This aluminium motor mount combined with an SSG graphite plate is an aftermarket accessory for Mini-Z MR-02 racers seeking a compact, service-friendly motor support. The aluminium base coupled with the thin graphite plate secures the motor while minimising added height and weight for indoor circuits.
Compatibility and purpose: intended to replace the original motor mounting interface on MR-02 RM chassis and follows the MR-015 motor mount pattern referenced in the designation. It supplies a more rigid mounting surface to help preserve gear mesh under cornering and acceleration, functioning as a tuning and durability improvement rather than a performance power mod.
How to install: remove the OEM motor mount and transfer any usable screws, spacers, and bearings to the new mount, aligning the SSG graphite plate so motor clearance and pinion engagement remain consistent. Check gear mesh after fitting and rotate the drivetrain by hand to ensure smooth movement. Use the correct hex tool and avoid over-tightening around graphite contact zones.
Setup advice and upkeep: use the mount when experimenting with pinion choices or moving the motor for weight balance adjustments. Periodically inspect the graphite for wear, keep mounting faces free of burrs, and confirm motor screw security after several sessions.
