Precision Drift Platform for the Tamiya 58455 GT-R

The Tamiya 58455 Nissan GT-R Drift Spec delivers a realistic drift experience rooted in solid engineering. Built on the TT-01D Type-E chassis, the kit provides a tunable base that suits both newcomers and experienced modellers focused on drift control.

Benefits of the TT-01D Type-E Chassis

The TT-01D Type-E is a lightweight bathtub chassis that simplifies assembly while maintaining structural strength. Its 4WD shaft-driven layout offers consistent power delivery and the coil spring-damped, four-wheel independent double wishbone suspension supports stable, predictable handling. Sealed front and rear differential gearboxes help keep performance consistent.

Components Tuned for Drift

Included drift hardware features an RS-540 sport-tuned motor with an aluminium heat sink to assist cooling. CVA mini shock dampers and soft springs give compliant suspension action, and adjustable upper arms allow you to fine tune steering geometry for preferred drift angles.

Design of the Super Driftech Tyres

Super Driftech tyres use a resin and rubber blend and are 26mm wide, engineered for extended drifting. They offer controlled slip characteristics that support smooth transitions and longer slides on suitable surfaces.

Options for Upgrades and Styling

If you want to personalise the car, Tamiya offers options such as the LED Light Unit TLU-01 with white and red LEDs, plus upgrade parts like a Hi-Torque Servo Saver and carbon damper stays to change feel and durability.

A 2-channel radio, servo, battery pack and charger are required but not included. Check the manual for compatible sizes and mounting locations before sourcing components.
Tyre wear is expected with frequent drifting; keep spare Super Driftech tyres or alternative compounds on hand and rotate or replace them as needed to maintain consistent performance.
