Iconic R32 Skyline Rendered as a Drift Model

Since its debut in 1989 the Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 has been a benchmark, and this Tamiya 1/10 reproduction captures its silhouette in polycarbonate. Accurate touches such as the side mirrors and rear wing lend authenticity, making the model suitable for display or competitive drifting practice.

TT-02D: Purpose Built for Drifting Practice

The TT-02D chassis offers a drift-tuned foundation that remains straightforward to maintain. The kit includes 24mm wide drift tyres mounted on matte metal-plated wheels to match the car's stance. A shaft driven 4WD system is complemented by a 4-wheel double wishbone suspension and front and rear CVA oil shocks for controllable slides. Full ball bearings and an aluminium motor heat sink support reliable performance during longer runs.

Adjust camber and toe settings, experiment with shock oil weights, and try different tyre compounds to refine entry and mid-drift balance.
Genuine replacement bodies, trim parts and decals are typically available through Tamiya dealers or authorised stockists if you need to refresh the shell.
Yes, the TT-02D is commonly used in club-level drifting where tuners appreciate its balance between simplicity and upgrade potential.
