Detailed Replica of the Weider Honda HSV-010

The Tamiya 1/10 Honda HSV-010 captures the character of the Weider-entered Super GT500 car with an accurately sculpted body and race-correct livery. This kit appeals to modellers and drivers who prioritise authenticity and setup options.

A Look Back at the 2010 Super GT Campaign

In 2010 Team Weider's HSV-010 recorded standout performances, taking pole and a race win at Okayama and securing podium placings at Sepang and Sugo. Their steady results through the season led to the Super GT500 title, a key part of the car's appeal to enthusiasts.

TT-01E Chassis: Stable and Serviceable

The TT-01 Type-E chassis offers a dependable platform with a low-mounted motor and battery to help reduce the centre of gravity. Fibreglass-reinforced nylon components and gear covers boost rigidity, while the 3-piece tie rod setup refines steering feel. The drivetrain uses a shaft-driven full-time 4WD layout with double wishbone suspension and robust differential gears for reliable running.

Visual Authenticity and Running Choices

Separate moulded parts such as the large rear wing and mirrors enhance realism, and the included LED lights simulate head and tail lamps for running in lower light. The car rides on 10-spoke wheels with racing radial tyres, and a spare set of slick tyres on 6-spoke wheels is provided for faster track conditions.

The Tamiya Honda HSV-010 TT-01E is a fine choice for collectors wanting a genuine race replica and for drivers who enjoy tuning their setup. The kit requires a separate ESC and radio, allowing you to select electronics that match your performance goals.

A mid-torque metal-geared servo with a compact case fits well and improves steering precision under load. Choose a servo with a suitable speed and torque rating for racing or spirited running.
Yes, a small brushless 540-format motor and matching ESC can be installed, provided the motor physically fits the motor mount and pinion selection keeps gear mesh within safe limits.
While primarily an exterior-focused kit, builders can add a lightweight cockpit tub, driver figure and decal detailing to improve display authenticity without adding much weight.
The TT-01E is often acceptable in club-level classes that permit shaft-driven 4WD touring cars. Check your club regulations for permitted modifications and tyre rules before competing.
