Tamiya 58454 1/10 Scale Honda S800 Racing M-05 Chassis Kit  [58454]

Honda S800 Heritage Captured in 1/10 Scale

In the mid 1960s Honda moved from motorcycles into small sports cars, and the S800 launched in 1965 as a clear example of that shift. The lightweight 710kg coupe and roadster carried a high revving engine rated around 70hp and could reach roughly 160km/h. Tamiya recreates that era with this 1/10 scale model, letting builders enjoy a compact but faithful tribute to the original S800.

Engineering That Rewards Precision Driving

The Tamiya 58454 - 1/10 RC Honda S800 Racing sits on the M-05 chassis, prized for balanced handling and sharp steering. The polycarbonate shell reproduces the S800 lines while the monocoque frame helps centralize mass and lower the centre of gravity. The result is improved stability and confident cornering on technical layouts.

Easy Upgrades for Better Handling

Owners can enhance performance with Tamiya option parts like the M-Chassis Aluminum Damper Set or the M-05 Aluminum Front and Rear Uprights for stronger suspension support. Fit the M-05 Ball Bearing Set and Titanium Screw Set to reduce friction and increase reliability during frequent running sessions.

The Tamiya 58454 - 1/10 RC Honda S800 Racing is a strong choice for hobbyists who enjoy detailed scale models and chassis tuning. Its solid M-05 platform and upgrade path suit newcomers learning setup and experienced drivers refining lap times.
