Take Your Drift Skills Further with the Tamiya Toyota 86

RC drivers chasing realistic drift behavior will appreciate the Tamiya 58551 - 1/10 Toyota 86 Drift Spec. This kit blends faithful body styling with a TT-01D Type-E platform built to tolerate hard practice sessions while remaining tunable for precision slides.

Chassis Design Built for Consistent Slides

The TT-01D Type-E layout is known for straightforward setup and dependable durability, making it a sensible pick for newcomers and seasoned drifters alike. Reinforced components like a separate shock tower and covered gear case improve longevity, while the updated upper deck adds stiffness for more predictable handling. Four-wheel shaft drive helps keep power balanced through corner exits.

Performance That Responds to Driver Input

Fitted with a 540 motor and a blue aluminium heat sink, the model provides steady acceleration suited to drifting. Oil-filled CVA Super Mini shocks soak up uneven surfaces and help you string together smoother transitions. The sealed gearbox and bevel gear diffs reduce wear and lower the need for frequent servicing.

Tweakable Setup and Drift-Focused Parts

The clear polycarbonate body arrives ready for your paintwork, so you can personalise the look. Super Driftech resin tyres are tailored for drift control, offering a predictable slip characteristic. Adjustable caster and toe-in let you refine steering response to suit different track surfaces and driving styles.
