Upgrade the FF03 Gear Case with Carbon

The Tamiya 54288 carbon reinforced A parts are produced to replace the kit's fiberglass reinforced plastic with a stiffer carbon composite. This upgrade targets improved longevity and steadier drivetrain behaviour under aggressive use.

Why Use Carbon in the Gear Case

Carbon brings greater rigidity where the gearbox mounts to the chassis, helping to preserve gear alignment and reduce unwanted movement that can cost lap time. It is an effective upgrade for racers and hobbyists alike.

Quick Fitment Overview

These parts match the FF03 and FF03 PRO dimensions and bolt locations so you can install them without cutting or drilling. The swap is straightforward for anyone familiar with basic kit servicing.

An experienced builder can fit the parts in under 30 minutes; allow more time if you need to remove other components for access or to refresh bearings.
The weight change is minimal, but the increased stiffness can alter chassis flex characteristics. You may want to fine tune spring and damper settings after fitting.
Yes, pairing the carbon gear case with reinforced suspension or bulkheads can create a more robust platform, just check compatibility and mounting points before buying additional parts.
