Tamiya 84378 TA06-R 1/10 Dual-Drive On-Road Chassis Kit  [84378]

Explore the Tamiya 84378 TA06-R Chassis

If you race or prep touring cars, the Tamiya 84378 - 1/10 TA06-R Chassis Kit is a technical platform worth building. This kit goes beyond a simple build project by exposing the mechanical details behind high-performance on-road handling. Its 4WD dual-drive layout gives tuners a precise, controllable base to refine setup and balance.

Powertrain Design: Dual-Drive Setup

The TA06-R uses an engineered dual-drive arrangement that differs from standard 4WD systems. A dedicated rear gearbox combined with a dual belt drive to the front axle helps even out torque delivery and improves front-end traction during cornering and acceleration.

Suspension Tech and Construction

Key suspension pieces are taken from the TRF418 race chassis, giving the TA06-R refined geometry and consistent performance. The independent double wishbone layout works with oil-filled aluminium dampers to give predictable responses across asphalt and smooth surfaces. Carbon-reinforced plastic parts raise stiffness while keeping weight down.

Setup and Tuning Options

Adjustability is a strong point of this kit. Builders can alter camber, toe, ride height, gear ratio, wheelbase, track width and damper angle to tailor handling for different tracks or driving styles. That tuning range makes the TA06-R a flexible choice for both practice and competition.

The Tamiya 84378 TA06-R Chassis Kit gives experienced tuners and those stepping up from basic kits a detailed, adaptable touring car platform that rewards careful setup and maintenance.
