Tamiya 58434 Calsonic IMPUL GT-R TB-03 1/10 Scale Chassis Kit  [58434]

Detailed Look at the Tamiya 58434 Calsonic IMPUL GT-R

The Tamiya 58434 Calsonic IMPUL GT-R 2008 captures the character of a celebrated Super GT car in 1/10 scale, mounted on the TB-03 chassis for a balance of realism and tunability. The model echoes the Team Impul livery raced by Tsugio Matsuda and Sebastian Philippe.

Design Elements and Aerodynamic Fit

The bathtub frame houses a motor cooling duct to help dissipate heat during longer runs. With an in-board front suspension design and horizontal dampers, the body can ride low for tighter aero clearance, and the shell is also compatible with the TA05-IFS for alternate configurations.

Motor Mount, Differentials and Steering Hardware

The newly designed aluminium one-piece motor mount makes gear setup and maintenance more accessible. The combination of front and rear ball differentials, reversible short suspension arms, and TRF416 front and rear knuckles yields a controllable handling platform for competitive driving.

What You Need to Finish the Model

This kit includes the body, wheels, tyres, and a Type 540 motor, but requires an ESC, a 2-channel radio, a battery pack, and a charger to be operational. Choosing your own electronics allows you to tune acceleration and runtime to suit your style.

The Tamiya 58434 Calsonic IMPUL GT-R 2008 TB-03 is well suited to hobbyists who want a scale-accurate model that also rewards setup refinements on track and during display.
