Tamiya 58270 1/10 Subaru Impreza WRC Arai TB-01 Build Kit  [58270]

Subaru Impreza WRC History Brought to Scale

The Tamiya 58270 1/10 Subaru Impreza WRC Arai Version celebrates the car that Toshihiro Arai piloted to success, reflecting the model's strong WRC presence in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Tamiya captures that era with accurate detailing and a faithful rally silhouette for model drivers to enjoy.

What Makes the TB-01 Tick

The TB-01 chassis is favoured for its durability and the flexibility it gives enthusiasts to modify geometry and components. Low centre of gravity and a balanced layout help keep the model steady, while the 4WD system and suspension tuneability deliver consistent steering response across different conditions.

On-Road Behaviour and Setup Tips

With an electric powertrain, swapping motors and changing gear ratios is simple, letting you tune for quicker acceleration or improved traction. Novices will find the kit approachable, and experienced builders can refine shocks, differentials and weight distribution for sharper handling.

Choosing Between TB-01 and Other Tamiya Frames

The TB-01 appeals to builders who prefer a hands-on approach and rugged construction. While the TT-02 focuses on user-friendliness and straightforward assembly, the TB-01 gives more room for tuning and tougher running conditions.

This Tamiya 58270 kit suits hobbyists who want a realistic rally model with space to upgrade. Its TB-01 chassis is a solid base for both casual driving and competitive tuning.
