Authentic Porsche Carrera GT Body for 1/10 Scale

The Tamiya 51183 Porsche Carrera GT Body Set brings a faithful Carrera GT outline to 1/10 on-road projects with a clear polycarbonate shell that is ready for finishing. It is suited to modelers who want realistic proportions and clean surface detail for painting and decal work.

Kit Contents and Finishing Advice

The set includes a 1.00mm thick polycarbonate body shell, plus a spoiler, mirrors and sticker sheet to complete the exterior look. The shell is supplied without drilled mounting holes, giving you the control to position mounts to match your chosen chassis.

Chassis Compatibility and Use Cases

This body fits several common Tamiya chassis types including TT-01, TGS, TB-02 and TA-04, although it does not suit short wheelbase versions. Whether for track or display, plan body-post placement and tyre clearance to avoid interference during use.

Does the package include body posts or fixings?

No fixings are included. You will need to supply body posts or screws compatible with your chassis and may wish to use nylon washers for a snug fit.

How should I paint the shell to avoid runs?

Apply thin, even coats of polycarbonate spray paint and allow proper drying time between layers to reduce runs and maintain detail.

Can I use this body on TA-04 chassis?

Yes, the shell is listed as compatible with TA-04 non short wheelbase variants. Confirm wheelbase and mounting positions before final trimming.

Any maintenance tips for painted shells?

Clean painted shells with a soft cloth and mild soap if needed; avoid abrasive cleaners and store the body away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
