The Tamiya 58316 Subaru Impreza WRC 2003 reproduces the iconic WRC car in detailed 1/10 scale and sits on the TB-02 chassis. The kit blends faithful external detail with a chassis that handles predictably for club and display use.
Derived from the TB Evolution III concept, the TB-02 bathtub frame provides a sturdy platform with CVA dampers and independent double wishbone suspension at each corner. This setup yields consistent handling characteristics across varied smooth surfaces.
The polycarbonate body mirrors the 2003 Impreza WRC styling, including the prominent rear wing and aerodynamic elements. The shell is durable for spirited laps and is well suited to painting and livery work for period accuracy.
Equipped around a Type 540 motor with shaft-driven 4WD, the Tamiya 58316 provides balanced traction and steady acceleration. The medium narrow slick tyres mounted on 18-spoke racing wheels replicate the appearance and grip profile of the era.
The Tamiya 58316 offers a convincing period-correct WRC model with a robust chassis platform, suitable for enthusiasts who value both authenticity and practical handling.
