Group 5 Icon Recreated

The Tamiya 57827 brings the Toyota Celica LB Turbo Gr.5 back as a faithful 1/10 scale RC replica. It evokes the bold Group 5 look from the late 1970s while using modern RC engineering to deliver a rewarding display and driving model for enthusiasts.

TT-01E Platform for On-Road Control

The TT-01E chassis underpins the build, offering a robust shaft-driven 4WD layout that promotes stable power transfer and predictable handling. The platform is straightforward to service and has plenty of upgrade paths for hobbyists who like to adjust gear ratios, shocks, and steering setups.

Authentic Bodywork and Livery

Tamiya has replicated the Celica body in polycarbonate with carefully applied markings and trim that reflect the original race livery. The shell fits the chassis accurately and presents well on display or at club track events.

Drive Feel for Collectors and Racers

Whether used as a display piece or a weekend track car, the Tamiya 57827 can be dialed in for different conditions. The suspension geometry and adjustable parts make it possible to tune cornering balance and responsiveness to match driving style.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/10
  • Chassis: TT-01E
  • Drive Type: 4WD
  • Body Material: Polycarbonate
  • Motor: Included
  • ESC: Included

The Tamiya 57827 is a strong choice for modellers who want a historically accurate Group 5 car with a reliable, upgrade-friendly chassis. Its balance of detail and tunability makes it a practical option for both display and competitive club runs.

Assembly time varies, but expect several evenings for careful builders. The TT-01E layout is straightforward, so a methodical approach using the manual keeps the process smooth.
Start with upgraded shocks and stiffer sway bars to sharpen turn-in, then consider stronger drivetrain parts. Tyres matched to the surface also produce the biggest difference.
The kit includes motor and ESC but you will need a compatible radio, receiver, and a charged 7.2V NiMH or LiPo pack to run the car.
Regular checks on drivetrain bits, wheel nuts, and suspension screws are recommended. Clean polycarbonate bodies with mild soap and inspect gears and bearings after high-speed runs.
