A faithful 1/12 scale Ferrari 288 GTO from Tamiya

Model builders and drivers will recognise the TamTech-Gear approach in this 1/12 rendition of the Ferrari 288 GTO. The kit melds authentic styling with a compact GT-01 chassis tailored for balanced performance.

GT-01 package and driving characteristics

The GT-01 layout is optimised for a low centre of gravity and accepts the type 370 motor for efficient propulsion. Rear-wheel drive produces a natural steering feel and allows precise throttle control during cornering.

Chassis components and drivetrain overview

Independent double wishbone suspension at all corners and horizontally mounted front dampers help keep the model planted. The transmission uses a ball differential, slipper clutch and universal shaft, backed by full ball bearings to reduce rolling resistance.

Scale bodywork and accessory parts

The polycarbonate body mirrors the Ferrari's lines and is mounted in reverse to preserve a clean exterior. A driver figure and separately moulded mirrors are supplied to enhance the assembled look.

Tamiya 57103 is suitable for those who prioritise authentic looks and a chassis that rewards thoughtful setup.

Yes, the detailing and body proportions make it an excellent display model; you can choose to omit electronics if you only want a static build.
Verify gear mesh, slipper clutch setting and bearing condition, then perform a gentle trim run to dial in shocks and steering endpoints.
Use paints designed for polycarbonate bodies and apply a clear coat sparingly; masking and light coats will give the best finish without adding excessive weight.
Tamiya spare parts for the GT-01 platform and body components are generally available through hobby retailers and specialist dealers.
