Build a faithful 1/10 scale version of the Subaru Impreza WRC 2008 with this Tamiya kit. The model reflects key moments from the 2008 WRC season and delivers an authentic rally modelling experience for enthusiasts who enjoy hands-on setup.
The DF-03Ra chassis uses a shaft-driven 4WD arrangement and a longitudinal motor to help balance handling. Ball differentials at both ends and full ball bearings reduce drivetrain friction and improve longevity under rally use.
Designed to cope with rough terrain, the front and rear use CVA Damper Super Mini shocks to control rebound and compression. The system provides good stroke length and the rear arm adjustability supports short wheelbase setups when required.
The kit includes threaded upper arms for camber tuning and provides three selectable gear ratios: 8.22:1, 7.90:1, and 7.45:1. Two spur gears (78T, 75T) and two pinions (29T, 32T) are supplied so you can dial in your preferred acceleration or top speed balance.
The Tamiya 58430 Subaru Impreza WRC 2008 is a solid kit for modellers who want a realistic rally build with room for setup changes. It works well as an entry rally car or as a base for more focused upgrades.
