Takashima D-13 Black Luxury Edition Spring Steel Chassis

Following the successful release of their spring steel touring car chassis, Takashima D-13 now introduces the Black Luxury Edition spring steel chassis which is finished with advanced DLC coating technology. Every difficulty became motivation for further development and improvement and due to the physical characteristics of spring steel, it is highly sensitive to humidity and salt in the air, making it extremely prone to surface rust. While this does not affect its performance, it can impact the overall visual experience for drivers. After extensive testing and multiple coating trials, Takashima D-13 ultimately selected DLC technology as the solution. This not only effectively prevents rust, but also transforms the chassis from its original silver finish into a deep black tone, while preserving the natural metallic grain texture. The result is a perfect fusion of industrial precision and mechanical artistry — the machining lines flow across the entire surface, giving the product a strong, refined presence. Paired with their upcoming 120° carbon steel 12.9 grade black colour TORX screws, it creates a striking and cohesive visual statement on the track.
