On track in the 1990s the Civic VTi stood out for agile cornering and the lively 1.6-liter VTEC. Tamiya recreates that character in this 1/10 assembly kit, complete with the Team Castrol paint style on a detailed polycarbonate shell.
The FF-03 chassis emphasises the FWD layout with a longitudinal battery compartment and a compact gearbox fitted with a ball differential to smooth out drive. Its double wishbone suspension across all four corners, paired with CVA oil dampers and an inboard front setup, gives consistent handling and room for tuning.
The Tamiya 58467 combines scale detail with useful adjustability. Dimensions are 414mm length, 185mm width and 132mm height, with a selectable wheelbase of 257mm, 245mm or 233mm. The bathtub chassis, front motor arrangement, 3-piece steering tie-rod and CVA Super Mini shocks make it straightforward to set up. A Type 540 motor is included; an ESC is required separately.
Ideal for hobbyists who enjoy tuning FWD setups, the Tamiya 58467 offers a balance of scale accuracy and adjustable mechanics for both display and spirited running.
