Improve Steering Precision with a 2mm CFRP Upper Deck

The Tamiya 3404027 - TRF418 Upper Deck is a 2mm carbon fibre reinforced plastic plate crafted to stiffen the TRF418 chassis. The increased rigidity aims to reduce flex and aid predictable steering inputs at speed.

Advantages of Choosing 2mm CFRP

Carbon fibre reinforced plastic delivers a strong but lightweight platform. Swapping to this 2mm upper deck helps stabilise the chassis under load, enabling finer steering adjustments and better corner entry control.

Direct Fit and Easy Upgrade

Made to match the TRF418 layout, this upper deck installs without modifications. Its direct fit and simple installation process make it suitable for racers who want a quick, effective chassis upgrade.

Will this change weight distribution?

The deck adds minimal weight compared with metal parts, so any shift in balance is usually minor; most effects are felt through reduced flex rather than mass change.

Is drilling or trimming ever needed?

No trimming is expected for a stock TRF418, though verify your car if you use other aftermarket components that alter mount points.

How does this deck affect mid corner feel?

A stiffer upper deck generally sharpens mid corner turn-in and makes the chassis less prone to roll-induced understeer, but you may need to adjust rear roll characteristics to suit your style.
