Racing front body post plate

This graphite front body post plate is engineered as an aftermarket upgrade for Kyosho FW05 chassis and compatible V One variants, intended for racers and tuners who need more rigid front shell mounting. The plate targets repeatable alignment and reduced flex at the front post interface to aid consistent lap times.

Fitment covers Kyosho FW05-R, FW05RR and the V One family shown in the product title; confirm chassis mounting points prior to installation. The component is designed to interface with standard body posts and existing fasteners when they match the chassis holes.

Installation notes for the workshop: remove the OEM plate, inspect and transfer compatible posts and screws, then torque the graphite plate to recommended chassis fasteners. Use calibrated drivers for repeatable clamp force and retain the stock plate for baseline testing.

Setup and performance brief: increasing front mount stiffness alters local flex characteristics and can deliver crisper body alignment under lateral load, which helps when tuning corner entry and mid corner balance. Implement changes incrementally and log handling differences for setup refinement.

Verify hole spacing and thread engagement on your chassis, confirm post height matches the body shell clearance, and ensure fastener lengths do not contact internal electronics.
After fitting, check body alignment at rest and under suspension travel. Small adjustments to mounting position can help fine tune corner behaviour and shell clearance.
Use controlled test runs comparing lap consistency and body movement against the stock plate. Record handling notes and adjust mounting and body positioning to quantify improvements.
