Assemble the Porsche 956 in 1/10 scale with Tamiya 47508

The Tamiya 47508 Porsche 956 Group C kit blends historic race car styling with a thoughtfully engineered chassis, making it suitable for both display models and track runs. It delivers authentic looks alongside straightforward mechanical layout and tuning potential.

Scale bodywork and authentic fittings

The extended rear body is crafted in durable polycarbonate to keep weight low and details sharp. Separate light lenses, a detachable wing and black ABS side fixtures let model makers recreate original components faithfully.

Composite chassis design and drivetrain layout

The chassis uses an ABS bathtub reinforced with FRP plates and space frame pieces for strength and tuned suspension movement. The Sport-Tuned 540 motor drives a spur and pinion direct system with a ball pressure plate differential for predictable acceleration and handling balance.

Wheel and tyre setup for sealed surfaces

Dish front wheels and 5-spoke rear wheels are supplied with high-grip sponge tyres optimized for sealed tracks. Wheels arrive unpainted so you can match period liveries or apply your own scheme.

The Tamiya 47508 Porsche 956 Group C kit is well suited to enthusiasts seeking period accuracy with a chassis that can be tuned for better on-road performance.

The kit captures the main proportions and key features of the Porsche 956, including the long-tail body, separate light units and wing details, offering a convincing scale appearance.
Keep sponge tyres clean and free of dust or oils, store them in a dry location, and check for wear before each session to maintain predictable grip levels.
Most compact 2-channel receivers, servos and brushed-compatible ESCs fit without modification; check space allowances and mounting points before finalising your electronics choices.
Assembly time depends on experience and painting complexity but allow several evenings for a careful build including paint, decals and setup checks.
