Tamiya 58381: Tom's SC430 in 1/10 Scale

The Tamiya 58381 recreates the Tom's Lexus SC430 raced in the 2006 Super GT series, driven by Juichi Wakisaka and Andre Lotterer. This 1/10 scale model captures the race car vibe while remaining practical for club races and display.

TA05 Chassis Features for Consistent Lap Times

The TA05 chassis is noted for its equal-length drive belts which promote even torque distribution from front to rear. An ultra-low centre of gravity design improves stability through corners, and the single-deck frame keeps servicing straightforward between sessions.

Scale Detail and Functional Components

The polycarbonate body on the Tamiya 58381 balances lightness with durability and comes with large decal sheets to match the race look. A full set of ball bearings reduces friction in the drivetrain for predictable power delivery whether you are practising or racing.

Practical Uses for the Tamiya 58381

Whether used as a retro showpiece or an entry-level race car, the Tamiya 58381 and its TA05 underpinnings support a range of setups. It is a flexible platform for drivers refining setup skills or collectors seeking period-correct models.

The Tamiya 58381 pairs historical race styling with a proven TA05 chassis, making it a reliable choice for hobbyists and racers alike.

Basic modelling tools, screwdrivers, pliers and a hobby knife are sufficient. A small hex driver set and thread-lock for metal parts can be useful for longevity.
Yes, the TA05 accepts most standard on-road electronics. Layout may require minor bracket or tray adjustments depending on battery size and servo choice.
Rubber touring tyres tuned for your surface deliver the best grip. Softer compounds suit low-grip tracks while harder compounds last longer at permanent venues.
