Race Oriented 3.5mm Graphite Rear Tower

The 3Racing SAK-U418 rear shock tower uses 3.5mm graphite to deliver a stiffer rear mounting surface for the Sakura Ultimate chassis. The reduced compliance helps the suspension react more predictably under lateral loads, aiding setup precision at the track.

Tuning Benefits and Chassis Response

Built to support competitive setups, the SAK-U418 sharpens rear feedback so changes to shock damping and anti-roll settings are easier to evaluate. This makes it a useful part for drivers who tune their rear end for finer balance and traction control during corner exit.

Fitment and Practical Considerations

Manufactured to match Sakura Ultimate mounting geometry, the tower is intended for quick replacement of OEM parts. Check fastener torque and alignment after installation, and pair the tower with setup adjustments to realise its full handling benefits.

How does the SAK-U418 affect tuning sensitivity?

By reducing rear flex the SAK-U418 makes setup changes more noticeable, allowing finer adjustments to damping and spring rates to be evaluated with less masking from chassis movement.

Should I change swaybar settings after installing this tower?

A stiffer rear mount can alter roll balance, so reassessing anti-roll bar stiffness and endlink position is recommended to restore the desired handling characteristics.

Is the tower compatible with aluminium upgrade parts?

The SAK-U418 is compatible with standard Sakura Ultimate mounting geometry; when combining with other upgrades check for stack-up and clearances to ensure proper fit and function.
