Cusco Strut Bar OS Rear for 1993-2000 Subaru Impreza GC8
The Cusco Strut Bar OS Rear connects rear strut towers on 1993-2000 Subaru Impreza GC8 models with OS outer suspension layout. It minimizes tower flex during cornering and acceleration for sharper steering response and stable handling on track or street. This reinforcement increases chassis rigidity for better grip and reduced body roll.
Key Features
- Steel Pipe Construction: 8mm diameter high tensile steel pipes ensure rigid connection between rear strut towers reducing chassis twist under load
- OS Design: Tailored for Impreza GC8 models with outer suspension rear setup for perfect bolt-on fit without modifications
- Chassis Reinforcement: Increases body rigidity to enhance cornering grip and reduce body roll for confident driving dynamics
- Durable Finish: Electrophoretic deposition coating resists corrosion and maintains appearance under harsh conditions
- Cusco Branding: Laser-etched logo on the bar adds authentic JDM style to the engine bay
Product Notes
- Confirm your Impreza has OS rear suspension before purchase as IS types use different bars
- Clean mounting surfaces thoroughly for secure installation
- Packaged in protective foam-lined box for damage-free delivery
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- Requires basic hand tools and 30-45 minutes completion time
- Bolts directly to factory strut tower mounting points using included hardware
