Tamiya 58555 1/12 Mazda 787B Precision Race Kit  [58555]

Compact Le Mans Replica: Tamiya 58555 Mazda 787B

The Tamiya 58555 captures the spirit of the 1991 Mazda 787B in a 1/12 scale RC kit. Built on the RM-01 chassis, this model pairs classic prototype styling with practical race geometry, featuring a Direct Drive 2WD arrangement and the Pivot Ball Link Rear (PBLR) suspension for dependable road manners.

RM-01 Chassis and Drive Characteristics

The RM-01 platform focuses on on-road performance with a straightforward Direct Drive 2WD setup that yields consistent acceleration. The PBLR suspension helps the car stay planted through corners, making it suitable for club racing and track practice.

Authentic Bodywork and Finish Options

The clear polycarbonate shell mirrors the 787B's profile and is ready for custom painting. Details are faithfully modelled so you can reproduce period liveries or create a fresh scheme, while foam tyres and a solid axle drivetrain give class-appropriate traction.

Build Flexibility and Upgrades

This kit invites hands-on setup work. You will need to source radio gear, a servo, a receiver, and a 3.2V battery. Adjustable ride height and gearing let you dial in handling for different surfaces and driver preference.

Whether you collect historic racers or enjoy precision on-road driving, the Tamiya 58555 Mazda 787B balances display accuracy with real-world RC handling and tuning potential.
