Race-Grade Rear Shock Tower for Inferno GT3

The Kyosho IG157 CNC Machined Rear Shock Tower is a race-oriented replacement part for the Inferno GT3 that focuses on reliable mounting and stiffer rear support. The gunmetal finish adds a professional look while the CNC precision maintains accurate shock geometry.

Durability Where It Counts

Built from CNC-machined material, the Kyosho IG157 reduces flex at shock mounts and resists damage from hard landings and heavy cornering. The result is a rear assembly that stays more consistent over multiple runs.

Simple Swap-In Upgrade

Made to the original Inferno GT3 mounting layout, this tower normally installs with existing screws and requires minimal setup. After fitting, test a few runs and tweak shock positions to match your driving style.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho 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.

Does the Kyosho IG157 change chassis flex noticeably?

Yes, replacing the stock tower with the IG157 typically reduces local flex at the shock mounts, which can tighten rear-end feel. Adjust suspension settings after swapping parts to suit your track.

Are longer screws required with this tower?

In most cases your current shock tower hardware will work. If you fit different shock bases, check screw engagement and replace with equivalent length fasteners if needed.

Can I use this on a car I race on both carpet and asphalt?

The IG157 suits mixed on-road surfaces because it enhances mounting consistency. You may still need to alter shocks and tires between carpet and asphalt to optimise grip.

How do I check the tower after a heavy impact?

Inspect mounting holes for ovaling and confirm shock pivot bolts turn freely. Replace the tower if any cracks or permanent bends appear, and retorque fasteners to spec.
