Classic WRC Looks with Nitro Power

The Tamiya 44019 - 1/8 Subaru Impreza WRC '99 Off-Road kit pairs period-correct styling with the TGX MK.1 chassis so you can build a nitro-driven rally machine. It is aimed at enthusiasts who enjoy setup, tuning and realistic on-track behavior.

Scale Detail That Stands Out

The molded polycarbonate body retains the lines and rally details of the original Impreza, offering a quality canvas for painting and decal work. Mounting points and body contours are designed for a neat fit over the chassis.

Robust Chassis for Off-Road Use

The TGX MK.1 provides a stable base engineered to cope with off-road routines. With a nitro engine installed, drivers can expect lively throttle response and the chance to refine handling through incremental adjustments.

Good for Display and Competition

Whether on display or on rough tracks, the kit offers a blend of show-quality appearance and practical performance that appeals to both collectors and competitive hobbyists.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/8
  • Chassis: TGX MK.1
  • Drive Type: Nitro Powered
  • Body: Detailed Polycarbonate
  • Model Type: Off-Road Touring Car

Tamiya 44019 provides a convincing blend of scale authenticity and a chassis ready for upgrades, ideal for racers who enjoy hands-on setup and regular track time.

Which tyres work best on loose surfaces?

Knobby off-road tyres or rally-spec compounds provide better traction on dirt and gravel. Try different tread patterns to match the surface and driving style.

Is assembly difficult for intermediate builders?

The kit requires mechanical skill and patience but follows clear instructions. Intermediate builders familiar with nitro setups should find the build manageable with basic workshop tools.

How do I store the car between runs?

Clean off dirt, drain fuel from the tank if long-term storage is planned, and protect the body with a soft cover. Store in a cool, dry place to avoid rubber and foam degradation.

What upgrades give the most noticeable improvement?

Upgrading tyres, shocks and tuning the carburetor tend to deliver the biggest changes in handling and engine response for the TGX MK.1 platform.

Can the kit be used for club rally events?

Yes. With appropriate setup and engine tuning, the model can be competitive in local rally or off-road club events. Check event rules for class and fuel restrictions.
