Iconic Rally Form: Tamiya 58273 Subaru Impreza WRC 2001

The Tamiya 58273 Subaru Impreza WRC 2001 Kit recreates a landmark rally car at 1/10 scale, reflecting the example campaigned by R. Burns. The model combines a detailed clear body with the TL-01 chassis to deliver a rewarding build and credible on-road behaviour.

Features of the TL-01 Chassis

The TL-01 chassis offers a balance of simplicity and robustness that appeals to both newcomers and experienced hobbyists. Its shaft-driven 4WD provides predictable traction while the independent double wishbone setup maintains good steering response and control.

Construction and Running Details

The kit includes a 540-brushed motor that gives a steady, manageable power output. Friction dampers and rubber radial tyres help to tame bumps, and the clear polycarbonate body is ready for polycarbonate paint. Note that an ESC is not included and the model supports tuning through gear ratio and clearance adjustments.

The Tamiya 58273 is an attractive choice for modellers who want a classic rally subject with straightforward setup and painting options. The TL-01 chassis is a reliable foundation for both display and spirited on-road running.
