Highlights

This JR Side Mass Damper Set gives Mini 4WD enthusiasts a way to fine tune chassis behaviour by adding mass to the sides of AR or Super XX models. The design aims to smooth out transitions and reduce abrupt weight shifts during turns.

Design notes and fitment

The kit includes custom side plates that bolt to AR chassis side stays and accept the supplied mass dampers. You get both bowl-shaped and cylindrical dampers so you can try different setups to suit various circuits.

Setup flexibility

Mix weight configurations to adjust handling under braking, mid-corner, and on exit. Gun metal ball caps and mounting screws are provided to keep the setup secure under race stresses.

Performance use

For club racing and practice sessions the dampers help maintain tyre contact and aid smoother line holding. Their compatibility across AR and Super XX chassis makes them a versatile tuning option.

I have been purchasing Tamiya products with Rcjaz for a couple of months now, selection is awesome and service is quick and reliable, considering I leave half way around the world.
Most AR and Super XX builds accept the plates with standard mounting points; minor trimming is rarely necessary.
Bowl dampers often offer smoother travel on uneven surfaces, but testing both shapes will reveal what works best on a specific circuit.
You can experiment with heavier masses but be mindful of increased inertia affecting acceleration and handling balance.
Inspect fasteners before every race day and tighten any that show movement to prevent mid-race issues.
While Mini 4WD do not have suspension in the conventional sense, added side mass changes how the chassis reacts to weight transfer and can make handling feel more planted.
