Historic Rally Detail and Practical Chassis

This 1/10 scale kit recreates the Subaru Impreza WRC '97 with attention to its period appearance. Built on Tamiya's TA03F 4WD chassis, it blends accurate styling with a chassis that rewards setup and maintenance work.

Drive and Balance of the TA03F

The front motor arrangement of the TA03F changes the handling footprint compared with mid-motor designs, yielding steadier turn-in and balanced straight line stability when properly setup. Four-wheel drive helps maintain grip through variable conditions.

Body Accuracy and Chassis Strength

A clear polycarbonate body captures the car's lines while the ABS bathtub frame protects the mechanicals. The independent double wishbone suspension helps manage rough patches and keeps tyre contact consistent for better control.

Build Experience and Future Options

The Tamiya 58210 is approachable for those new to kits and offers an upgrade path for experienced builders. It ships with a 540 type motor and leaves room for higher performance electronics and structural enhancements.

For collectors and racers who appreciate a classic livery and a chassis that can be improved incrementally, the Tamiya 58210 Subaru Impreza WRC '97 provides an enjoyable build and a durable platform for track or club events.

Many third party upgrades such as alloy shock stays and uprated turnbuckles are made to fit common Tamiya layouts, but check compatibility notes for TA03F specific parts.
A reliable 2 channel system with a mid-torque steering servo is usually sufficient. Choose an ESC and receiver that suit the battery type you plan to run.
Adjust tyre compound, tyre pressure where applicable, and tweak toe and camber settings. Softer tyres and small changes to camber can significantly affect corner grip.
Paint the inner surface using suitable polycarbonate paints, mask carefully for details, and allow proper curing time for a durable finish.
