Overview of the Tamiya 15242 Super X FRP Plate

The Tamiya 15242 Super X FRP Reinforcing Plate provides targeted reinforcement for Mini 4WD models using the Super X layout. Its FRP construction adds strength to strategic points on the chassis, helping models hold line and resist deformation under load.

Where it fits and what it does

Designed to complement the Super X chassis, the reinforcing plate can be bolted to common stay positions to firm up the front, rear or side areas. It works alongside existing parts to boost structural integrity without heavy modification.

Practical track improvements

By limiting chassis twist, the plate improves predictability through fast corners and reduces speed loss on exits. Racers tuning gear ratios and roll characteristics will find it helps make setup changes more repeatable.

Value for tuners and hobbyists

For those refining Mini 4WD setups, the Tamiya 15242 plate is a straightforward upgrade that supports longer part life and more stable handling, making it a sensible pick for club racing and practice sessions.

The plate is optimised for Super X chassis geometry. Other chassis may need modifications for proper alignment.
There is a small weight increase, but the trade off is improved stiffness and more consistent handling under load.
Light sanding of edges and checking hole alignment before final tightening helps avoid stress points and ensures a flush fit.
