Cusco parts... New for 2013.

Not sure if anyone already posted. I did quick look, but didn't see. Pretty disappointing ... So far. But it's still early in the year...,

And didn't they already release an oil catch can?

Hmm, wasn't the complaint that the original CUSCO can didn't have baffling to catch the oil?

I like that new catch can better than their old one, and it looks like it has their custom mount in the center. The design of the Radium catch can is great, but I'm not really prepared to fab up a mount for it.

From an engineer's perspective, I think the sight glass for the oil level in the new Cusco can is way cool.

Did a little digging and found a few new things on the Japanese section of Cusco's site:

D-shape steering wheel
Rear Diff Carrier Brace
Rear Adjustable Toe and Trailing Arms
New Strut Bar Styles (Carbon + Aluminum)

I generally look on autostyle-usa.com/86/ , they pretty much have a list of recently released JDM parts including the Cusco stuff.

the steering wheel I saw, the rest I didn't. Not bad at all.

Like the look of strut bars, but I like it a lil flashier (blue!!!)

LOL they are still routing the catch can hoses to the front breather, which is useless and has very little blowby gases. The rear PCV is where it should go to catch the majority of oil vapors and condensation. More on that here

CUSCO YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG!
