Tamiya 24293 1/24 Scale Open Interface SC430 2006 Championship Replica Kit  [24293]

Tamiya 24293 1/24 Open Interface SC430 - Detail and Heritage

The Tamiya 1/24 scale model of the Open Interface SC430 faithfully recreates the car that won the 2006 Super GT championship. This kit reflects the Lexus SC430 that succeeded the Supra in Toyota's racing line, and recalls the season where drivers Juichi Wakisaka and Andre Lotterer secured a decisive result at Fuji Speedway to clinch the title.

Racing Background and 2006 Season

The 2006 Super GT campaign highlighted the SC430's competitiveness and engineering. On-track performance and race strategy combined to make the season memorable, and this model gives builders a way to explore that chapter of Japanese motorsport history.

Kit Details and Construction Notes

This Tamiya kit is aimed at hobbyists who value accurate detailing. A pre-painted semi-gloss black die-cast underpanel adds realistic weight and appearance. Metal transfers reproduce mirror finishes and marque emblems, while clear glazing with black masking stickers simulates factory tinted windows. The kit also includes nylon mesh for the front duct and lifelike synthetic rubber tyres to enhance realism.

Enhancing the Build

Builders seeking extra fidelity can fit the optional SC430 Photo-Etched Parts Set, sold separately, to add fine-scale details and refine the finished model.
