Fine Tune Suspension with Tamiya 42165 TRF Pistons

For drivers aiming to refine handling, the Tamiya 42165 TRF damper pistons provide a straightforward way to tailor damping. The pre-dimpled faces let you open precise holes to tune oil flow for different surfaces and events.

Which Dampers Work with These Pistons

These pistons are compatible with a selection of TRF dampers, such as the 53901 TRF Special Damper (F103GT) and the 53571 TRF Damper Set (Fluorine Coating). They are intended for users running compatible TRF shock assemblies who want extra tuning control.

Practical Drilling Tips

Try a conservative hole size to begin and evaluate behaviour across a few runs. Adjust by enlarging holes or adding more ports in controlled steps until the suspension response meets your expectations.

They fit many TRF shock types, but confirm the piston seat diameter in your shock before committing. The product works well with units like the 53901 and 53571 listed above.
After drilling, run short test sessions and compare lap times and feel. Small incremental changes are the safest way to dial in performance without unexpected handling shifts.
Yes, they remain usable after careful drilling, but avoid over-enlarging ports which can weaken the piston. Clean thoroughly to remove any debris before reassembly.
