The Tamiya 58285 Calsonic Skyline GT-R 2001 pays tribute to Team Impul's 2001 All-Japan GT Championship entry, including the cars campaigned by Kazuyoshi Hoshino and Satoshi Motoyama. The kit focuses on period-correct appearance and practical build steps for hobbyists.
This 1/10 scale body captures the original car's aggressive profile, from its pronounced bumper spoiler to the wide blister arches and sizeable rear wing. The detailed shell is modelled to keep visual accuracy while limiting excess mass to support better cornering behaviour.
Under the shell the TA04-S chassis provides a reliable 2-belt full-time 4WD system and a resin double-deck frame for stable tuning. The design supports competitive setup changes, and you will need to supply your own motor, battery and radio gear to complete the car.
The Tamiya 58285 Calsonic Skyline GT-R 2001 combines authentic liveries with a tunable TA04-S chassis, suitable for collectors who like to fine tune handling and power. It works well as a display model or a track-focused build.
