The KZ-14/5/SG graphite body plate is sized for Kyosho Mini-Z MR-015 mounting points and supports the Mercedes-Benz CLK-DTM 2002 shell. It is an aftermarket chassis accessory that provides a more stable platform for the body without altering MR-015 geometry.
Material and role: the plate uses graphite reinforcement to stiffen the area around the body mounts and reduce local shell flex. On a Mini-Z car this improves shell alignment and makes setup comparisons more consistent.
Installation notes: fit the plate between the body shell and the stock body mounts following the MR-015 body removal procedure. Standard hex drivers are sufficient; confirm screw lengths and spacer positions during assembly to prevent internal contact.
Tuning considerations: the plate mainly affects body alignment and the consistency of body-mounted adjustments rather than suspension characteristics. Fit it when you need repeatable body positioning for aerodynamic checks or setup validation.
