Precision graphite shim for motor offset tuning

The F103GT-25/SG 3mm graphite shim motor mount plate is a compact spacer intended to provide controlled motor offsets on Tamiya F103 and F103GT chassis. Designed for setup work, the shim allows incremental changes in motor position without altering the factory mount geometry.

Fitting procedure is direct: insert the 3mm graphite shim between the motor casing and mount, retain original fasteners and verify gear mesh after securing. Because the shim only alters spacing, confirm clearance for wiring and gearbox components prior to final assembly.

In a tuning workflow the shim is useful for small adjustments to improve pinion-to-spur engagement and to influence front-to-rear weight distribution. Use it alongside standard checks of gear alignment and bearing preload as part of a methodical setup process.

The shim provides a precise 3mm offset between the motor and its mount to allow fine tuning of motor position for gear engagement and balance adjustments.
No specialised tools are necessary beyond basic hand tools; however, verify screw thread engagement and torque when adding the 3mm spacer.
Integrate the shim into systematic setup checks: adjust motor offset, confirm mesh, run-in drivetrain and recheck bearing preload to validate changes.
