Get a more Direct Engine Response and less Drivetrain Loss with The New Cusco Engine Pitch Stopper
When you are heavy with your right foot, there is all sorts of stress passing through your AWD drive-train. In order to prevent axle torque from twisting back to front, Subaru implemented a pitch stop. Even though this was an ingenious idea to help with the underlying issue, the execution was not the greatest. The factory parts are comprised of plastic and soft rubber mounts. While this may be aid in comfort for daily driven vehicles, it hurts the performance for modified cars. The new pitch stopper from Cusco allows incorporates a metal mount and high durometer bushings. This prevents extra slop and makes a more direct connection with the drive-train and chassis. If you have shuddering under heavy acceleration this is the perfect upgrade for you!
- Quick installation – 30 minutes or so
- Reduced engine movement
- Improved build quality and materials
- No more drive-train shudder

With ever-increasing power and torque output and gross weight of Subaru WRX/STI and related automobiles, the propensity for the engine to rock fore and aft is more apparent.
The Subaru Symmetric AWD system outputs the front half shafts directly from the engine mounted transmission while the rear properller shafts from traditional location.
This results in torque-induced rocking and pitching as engine power is applied and subsequently, lifted.
The OEM part is designed to reduce this effect but has compromises as a mundane car. For racing use, and much greater response, as well as increased accuracy in driveline alignment, we’ve designed a replacement made from billet alloy, with heavier duty rubber bushings. Recommended to be used with Cusco engine mounts and transmission bushings.
Resulting effect is that the drivers can more accurately enjoy sharper steering control as well, and predictability from throttle-induced handling inputs.
This part is compatible with EJ/FA AWD Subaru vehicles listed below.
Imprezza (1993~2018) GC8/GDA/GDB/GVB/GVF/GRB/GRF/VAB.
