Setup-Focused Rear Shock Tower for Precision Tuning

The 3Racing Sakura XI Rear Shock Tower SAK-XS106/FRP is specified to provide a firmer shock mounting interface while keeping mass low. Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic reduces local deflection at mount points, providing clearer feedback to adjustments in spring rates and damping. This makes the tower a useful upgrade when iterating suspension settings for lap time improvements.

Technical Highlights

  • Material: FRP chosen for its combination of controlled stiffness and impact resilience under race loads.
  • Compatibility: Machined to match Sakura XI mounting geometry for repeatable alignment and easy swap-in.
  • Performance: Minimises mount flex to preserve shock kinematics, aiding setup repeatability and driver confidence.

How does the FRP tower affect shock tuning feedback?

By reducing mount flex, the tower delivers a clearer response to changes in shock damping and spring rates, making small tuning steps more predictable.

Is any chassis trimming required for fitment?

No trimming should be necessary on a standard Sakura XI chassis; verify hole alignment and torque fasteners to the recommended values.

What inspection routine is recommended for race use?

Inspect mounting faces and bolt locations before events, check for hairline cracks, and replace if any deterioration is observed to maintain consistent setup.
