Gear Ratio Options for Better Lap Times

Give your model cleaner gearing choices with the Tamiya 48P Pinion Gear Set, available in 20 and 21 teeth. These aluminium pinions suit the TRF501X and DB01 frames and offer tidy, repeatable changes to acceleration and top speed characteristics.

Fitment and Limitations

The Tamiya 53966 pinions are machined for reliable tooth engagement and predictable behaviour on the track. They let you fine tune torque versus speed, but they are not suitable for the 540SH or RS-540 Sport Tuned Motor.

Combine with Other Tamiya Parts

For broader tuning choices, use these pinions with Tamiya parts 53964 and 53965. The combination provides sensible steps for gearing adjustments without radical changes to your driveline.

They fit motors that match the TRF501X and DB01 pinion interface. Confirm your motor shaft diameter and spline count before ordering, and avoid using them with the 540SH or RS-540 Sport Tuned Motor.
On mixed layouts, the 20T gives stronger acceleration out of tight corners, while the 21T helps on the faster sections. Try both to see which suits your driving style.
The pinions come in a titanium-colour finish. Altering the finish is possible but may affect tolerances or finish wear; proceed only if you understand the risks and can maintain accurate fitment.
Standard light gear grease on mating surfaces is sufficient for most users. Avoid heavy compounds that can attract grit and monitor the mesh during service checks.
