The KZ-14/1/SG plate is a graphite reinforced replacement designed to interface precisely with the Kyosho Mini-Z MR-015 Fairlady 350Z GT 2005 shell. It is supplied as a direct-fit backing that preserves original mounting geometry and hole alignment.
Functionally, the plate increases local stiffness behind the body shell to reduce flex and maintain repeatable body position under dynamic loads. Its use is focused on mechanical support and consistent fitment rather than cosmetic enhancement.
Installation follows standard Mini-Z servicing steps: remove the factory body plate, locate the replacement so mounting holes align with the MR-015 shell, and secure using the OEM screw set. No special tooling is required beyond common Mini-Z drivers and hand tools.
For setup work, treat the plate as a chassis support element that helps stabilise body mounts and limit deformation during normal operation and light tuning adjustments.
