Description
The Verus Engineering Pitch Stop Mount is designed to significantly increase drivetrain rigidity and deliver a more direct, motorsports-inspired driving experience in the Toyota GR Corolla. The factory pitch stop mounts are designed with compliance in mind and can allow excessive drivetrain movement, which can contribute to a vague driving feel and reduced shifter precision.
During hard acceleration and deceleration, excessive engine movement can cause the drivetrain to rock back and forth rather than efficiently transferring power to the ground. Upgrading to the Verus Engineering Pitch Stop Mount helps control this movement, improving drivetrain stability, shifter engagement, and overall power delivery.
The Pitch Stop Mount assembly is CNC machined in-house by Verus Engineering from 6061-T6 aluminum using 5-axis CNC machining. The assembly includes three different bushing durometers, allowing you to select the stiffness level that best matches your vehicle modifications, driving style, and desired NVH characteristics.
Based on Verus Engineering's in-house testing, the 70A durometer bushings are recommended for most applications because they provide the lowest level of NVH compared with the 80A and 90A options.
The Verus Engineering Pitch Stop Mount installs using the factory mounting locations without requiring permanent modifications to the vehicle or engine. It is an excellent upgrade for track-day enthusiasts, performance-focused street drivers, and drag racing applications looking for improved drivetrain control and more consistent power delivery.
Important: The drivetrain-side mount is not compatible with Automatic (DAT) Toyota GR Corolla models.
Note: Anodized components may fade over time due to the heat present in the engine bay.

Performance & Engineering
The Verus Engineering Pitch Stop Mount was developed to address the drivetrain movement allowed by the factory mounting system. By increasing drivetrain rigidity, the mount helps reduce engine rocking during aggressive acceleration and deceleration.
Controlling drivetrain movement helps improve the connection between the engine, transmission, and chassis. This results in a more precise shifter feel and improved power delivery, particularly during aggressive driving, track use, and drag racing.
The three included bushing options allow the driver to tailor the mount to the vehicle's setup. The 70A bushing provides the least NVH and is recommended for most applications, while the stiffer 80A and 90A options can provide increased drivetrain rigidity for more performance-oriented setups.
Each Verus Engineering Pitch Stop Mount is machined from a solid piece of 6061-T6 aluminum on DMG Mori 5-axis CNC equipment. The result is a strong, precisely manufactured component with an OEM-plus appearance and direct-fit installation.
Installation
The Verus Engineering Pitch Stop Mount is designed as an OEM-style bolt-on upgrade and requires no permanent modifications to the vehicle or engine. Verus Engineering provides installation instructions and support to assist with installation.
Proudly Made in the USA
