This side damper is made for Kyosho Mini-Z MR-02 (MM) style vehicles and works with Mini-Z II compatible chassis formats. It provides added lateral damping that complements the car's shock and anti-roll setup, helping to reduce chassis roll and control transient body movement around narrow indoor circuits.
Fitting the unit follows standard Mini-Z upgrade steps: remove the body shell, open the chassis area, locate the designated slot or mount, install the damper and check alignment with the suspension geometry. Typical hobby hex drivers and the original chassis fixings are normally enough; always confirm fit on your chassis before final tightening.
As an adjustable tuning item, the side damper influences roll balance and transient damping without altering primary spring rates or shock oil. It can help even out front-to-rear roll behaviour, cut sudden oversteer on corner exits, and stabilise the car during braking transitions. Use it alongside measured shock or sway changes to refine handling consistently.
