Part #: 222 495 A

Overview

The Cusco Pillar Side Brace is a high-performance chassis reinforcement component designed specifically for Nissan Silvia S14 and 240SX models. Engineered to improve structural rigidity, this side brace enhances the vehicle's overall handling, stability, and safety during spirited driving or track use. Whether you're a performance enthusiast seeking better cornering response or a daily driver looking to reduce flex and improve durability, this pillar side bar is an essential upgrade.

By reinforcing the B-pillar area, the Cusco Side Brace helps support the critical points where chassis flex often occurs, especially in two-door configurations.
