Performance tuning: center plate for GTXE

This carbon center mounting plate is engineered to stiffen the centre area of GTXE flat chassis designs. By reducing torsional flex it gives a truer connection between the chassis decks and improves the car's reaction to driver inputs.

On firmer track surfaces the stiffer centre translates into a faster, more direct steering feel and better composure through high-speed turns. The component is intended to fine-tune handling characteristics and does not alter suspension geometry or ride height settings.

Installation fits into the central mounting region used on GTXE flat chassis and is suitable for experienced builders. It complements suspension and shock changes and requires no drivetrain or electronic modifications to function as intended.

Specifications

  • Item: GTXE Carbon Center Mounting Plate - Stiff - Flat Chassis
  • Material: Carbon fiber
  • Model Number: 354253-H
  • Compatibility: GTXE flat chassis configurations, GTXE 2027

Fit this plate when you want crisper steering and reduced chassis flex on medium to high-traction circuits; work in small suspension changes to keep handling predictable.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

How does the plate affect lap-time oriented setups?

By reducing torsional flex, the plate yields quicker steering response and steadier mid-corner balance, which can help drivers extract speed through transitions when paired with tuned damping.

Should I change shock settings after installing it?

Yes. Small adjustments to damping and possibly slightly softer anti-roll settings are recommended to compensate for the added centre stiffness and preserve overall traction.

Will it make the car nervous on corner exit?

If not balanced with suspension changes, a much stiffer centre can shift grip characteristics. Fine-tune spring rates and damping to avoid a nervous rear or sudden snap on exit.

Can I run this with other chassis reinforcements?

Yes. The plate works with other reinforcement parts, but consider the combined effect on stiffness and balance before making multiple changes at once.

Is it worth fitting for club-level racing?

For drivers aiming for sharper steering and more consistent handling at medium to high grip venues, it can be a worthwhile tuning part when used alongside measured suspension tweaks.

What is the plate made from and how should I treat it?

Manufactured from carbon fiber, clean with a soft brush or cloth and avoid impacts that can crack or delaminate the part. Check mounting points regularly for secure fitment.
