Tamiya 43524 Nitro 1/10 XBG Raybrig NSX '05 Touring RTR  [43524]

Raybrig NSX Racing Heritage

The Honda NSX has been a benchmark of Japanese sports car engineering and its Super GT presence is part of that legacy. The 2005 Raybrig NSX ran under Team Kunimitsu with backing from Tamiya, powered by an M-Tec twin-turbo V6 and dressed in the distinctive blue and white Raybrig livery. Drivers S. Phillipe and J. Dufour helped showcase the car on an international stage, reflecting the global reach of the series.

Inside the Tamiya 43524 Build

The Tamiya 43524 - 1/10 XBG Raybrig NSX '05 is aimed at enthusiasts who want nitro performance without an overly complex setup. It sits on the TNS chassis and works with many TG10-Mk.1 option parts for upgrades. Power comes from the O.S. FS-12SW engine with a dual needle carburetor and a recoil starter for dependable starts.

The chassis uses a double-deck layout with a reinforced aluminum lower deck and a sturdy plastic upper deck for torsional strength. Four-wheel independent double wishbone suspension with long-span arms provides stable contact with the road. With four oil dampers fitted, the car handles bumps and track transitions with controlled damping.

Handling, Drive and Electronics

Drive is delivered through a shaft-driven 4WD system and front and rear sealed differential gearboxes to distribute power reliably. Full ball bearings are fitted throughout to reduce friction and improve longevity. The included Expec SP R/C unit with a trigger-style transmitter gives intuitive control for both newer drivers and experienced tuners.

The Tamiya 43524 suits hobbyists who value period-correct racing looks and tunable nitro performance. Its durable construction and compatibility with option parts make it a solid choice for both club meets and casual track days.
