Scale Rally Replica of the Subaru Impreza WRC 2008 by Tamiya

Construct a precise 1/10 scale model of the Subaru Impreza WRC 2008 with this Tamiya kit. The assembly mirrors the rally car aesthetic from the 2008 season and provides practical tuning options for realistic handling.

DF-03Ra Chassis Features

The DF-03Ra offers a longitudinal motor layout and shaft-driven 4WD for balanced behaviour on varied surfaces. Ball differentials fore and aft and full ball bearings contribute to efficient, durable drivetrain operation.

Suspension and Shock Performance

Engineered for rally-style driving, the suspension supplies ample travel while CVA Damper Super Mini shocks control motion front and rear. Adjustable rear suspension arms make it possible to fit shorter wheelbase bodies when required.

Setup Choices and Included Gear Options

Tune camber with threaded upper arms and select one of three gear ratios: 8.22:1, 7.90:1 or 7.45:1 to suit your driving style. The kit also includes two spur gears (78T, 75T) and two pinion gears (29T, 32T) to refine performance.

The Tamiya 58430 Subaru Impreza WRC 2008 is a dependable kit for modellers seeking authentic detailing and practical tuning. It fits those new to rally kits as well as experienced hobbyists who wish to adjust handling and gearing.

A set of small screwdrivers, hobby nippers, hex drivers, and files will cover most assembly tasks; a paint setup and masking tools are useful for finishing the bodyshell.
No, the kit does not include an ESC or batteries. You will need to source a compatible speed controller, battery and charger to power the Type 540 motor and the radio gear.
Tamiya replacement parts and common wear items like bearings, diff gears and suspension parts are generally easy to obtain from specialist retailers.
Regularly inspect and clean the drivetrain, renew lubrication on gears and bearings, and check gear mesh and suspension mounting points after heavy running.
