Tamiya 47397 HKS Nissan Skyline GT-R Gr.A Scale Kit  [47397]

Heritage Touring Car: Tamiya 47397 HKS Skyline GT-R

The Tamiya 47397 captures the iconic 1993 HKS Nissan Skyline GT-R R32, offering a faithful miniature of a touring car classic. It is aimed at modellers who want authentic detail alongside solid mechanical performance.

Key Elements of the TT-01E Chassis

The TT-01 Type-E platform uses a low-slung bathtub frame to position the motor and battery for improved balance. Fiberglass reinforced nylon on the upper deck and gear covers strengthens the layout, while double wishbone suspension and differential gears give consistent handling on corners.

Scale Accuracy and Finish

The polycarbonate body is light and durable with pre-cut wheel openings for tidy tyre clearance; separate mirrors and an aerodynamic rear wing increase visual fidelity. Three marking sticker sheets plus masking stickers are included to recreate the HKS paint scheme, and 5-spoke wheels with slick tyres enhance track grip.

Powertrain and Upgrade Options

This set includes a Tamiya Torque Tuned Motor and ESC, providing a dependable baseline. The TT-01E supports many optional upgrades, allowing owners to tailor power delivery and handling to their driving style.

The Tamiya 47397 HKS Nissan Skyline GT-R Gr.A is a good choice for hobbyists seeking an authentic historic racer that can be kept stock or modified for improved circuit performance.
