Tamiya 18654 - Toyota Gazoo WRT/Yaris: Mini 4WD performance model

The Tamiya 18654 Toyota Gazoo WRT/Yaris Mini 4WD brings rally styling to a compact build. Using the MA (Midship AERO) chassis, it is designed to deliver tidy handling with parts that also suit display builds.

Midship AERO chassis - tuned for stability

The MA layout centres the motor to aid balance and trim the aerodynamic profile. It features six low-friction rollers plus a rear skid bar to help keep the model stable at higher speeds. The monocoque frame keeps assembly straightforward for model makers at all skill levels.

Authentic bodywork and hardware

This kit recreates the Yaris WRC form through a four-piece shell with a pronounced nose and separate rear wing sections. Silver dish wheels and low-profile black tyres complete the period-correct look. A Type 130 double shaft motor is included for dependable running straight out of the box.

Personalise with Grade-Up Parts

There are many Grade-Up Parts available for owners who want to tweak handling or reduce weight. Choose rollers, gears or chassis accessories to tailor the car to specific circuits or personal style.

Specifications

  • Chassis Type: MA (Midship AERO)
  • Motor: Type 130 double shaft
  • Gear Ratio: 4:1
  • Wheels: Silver dish

A straightforward build can be completed in a few hours depending on experience. Take time with decals and body fit for the best finish.
Low-profile black tyres work well on smooth concrete, but experimenting with rubber compounds and tyre widths can help find the best grip.
The kit can be displayed as supplied, but accurate paint work on the body shell and careful decal application will significantly enhance display quality.
Tamiya parts and common Grade-Up components are widely available from hobby shops and online retailers, making maintenance and upgrades straightforward.
