Race-ready M-Chassis performance with the Tamiya 47480 M-08R

The Tamiya 47480 M-08R Chassis Kit brings precise handling and tuning options to serious racers. Built for control and adaptability, this kit blends rugged construction with race-focused components to help you dial in lap times.

Upgraded drivetrain for consistent power

The drivetrain features a ball differential, universal shafts with low-friction cross joints, and lightweight aluminum swing shafts to improve power transfer and durability. These parts combine to give smooth torque delivery and stable traction through corners.

Adjustable suspension for sharper cornering

Ride quality is refined with carbon fiber damper stays and big bore aluminum dampers that respond well on technical tracks. Titanium-coated suspension shafts and turnbuckle links let you set camber and toe for precise tuning.

Build quality and tuning detail

Tamiya engineered the kit with premium parts including a carbon fiber battery holder, aluminum ball connectors, and a chassis balance weight so you can fine-tune balance and handling without fabricating parts.

Assembly requires careful attention to suspension and differential setup. Basic model-building experience helps, but clear instructions make the kit achievable for determined newcomers with guidance.
Yes, the kit supports three wheelbase settings so you can tune stability versus agility. Adjusting damper and roll center settings further adapts the chassis to slick or rough surfaces.
Many racers upgrade to stiffer carbon parts, higher-spec dampers or lightweight drivetrain components. Check community forums for proven upgrade paths that match your class rules.
