I had to drop my exhaust this weekend. All went well except the frozen bolts on the cusco power brace. There was no getting them off and i had to sawzall the brace off and drill out the bolts. I am not sure why the cusco power brace comes with the hex head garbage. Nevertheless as i aim to replace the brace i am not sure what i did with the regular bolts that the stock brace had and rather than going to toyota if anyone knows the thread size it would be most appreciated.

What kind/type of bolts come stock on the brace? I'm trying to take mine off so I can install an intake an heat shield for the turbo.

They’re talking about the under body brace, not the strut brace. But if your question is about the stock bolts under the hood they’re E14, a 6-point 11mm socket will fit them just fine if you don’t have external torx sockets. If you’re asking about the bolts that come with the Cusco brace I have no idea.

Hey to double back to this I bought the car with zero brace so I have no hardware but if I buy those Amazon bolts and the Cusco brace that will work and those will be the only ones I need?
Which brace? Hardware should all be included if you buy the cusco brace new.

oh thanks I couldn’t find that info anywhere so that’s what I was looking for the chassis power brace my car when I bought it was a CPO and yet I went to put a exhaust on and realized I didn’t even have a chassis brace so I am just gonna get the Cusco one and deal with it but I am not sure how they CPOed my Supra because it had a ton of wrong things that were not stock to Toyotas promise but I got it from ATL and I’m so far away it is just easier to do myself and bite the bullet
Was it missing punctuation?
