Restore the settled, controlled ride your Toyota was engineered to deliver with the KYB Excel-G Rear Suspension Strut 341125. This nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube strut installs as a direct-fit REAR replacement for the 1992-1995 Toyota Paseo and the 1991-1994 Toyota Tercel — see the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine-level details. KYB builds Excel-G on the same assembly lines as its OE production and calibrates each unit to bring back the vehicle's original designed damping rather than alter it, earning the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
- Restores designed control: helps return the intended handling, stability, stopping response, and lane-change behavior of your Toyota.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific valving: hand-assembled, in-house damping valves manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
- Strong strut body: thick strut bodies and brackets minimize flex to help maintain correct alignment.
Excel-G helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed, since those systems rely on the suspension, brakes, and tires working as intended. To reduce noise and vibration, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5088), and you can protect the strut from dirt, debris, and salt with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB108).
