Upgrade shock response with aeration pistons

The Tamiya 51539 piston set is a simple way to influence how aeration-type big bore dampers behave. Included are four pistons, each drilled with two 1.6mm holes, allowing targeted damping tweaks without major parts changes.

Designed for Tamiya big bore aeration shocks

These pistons fit Tamiya Buggy Big Bore Aeration Dampers (Items 54504/54505). For riders wanting a wider tuning range, you can carefully open additional holes using a pin vise to fine-tune the shock's flow rate.

Practical setup advice

For drivers who race on mixed terrain, swapping piston flow rates is an effective way to balance grip and chassis control. Small piston changes can reduce pitching and improve landings for buggies.

They are intended for aeration-type Big Bore Dampers from Tamiya, specifically items 54504 and 54505, so they may not fit other damper styles.
Adding small holes increases fluid or air flow, which can soften damping response or change rebound characteristics depending on your setup.
The set includes four pistons, enough to service a standard buggy's four dampers, making it practical for a full piston swap.
Make one change at a time, record results, and test on a familiar section of track to judge effects on cornering and landings.
