Cusco Camber Pillowball Upper Mount Front

1980–1984 Toyota Starlet KP61

Part #: 100 410 A

Overview

If you're looking to enhance your Toyota Starlet KP61's handling and performance, the Cusco Camber Pillowball Upper Mount is an excellent upgrade. Designed for enthusiasts who want precise camber adjustments beyond the factory limits, these adjustable camber plates replace the soft rubber factory upper strut mounts with durable, high-strength metal mounts featuring spherical (pillow ball) bushings. This upgrade allows you to fine-tune your front negative camber for improved grip, cornering stability, and overall driving dynamics.

Whether you're into spirited street driving, autocross, or track days, these camber plates provide the flexibility to optimize your suspension geometry. By increasing negative camber, you'll achieve better tire contact during aggressive cornering, leading to enhanced handling and reduced tire wear. The Cusco camber plates are a must-have for performance-minded drivers seeking to push their vehicle's limits while maintaining reliable and predictable steering response.

Construction & Design

The Cusco camber plates feature a robust design utilizing high-quality steel components with a durable coating to resist corrosion. The spherical pillow ball bushings replace the factory rubber mounts, providing a more direct and responsive connection between the suspension and chassis. This design minimizes compliance and flex, translating to sharper steering and more precise camber adjustments. The plates are engineered with CAD software to ensure perfect alignment and fitment, making installation straightforward for experienced DIYers or professional mechanics.

The full range of adjustment allows you to dial in the optimal camber angle for your specific driving needs, whether for daily driving, autocross, or track use. The high-strength construction ensures consistent performance under demanding conditions, and the pillow ball bushings are designed to withstand the stresses of aggressive cornering while maintaining smooth operation.

Performance & Handling

By upgrading to Cusco's pillowball upper mounts, you'll notice a significant improvement in steering response and cornering stability. The ability to increase negative camber enhances tire grip during aggressive turns, helping you achieve better lap times and more confident handling. The direct connection provided by the spherical bushings reduces unwanted compliance, resulting in a more predictable and responsive steering feel. These mounts are especially beneficial when combined with other suspension modifications aimed at performance driving.

Installation & Fitment

The Cusco Camber Pillowball Upper Mounts are designed as a direct bolt-on replacement for the factory upper mounts on the Toyota Starlet KP61 (1980–1984). Installation typically requires basic suspension tools and alignment adjustments. No cutting, drilling, or major modifications are necessary. For optimal results, a professional wheel alignment is recommended after installation to set the desired camber angle and ensure proper suspension geometry.

Because these mounts allow for full camber adjustment, you can tailor your setup to your driving style and preferences, whether for street use or competitive motorsport.
