Fans of the classic Supra and hands-on RC hobbyists will appreciate this Tamiya release. The pre-painted Metallic Blue polycarbonate shell captures the JZA80 silhouette while the BT-01 underpinnings make setup and tuning approachable for a wide range of skill levels. The kit appeals to those who want a ready-to-run look with room to customise.
The BT-01 chassis is built for flexibility. You can select between two wheelbase lengths and alter the drivetrain from front-wheel to rear-wheel drive without major teardown. Those options create up to six practical configurations, so you can tune the model for cruising, track work, or display.
The layout uses a 4-wheel double wishbone suspension with a symmetrical arrangement and friction dampers to deliver neutral handling. The straightforward design keeps assembly and maintenance simple while giving predictable responses through turns and on straights.
The lightweight polycarbonate body reproduces the JZA80 profile and is complemented by separate mirrors, rear wing and light housings for extra realism. The kit ships with silver 10-spoke wheels and racing radial tyres to complete the period-correct presentation.
This Tamiya Supra on the BT-01 chassis is a versatile kit that suits newcomers wanting an easy-start model and experienced builders who enjoy setup options. It balances display-ready styling with practical mechanical features.
