SAK-A578SO Graphite Upper Deck for Setup and Tuning

The 3Racing Graphite Upper Deck SAK-A578SO is engineered to increase upper chassis stiffness on the Sakura Advance 21, reducing undesirable twist under lateral loads. By firming the chassis, the deck improves steering precision and allows finer adjustment of suspension and anti-roll settings during setup work.

Material and tuning benefits

Graphite offers a low weight solution that raises torsional rigidity without significantly adding mass. This change alters the chassis response curve, enabling more consistent weight transfer and better predictability when adjusting camber, toe or roll distribution.

Fitment, integration and setup notes

The 3Racing Graphite Upper Deck installs to the stock Sakura Advance 21 mounting points and is compatible with common upgrade components. For competitive tuning, fit the deck and then re-evaluate damper valving and sway bar rates to optimise front to rear balance.

What handling changes should I expect after fitting the SAK-A578SO?

Expect reduced chassis flex, quicker turn-in and a more responsive front end. The change helps the suspension deliver consistent tyre contact through high load transitions.

Does the deck require additional modification for competitive setups?

No machining is typically required. After fitting, focus on rebalancing damper settings and roll control components to take full advantage of the reduced chassis compliance.

Which setup adjustments pair well with this upper deck?

Consider slightly softer front damping or altered anti-roll rates to maintain grip while benefiting from improved chassis stiffness. Use incremental changes and test lap consistency to find optimal settings.
