Improve Rear End Response

The 3Racing SAK-D556/GO Graphite Rear Shock Tower brings a lightweight, stiff mounting point to the Sakura D5 chassis. Its graphite makeup trims mass at the rear while keeping mounting accuracy for consistent handling lap after lap.

Why Graphite Works Well

Graphite reduces unwanted bending under load, helping the suspension work more predictably. Installing the SAK-D556/GO results in crisper turn-in and steadier rear traction on both smooth and slightly rough surfaces.

Compatibility and Quick Fit

Built to the Sakura D5 specification, this tower lines up with factory holes for a hassle-free swap. No special tools or cutting are normally required, so it is an easy weekend upgrade.

Can I use this with my existing rear shocks?

Yes, the SAK-D556/GO keeps the same shock mount spacing as the Sakura D5 stock tower, so most standard rear shock setups remain compatible.

Is graphite fragile compared with plastic?

Graphite resists bending and is lighter than many plastics, but it can fracture under severe impact. It is best regarded as a performance part for drivers seeking sharper handling rather than a sacrificial bumper option.

Any setup tips after fitting?

After fitting, check shock positions and rebound; you may reduce rear spring rate slightly to balance the stiffer mounting and retain overall traction.
