Overview of the Tamiya 57801 Nissan GT-R Drift Model

Designed for RC enthusiasts who enjoy controlled slides, the Tamiya 57801 Nissan GT-R reproduces the GT-Rs shape in a 1/10 scale polycarbonate shell. The model balances scale appearance with chassis features tuned for drifting performance.

Features of the TT-01ED Drift Chassis

The TT-01ED brings rigidity via fiberglass-reinforced nylon deck and gear covers, which helps keep chassis flex in check during long drift runs. Super Driftech Tires are fitted to deliver consistent lateral slip, while the 4-wheel double wishbone suspension and CVA Super Mini oil dampers keep the car responsive through transitions.

Body Detail and Power Components

The body includes separately moulded mirrors and rear wing parts for accurate scale detail, and metal-plated light housings with LEDs for believable front and rear lighting. The RS540 Sport-Tuned Motor with aluminium heatsink supplies reliable power and improved cooling for sustained drifting.

The Tamiya 57801 Nissan GT-R is a practical choice for club drifting and backyard practice, offering realistic detailing and a chassis that responds to setup changes.

Start by adjusting shock oil and rear toe; softer rear dampers and a slight front toe-in can help the car break traction predictably.
The clear polycarbonate shell arrives unpainted, allowing you to choose your own colour scheme and masking for the GT-R styling.
Hard, smooth surfaces such as polished concrete or asphalt are ideal for Super Driftech Tyres to get consistent slides and repeatable lines.
Yes, the chassis accepts common RS540 replacements and aftermarket ESCs when you want more power or finer throttle control.
