Retro Roots With Contemporary Race Hardware

Kyosho's Ultima returns in the Kyosho 30625 package, blending an established silhouette with parts aimed at today's tracks. The model that made waves in the late '80s has been reworked to meet modern durability and tuning expectations without losing its classic look.

Stiff Aluminium Monocoque Meets Lightweight Design

The 1/10 Ultima EP 2WD retains the original monocoque approach but now uses aircraft-grade A6061T6 aluminium for increased stiffness. That platform helps keep weight low while improving predictability through corners.

Tunable Suspension and Reinforced Steering Hardware

A double wishbone suspension layout with high-capacity oil shocks and a strong shock tower allows focused tuning for different surfaces. Steering upgrades include an aluminium link and metal bushings for precise input translation at speed.

Protected Drivetrain and Finer Gear Ratios

To handle modern power, Kyosho fitted a slipper clutch and switched to a 48-pitch gear module to reduce loss and improve gearbox longevity. A motor guard is included to help prevent damage from debris and impacts.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/10
  • Drivetrain: 2WD
  • Length: 370mm
  • Width: 244mm
  • Height: 106mm
  • Wheelbase: 260-263mm

  • Motor: 540 class size

With its period aesthetics and practical enhancements, the Ultima EP 2WD is a flexible platform for club racing, weekend bashing and period-correct builds.

The aluminium plate raises torsional stiffness, delivering more consistent steering and predictable corner entry, especially on higher grip surfaces.
There are aftermarket options for uprated shocks, aluminium hubs and reinforced suspension parts to increase durability and fine-tune handling.
Softer compound tyres with taller sidewalls and a pattern that resists squirm will help stabilize landings and absorb impacts.
Yes, with proper electronics and setup tuning the Ultima can be run competitively at club level and in vintage classes.
The gearbox supports a range of pinion sizes typical for 540 motors, but verify mesh and cooling when increasing pinion tooth count.
