Classic rally lines adapted for RC builders

The Tamiya 58718-60A Toyota Celica GT-Four ST165 reproduces the rally icon in a 1/10 polycarbonate body. This kit is targeted at builders who value period correctness and a chassis that is straightforward to service and upgrade. The TT-02 base balances ease of build with tuning potential.

Why the TT-02 suits both novices and tuners

The TT-02 is a shaft-driven 4WD chassis with the battery mounted on the left and the motor on the right to help weight distribution. The use of identical suspension arms reduces spare part complexity, and the simple gearbox layout makes gear swaps and maintenance user friendly.

Finish, decals and functional detail

The 1.0mm polycarbonate body captures the Celica profile while staying light for good performance. Included are rally-style dish wheels, treaded radial tyres, decal sheets and masking tape to simplify painting. Brake-disc style wheel hubs enhance the visual authenticity of the finished model.

For those who enjoy accurate scale detail and practical tuning options, the Tamiya Toyota Celica GT-Four ST165 on the TT-02 provides an adaptable platform for road and rally-style running.

Assembly time varies by experience but most builders can complete the kit in several weekends, including trimming, painting and fitting electronics.
The car handles well on smooth tarmac and compact dirt. Adjust tyres and ride height for looser surfaces to maintain traction and prevent chassis drag.
Use a sharp hobby knife and a fine file for window and bumper cutouts, and test-fit before painting. Mask carefully to keep lines crisp when spraying.
Altering wheelbase changes stability and turn-in. Shorter wheelbase gives quicker steering response while a longer wheelbase improves straight-line stability.
