This Tamiya kit brings the 2004 Subaru Impreza WRC to the bench as a faithful 1/10 replica on the TT-01 chassis. The moulded polycarbonate body captures exterior bits like mirrors and the distinctive wing, and the decal sheet helps reproduce period-correct liveries for display or running.
The TT-01 is prized for its straightforward build and consistent handling. Its shaft-driven 4WD system spreads drive to all four wheels, and the longitudinal motor layout helps lower the centre of gravity. With double wishbone suspension and sealed diffs, the chassis provides predictable behaviour and easy tuning.
The 2004 Impreza saw updates to comply with new WRC rules, refining aerodynamics, engine response and suspension setups. Piloted by notable drivers such as Petter Solberg, the car scored wins on a variety of surfaces and remains a favourite among rally fans for its adaptability.
Owners can upgrade springs, dampers, drive components and electronics to suit different driving surfaces or personal preferences. The TT-01's modular layout makes it a flexible platform for step-by-step improvements.
Tamiya 58333 reproduces the 2004 Subaru Impreza as a solid, tuneable model for those who enjoy accurate scale detail and stepwise performance upgrades. It works well for display, club events and casual track sessions.
