Description

The CUSCO Lightweight Engine Mount Bracket is a precision-engineered, weight-saving performance component designed to replace the factory engine mount bracket in the late-model GR Yaris. CNC-machined from high-strength billet aluminum and finished with a durable gunmetal anodized coating, this bracket achieves a significant 0.77 kg (46%) weight reduction compared to the OEM part. By strategically reducing mass at a critical powertrain mounting point, it enhances engine response, contributes to overall weight reduction, and improves vehicle dynamics.

Product Highlights

⚖️ Substantial Unsprung Weight Reduction
Weighing only 0.91 kg, this bracket is a remarkable 0.77 kg lighter than the stock component—a 46% reduction in mass. This reduction directly lowers overall vehicle weight and decreases unsprung mass, contributing to sharper throttle response, improved suspension reaction, and enhanced acceleration.

🏗️ Precision Billet Aluminum Construction
Machined from a solid block of high-grade billet aluminum, ensuring exceptional dimensional accuracy, strength, and rigidity. The gunmetal anodized finish provides superior corrosion resistance and a premium, technical appearance that complements the engine bay.

🎯 Improved Powertrain & Chassis Response
Reducing weight at the engine mount decreases inertial mass the powertrain must overcome, allowing for more immediate engine movement and throttle response. This also helps the suspension react more quickly to road inputs, refining overall handling feel.

🔧 Direct Bolt-On Replacement
Engineered as an exact, direct replacement for the factory engine mount bracket. Installation is straightforward with an estimated time of 1.0 hour, requiring no modifications and using existing hardware.

🇯🇵 Late-Model GR Yaris Specific Compatibility
Designed exclusively for the late-model GR Yaris (GXPA16, April 2024 onwards), and compatible with both GR-DAT (8AT, 4WD) and 6MT (4WD) models.

Installation & Performance Notes

✅ Professional Installation Recommended
While a direct bolt-on, proper support of the engine during installation and correct torque sequencing are important. Professional installation ensures safety and optimal performance.

🔩 Part of a Holistic Weight Reduction Strategy
Ideal when paired with other CUSCO lightweight components such as the differential mount bracket, strut bars, and suspension arms to achieve a compounded reduction in unsprung and overall vehicle weight.

🏁 Benefits for Performance Driving
The weight savings contribute to a more agile and responsive chassis, with benefits felt during acceleration, cornering, and rapid direction changes—making it a valuable upgrade for track use and spirited driving.
