Race-Oriented Upper Deck for Sakura Advance 2K18 EVO

The 3Racing SAK-A533/HA upper deck is a race-focused graphite component developed to tighten chassis response on the Sakura Advance 2K18 EVO. It provides a stiffer mounting plane to improve precision when dialling in suspension and steering geometry for competitive running.

Technical Advantages of 2.0mm Graphite

A 2.0mm graphite plate reduces unwanted chassis compliance while maintaining low mass, allowing quicker weight transfer and more direct communication through the steering. This stability assists in setting finer shock emulsion and spring rates.

Precision Fitment and Setup Impact

The SAK-A533/HA matches the stock Sakura Advance 2K18 EVO mounting layout for plug-and-play installation. Once fitted, teams can expect reduced variables in handling, which simplifies iterative setup changes during practice sessions.

Designed for Tuners and Racers

For competitive drivers the deck supports aggressive setup strategies, enabling clearer assessment of roll centres, anti-dive/anti-squat effects and damper valving changes without chassis flex masking results.

How does the deck affect damper setup choices?

Increased chassis stiffness tends to make damper responses more pronounced, so you may choose slightly softer damping to retain mechanical grip while benefiting from improved chassis feedback.

Will this change traction roll behaviour?

Yes, reducing chassis flex alters how roll is distributed. Expect a quicker initial roll response and adjust anti-roll bars or shock rates to achieve desired balance.

Setup advice for time attack or race heats?

Start with baseline damper settings, then use small incremental changes to shocks and sway rates. The stiffer deck makes small setup moves more predictable during timed runs.
