Carbon Upgrade Pack for the XV-01 Chassis

The Tamiya 54446 Carbon Reinforced K & KK Parts strengthen steering linkages and the battery hatch area on the XV-01 to cut unwanted flex and sharpen handling. They are aimed at tuners who want a lightweight reinforcement that keeps mounting geometry unchanged.

Handling Improvements from Carbon

By stiffening key attachment points, carbon parts reduce deflection when cornering or applying power, which helps deliver more predictable turn-in and better lap-to-lap consistency on sealed or carpeted surfaces.

Quick Swap Fitment

These components are engineered as direct replacements for factory XV-01 parts, so fitting is simple and does not require drilling or trimming. Follow normal assembly practice and torque values for best results.

They fit the stock XV-01 layout; if your car has aftermarket bulkheads, widened axles or non-standard mounting points, double-check compatibility before fitting.
Carbon is much stiffer and can crack under severe impact, so while it improves handling it is not as impact-tolerant as flexible plastic.
Yes, small changes to camber, toe or shock damping often help match the stiffer steering geometry and restore balance through corners.
