Tamiya 58488 TA06 Sumo Power GT Nissan GT-R 1/10 Replica  [58488]

Sumo Power GT Nissan GT-R in a Detailed 1/10 Replica

RC builders who enjoy authentic race replicas will appreciate the Tamiya 58488 Sumo Power GT Nissan GT-R. This 1/10 scale kit recreates the Sumo Power GT Nissan GT-R from the 2010 FIA GT1 series and mounts on the adaptable TA06 chassis for solid on-track performance.

Chassis engineering and handling notes

The TA06 chassis gives a balanced platform with room for tuning. The layout uses a 4WD system driven by twin belts for smooth torque delivery, and the mid-rear motor stance enhances rear traction. Independent double wishbones and CVA oil dampers provide controlled responses through corners.

Durability and tuning features

The Tamiya 58488 comes with full ball bearings to reduce mechanical losses and threaded turnbuckles to dial in suspension geometry. The battery bay accepts NiCd, NiMh, LiFe, and LiPo formats to suit different power preferences. The supplied medium-narrow slick tyres and 18-spoke wheels match the GT-1 look while being race-ready.

Scale looks and body compatibility

The polycarbonate GT-1 Spec Nissan GT-R body includes separate mirrors and a rear wing for realistic presentation. It is compatible with many TA05 and TA06 body options, allowing you to swap shells or fit aftermarket aero parts to suit track needs or display purposes.

Whether you plan to display or tune for club racing, the Tamiya 58488 Sumo Power GT Nissan GT-R pairs realistic visuals with a tunable TA06 chassis.
