Tamiya 58480 1/10 RC Honda Civic Type-R R3 TT01E JAS Motorsport Kit - Street to Circuit Model  [58480]

Race-Inspired Honda Civic Type-R R3 in Scale

The Tamiya Honda Civic Type-R R3 faithfully translates the J.A.S. Motorsport competition car into a 1/10 scale kit. It captures the sporting lines and race-focused cues of the full-size Type-R R3 while remaining practical for hobbyist builds and track use.

Overview of the TT-01 Type-E Chassis Dynamics

The TT-01 Type-E chassis emphasises stability with a low-mounted motor and battery layout that lowers the centre of gravity. This helps the model carry speed through corners. Structural reinforcement comes from the fiberglass-reinforced nylon upper deck and gear covers, and the 3-piece tie rod contributes to steady steering action.

Authentic Trim and Illumination

Model detailing includes the distinctive roof intake, mirrors and rear spoiler, all reproduced to scale. Metal-plated lamp housings for front and rear LEDs supply authentic lighting, and the decal set recreates the bold red and dark grey race scheme together with Type-R badges.

With strong scale fidelity and a balanced TT-01 platform, this Civic Type-R R3 kit suits modders and collectors who want realistic looks with dependable handling.
