Mini 4WD FRP reinforcement - Tamiya 15431 JR FRP

The Tamiya 15431 JR FRP Reinforcing Plate Set is a targeted reinforcement option for builders seeking improved chassis stiffness. Suited to MS and Super XX chassis types, these FRP plates help protect alignment and reduce flex under racing conditions.

Compatibility overview

These plates are designed to be placed between the centre unit and the front or rear assemblies on MS chassis, adding torsional stiffness where the chassis commonly twists. They also fasten to side stays on Super X layouts for additional mounting options.

Advantages during racing

Improved frame rigidity helps maintain intended roller geometry and reduces unpredictable movements when cornering hard. The Tamiya 15431 plates support steadier handling and make fine tuning of suspension and rollers more effective.

Will these plates fit all MS chassis variants?

They are compatible with standard MS chassis designs. Some custom or modified MS variants may need small adjustments for perfect fitment.

Do they alter maintenance needs?

The plates are low maintenance but inspect mounting points regularly after race sessions to ensure screws remain secure and there is no cracking from impacts.

Should I change roller setup after fitting?

You may need to recheck roller alignment and adjust spacing or angles since increased chassis stiffness can change how the rollers interact with the track walls.

Are replacements available if damaged?

FRP plates can be replaced individually. Keep spares on hand if you run in contact-heavy events where impacts are more likely.

How do these compare to aluminium braces?

FRP offers a balance of stiffness and some flex, while aluminium is stiffer and heavier. Choice depends on handling goals and weight limits for your class.
