Racing-Oriented Front Shock Tower

The 3Racing SAK-D5626/BU Graphite Front Shock Tower is engineered to improve front bulkhead stiffness on Sakura D5 and D5S platforms, giving tuners a firmer mounting surface for shock components and tie-in points. Its material selection balances rigidity and minimal weight to preserve dynamic response.

Setup Benefits and Tuning

A stiffer tower reduces compliance in the front end, allowing shock and camber adjustments to produce more predictable changes. That benefits drivers aiming to dial in understeer and oversteer characteristics through incremental setup changes.

Precision Fit and Installation

Manufactured to match the OEM hole pattern, this tower installs using the original fixings and maintains alignment with stock geometry. Its accurate fit ensures consistent baseline geometry for repeatable setup testing and race-day adjustments.

How does increased front stiffness affect camber behaviour?

Reduced flex keeps camber changes more consistent under load, which helps maintain tyre contact patch during high lateral acceleration and makes camber tuning more effective.

Is this recommended for drivers who change setups frequently?

Yes, the repeatable stiffness provides a stable baseline that improves the reliability of iterative setup changes between sessions.

Will the graphite affect shock mounting hardware wear?

Graphite provides a solid bearing surface for the shock mounts; inspect mounting holes for wear in high mileage race cars, but normal competition use does not typically accelerate hardware wear.
