This aluminium motor stiffener is an RC-scale accessory made for TAMIYA TA05-IFS and TA05-R chassis, supplied by 3Racing as model TA05-IF09/LB. It is intended to reinforce the motor mounting area to cut down local flex under load.
Fitment is specific to the TA05-IFS and TA05-R configurations listed above, and the part is used to replace or augment the standard motor mount on these Tamiya layouts. The aluminium construction increases stiffness where the motor meets the gearbox and chassis.
Installation notes: the stiffener fits at the motor location and lines up with existing chassis and motor mount points on TA05-IFS and TA05-R. Typical installation follows the stock mounting positions without changing drivetrain geometry and is aimed at a firmer motor support for track-focused setups.
Tuning impact: fitting an aluminium motor stiffener reduces motor movement during acceleration and braking, which helps preserve pinion-to-spur engagement and can improve consistency from lap to lap. Use this alongside suspension and gearbox tuning rather than as a single performance cure.
