AE86_index.html

I had all cusco for my old levin except the cage.

My new 86 build will be full cusco as well with modified cusco cage for lhd.

You will be spending well over $2500 on Cusco parts for your 86 not including their hood.

For now I just like to upgrade the rear 4 links, lateral bar, sway bars, basically most of the bars replacement but roll cage will be the last point. Anyone has experience on T3s compare to cusco which is better? T3s are cheaper tho..

From my experience, I would rather buy Battle Version or T3 than Cusco. All the suspension stuff I've bought from Cusco has gone bad. The threads are real soft and if you adjust your parts a lot, like the caster rods, the threads junk up or get corroded. It's super lightweight and looks perty, but it's not for me anymore.

Alex @ Battle Version is making stuff again and Gabe @ T3 has always done me good.

I think I need to consider getting T3 instead. Do you have any wedsite of the battle version? Never have experience of Battle version.

Powered by max also has some really nice looking rear arms, the heim joints even have dust boots.

Alex Pffiefer or however the hell you spell it @ BattleVersion.

Alex is an OG Corolla drifter/Formula D driver/drunk hooligan. Cool to chat with. I will say though the BV traction brackets are WAYYYYYY easier to install than the T3 beefy ones.

battle version products > T3

I agree with HAS, Cusco tends to get corroded very fast and easy.

The T3 back back in the days were awesome because they had the eurthane bushing(spelling?) end rather than the new heim joints on both ends. Battle Version uses the bushing ends still. Cusco, you have the options of heim joints or bushings.

I heard BV will do poly bushings on both ends on a custom order basis for an added cost.

Edit: I looked into it; he's not willing to do this.

I've had Cusco parts on my Subarus in Utah, where we have salt and other gross crap during hte winter. My control arms held up great, no issues with the threads stripping or getting terribly corroded. I have a rear sway bar and rear stabilizer bar installed on another one of my vehicles, and although they have some surface rust, they've been holding solid.
