This 3Racing KZ-14/5/SG is a graphite reinforced plate made for Kyosho Mini-Z MR-015 scale bodies, designed to support the Mercedes-Benz CLK-DTM 2002 body shell. It is an aftermarket chassis accessory intended to fit the MR-015 body mounting points and provide a stable platform for the body shell without altering the MR-015 chassis geometry.
Material and role: the plate uses a graphite-reinforced construction to add localized stiffness to the body mounting area. On a Mini-Z scale car this helps maintain body alignment and reduces flex where the body attaches, which can aid repeatability when testing trim or body-mounted tuning changes.
Installation notes: the plate installs between the MR-015 body shell and its standard body mounts, following the body removal procedure for the MR-015. Basic tools such as a hex driver for existing body screws are sufficient, no special tooling is required. Check existing screw lengths and body spacer positions during installation to avoid contact with internal components.
Tuning considerations: expect changes primarily in how the body holds its shape and in feedback to setup changes rather than direct changes to suspension behavior. Use the plate when you need consistent body positioning for aerodynamic testing or when a stiffer shell interface simplifies repeatable setups for handling comparisons.
