B7-S6AC : Aeration Shock Cap - 980 JPY
These shock caps provide improved initial bump reaction, and may be well suited for bumpier tracks.
Adjusting the amount of oil and air allows the amount of rebound to be adjusted as well.

B7-413W2 : Front hub carrier - 2 degree caster - 580 JPY
Compared to the kit standard 4 degree front hub carrier, the 2 degree version will provide better initial steering response. Although suited for tight track layouts with many corners, in high-grip conditions where traction rolling is an issue, the increased understeer upon corner exit may help prevent traction rolling from occurring.

B7-413W6 : Front hub carrier - 6 degree caster - 580 JPY
Milder steering response than the kit standard front hub carrier, the 6 degree front hub carrier provides improved steering during corner exit, helping to reduce understeer. Very effective on high speed corners.

B7-SS05 : Suspension mount spacer (0.5mm, for 1 car) - 1,280 JPY - Available late April-early May)
B7-SS08 : Suspension mount spacer (0.8mm, for 1 car) - 1,280 JPY - Available late April-early May
B7-SS10 : Suspension mount spacer (1.0mm, for 1 car) - 1,280 JPY - Available late April-early May
Convenient design allows the suspension mounts to be raised quickly, as neither the suspension mount nor screws need to be removed.td>

B7-003H : High traction upper deck 1,800 JPY - Available May 2013
Compared to the kit standard 2.0mm thick upper deck, this thinner version will help improve overall grip on low grip surfaces. However this upper deck can also be used to optimize chassis stiffness where speeds are regulated as in stock class racing, and even in high grip conditions.
