Race-Grade 5mm Chassis for Viper 988

For Viper 988 owners looking to refine handling, the SER903715 5mm Aluminium Hard Coated Chassis adds a stiffer foundation. The hard coat finish protects the plate while preserving precise steering input during fast laps.

Strength That Reduces Flex

The 5mm thickness increases torsional stiffness so the Viper 988 reacts more predictably under braking and acceleration. The hard-coated surface helps limit scuffs and keeps the chassis dimensionally stable over repeated impacts.

Designed Around the Viper 988 Layout

Engineered for the Serpent Viper 988 1/8 GP, the chassis matches factory mounting points for a clean swap. It is ideal when upgrading from the stock item or replacing a fatigued chassis.

How will this change my car balance?

A stiffer 5mm chassis tends to sharpen turn-in and stabilise mid-corner balance. You may need small suspension or tyre tweaks to recover your preferred handling feel.

Is drilling or trimming required?

No routine trimming is needed for Viper 988 builds, since the plate follows the stock layout. Only customised setups might require minor adjustments.

Does the hard coat change weight much?

The hard coat adds minimal mass while improving surface durability. Overall weight stays close to standard aluminium plates of the same thickness.

What maintenance should I perform?

Inspect mounting holes and fasteners after each event and clean grit from the hard-coated surface to preserve finish and prevent wear at contact points.
