Track-focused upgrade from 3Racing

The 3Racing Sakura D5MRGA Graphite Battery Plate, model number SAK-D557/GR, is a precision upgrade made for Sakura D5 and D5S chassis. Machined graphite gives a favourable strength-to-weight balance, helping reduce overall mass while adding structural support where it counts for club and competition use.

Advantages of a graphite battery plate

Graphite delivers a strong but light mounting platform, improving weight distribution and reducing flex compared with heavier stock plates. The result is crisper corner entry, better mid-corner stability and improved throttle response on paved and smooth surfaces.

Fitment and simple installation

Designed to match Sakura D5 series mounting points, this plate fits cleanly and secures your battery with minimal play. Installation is straightforward using the original hardware and the robust construction holds up under regular track running.

The plate sits to the chassis mounting pattern and supports common stick and low profile packs used in Sakura D5 builds, though pack thickness should be checked before final installation.
By lowering weight and centralising mass, drivers often notice sharper turn-in and steadier rotation which can help reduce lap times through technical sections.
Inspect mounting holes and fasteners regularly for wear and ensure mounting hardware is tightened to spec; graphite itself is corrosion resistant but can scratch if handled roughly.
