Race-Inspired Replica: Tamiya 57705 XB Calsonic Skyline GT-R '99

The Tamiya 57705 XB Calsonic Skyline GT-R '99 (R34) models the famous Calsonic livery and race-era details at a 1/10 scale. The finished shell and decal placement recreate the period appearance that appeals to historic race fans and model collectors.

Faithful Construction, Ready to Drive

Built on a dependable 4WD XB chassis, the polycarbonate body preserves the GT-R's shape while keeping the model lightweight. The pre-painted shell and fitted decals deliver a display-quality finish straight from the box.

Driving Characteristics

The electric drive provides a smooth, controllable powerband suitable for club cruising and track days. The suspension is tuned to offer predictable feedback through corners so pilots can focus on line and speed without constant setup changes.

Position Within the Range

Unlike more modular kits, the 57705 prioritises authenticity and convenience. It stands apart from platforms like the TT-02 by delivering a period-correct race replica that requires minimal setup before hitting the track.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/10
  • Chassis: 4WD

The Tamiya 57705 XB Calsonic Skyline GT-R '99 is ideal for hobbyists who want an accurate race replica that is ready to run. Its combination of visual accuracy and robust mechanics makes it a suitable pick for display and driving alike.

Yes, as an XB model it arrives pre-built and trimmed, so minimal assembly is needed before you can run it.
Standard 1/10 scale brushless motors and compatible ESCs are a common upgrade path; choose components that match your weight and speed goals for balanced handling.
The 4WD chassis and polycarbonate body are robust for regular track sessions, though you should avoid heavy impacts and inspect mounts and servo linkages after each session.
