Product Brief

The Tamiya 95478 Carbon Wide Rear Plate is engineered for Mini 4WD AR chassis, using rigid carbon to limit rear flex and improve handling repeatability. The plate supports a variety of roller diameters so racers can configure wheel paths to their preferred racing line.

Highlights

Roller Compatibility: Supports 9mm, 11mm, 13mm, 17mm, and 19mm rollers
Chassis Compatibility: Works with MA, FM-A, MS, AR, VS, Super-II, Super X, Super XX, and Super TZ-X chassis

Why Racers Choose This Plate

Reducing unnecessary flex at the rear helps maintain line consistency lap after lap. The wide layout and carbon stiffness are particularly valuable when running aggressive corner speeds or testing multiple roller arrangements.

Can I use lightweight rollers with this plate?

Yes, lightweight rollers reduce rotational mass and can improve acceleration, but ensure their profile matches the rail or guide setup to avoid instability.

Does carbon affect the car balance?

Carbon itself alters stiffness rather than weight distribution. Expect crisper rear behaviour; you may need to adjust front setup or tyre choice to rebalance handling.

Are special tools needed to fit the plate?

Basic hand tools for Mini 4WD assembly are sufficient. If drilling or trimming is required for custom fits, use a fine drill and clamp the plate to avoid splintering.
