Rally Heritage: Tamiya 58273 Subaru Impreza WRC 2001 Replica

The Tamiya 58273 Subaru Impreza WRC 2001 Kit recreates a standout rally car at 1/10 scale and honours the original driven by R. Burns. The kit combines a detailed clear body with the TL-01 chassis for an authentic building session and realistic road manners.

Overview of the TL-01 Platform

The TL-01 platform is prized for its simple but robust design, making maintenance and repairs easy. The shaft-driven 4WD system keeps power to all wheels while independent double wishbone suspension helps maintain grip and steering accuracy.

Build Notes and Running Gear

This kit ships with a 540-brushed motor that provides controllable power for street and club circuits. Friction dampers and rubber radial tyres smooth the ride, and the clear polycarbonate body is ready for polycarbonate paint. An ESC is sold separately, and the setup supports gear ratio and ride height adjustments.

For builders who enjoy period rally subjects and hands-on setup work, the Tamiya 58273 provides a dependable base with room to tune handling and personalise the bodywork.
