Upgrade Chassis Rigidity with the Tamiya 53544 Plate

The Tamiya 53544 Gun Metal Chassis Plate is a precision spare for TGM-02 chassis, intended to reduce flex and provide a firmer platform for setup tuning. It is suitable for racers wanting consistent handling lap after lap.

Precision Stiffening for Tighter Control

The plate's construction raises stiffness where it counts, which can improve turn-in and mid-corner stability. The gun metal surface is practical and discreet, holding up to trackside wear.

Installation and Setup Considerations

This component follows the Tamiya TGM-02 mounting layout for a direct fit. When installing, re-check chassis geometry and alignment to ensure the upgrade complements your existing suspension setup.

Will this plate affect my suspension tuning?

Increasing chassis stiffness changes flex characteristics, which can require small suspension adjustments to regain balance. Expect to tweak shock settings and camber if aiming for optimal handling.

Is any additional reinforcement needed after fitting?

For most users the plate alone is sufficient. If you run extreme power or competition loads, consider inspecting other stress points and using reinforcement where repeated failures appear.

Can I use the original screws or should I upgrade them?

Original screws often work fine, but upgrading to higher grade stainless or alloy fasteners can improve longevity and resistance to stripping. Match thread size and length to factory specifications.
