Rally Heritage Recreated in 1/10 Scale

For model builders who love classic rally cars, Tamiya's Toyota Celica GT-FOUR (ST205) on the TT-02 chassis offers a true-to-era recreation. The assembly kit blends period details with a modern hobbyist-friendly platform.

Why the Celica GT-FOUR Matter to Rally Fans

The Celica GT-FOUR earned its place in rally history through a capable 4WD system featuring a center viscous coupling and a Torsen differential, combined with aerodynamic bodywork and a turbocharged 255hp engine. Limited production runs and distinctive spoilers made certain versions highly collectible.

TT-02 Chassis Traits for Everyday Use

The TT-02 provides a reliable shaft-driven 4WD layout and stable handling that suits a wide range of driving surfaces. Its straightforward construction is ideal for those who want to assemble, run, and later upgrade without complex intervention.

Scale Styling and Running Parts

The kit includes a 1.0mm polycarbonate body capturing the Celica's profile, plus 10-spoke Gun Metal wheels with racing radial tyres for an authentic stance. Stickers and window masks are supplied so you can achieve period-correct liveries.
