Scale Le Mans Prototype for RC Fans

The Tamiya 58617 - 1/10 Nissan GT-R LM Nismo Launch Version is aimed at hobbyists who want a faithful small-scale version of Nissan's LMP effort. The model reflects the unconventional front mid-engine architecture that made the full-size car notable at endurance events.

F103GT Platform: Handling and Build Quality

The F103GT chassis combines a 2WD direct drive system with a rigid FRP double deck frame to deliver stable handling. Front coil spring independent suspension paired with a rigid rear layout offers consistent response for precise driving on smooth surfaces.

Authenticity and Adjustability

The kit's polycarbonate body reproduces the prototype silhouette, while features like the adjustable gear case and ball differential permit setup changes for traction and speed. Fixed camber and adjustable toe let tuners refine cornering behaviour to suit different tracks.
