Tamiya # 58733 1/10 R/C TOYOTA SUPRA (JZA80) (BT-01)
Length: 457 mm. Image shows assembled and painted kit.
The fourth generation Toyota Supra (JZA80) was announced as Toyota’s flagship sportscar in 1993. Its top grade RZ model employed a 3-liter inline-6 twin turbo engine capable of 280hp, 6-speed transmission, 4-wheel double wishbone suspension and ventilated disc brakes for front and rear. The muscular form and high-spec performance mesmerized fans all over the world and achieved success in motorsports races, and now the car is depicted by this R/C model assembly kit with a realistic polycarbonate body.
Options Galore: the 2WD BT-01 Chassis
The 2WD BT-01 chassis gives a choice of two types of wheelbase, and front- or rear-wheel drive system. Without removing battery pack, motor and R/C equipment setups from the center frame, simply change attachment directions of final gears and steering linkage to switch between front- and rear-wheel drive; front (FR) or midship rear (MR) motor position can be chosen for rear-wheel drive cars. The 4-wheel double wishbone suspension features symmetrical structure and friction dampers. Unitized sections such as motor mount, final gears and suspension facilitate ease of assembly and effective maintenance. An MR setup is recommended for this model of the Supra, but the FR setup is similar to that of the full-size car and will be worth a try.
