TA05IFS-R Chassis Brief for On-Road Builders

The Tamiya 49491 TA05IFS-R Chassis Kit offers a robust foundation for on-road setups, combining the TA05-IFS base with parts that improve adjustability. It is aimed at builders who want to refine steering and balance for track sessions.

Benefits of the Inboard Front Layout

With horizontally mounted oil dampers tucked inboard, the front layout allows a lower nose profile and cleaner airflow. That design also sharpens steering precision so drivers notice small changes in setup more readily.

Upgrade Path and Suspension Adjustments

The kit comes with reversible suspension options front and rear to suit different track demands. Included option components like the ball differential pulley, center pulley and carbon-reinforced parts let you increase drivetrain efficiency and chassis stiffness where needed.

The Tamiya 49491 TA05IFS-R is a sensible choice for racers and hobbyists seeking a tunable on-road platform. Its suspension concept and optional parts support focused upgrades and track tuning.

Can I use standard touring car bodies with this chassis?

Yes, low nose touring car bodies are compatible and the inboard front setup supports slim front profiles common in competitive bodies.

What tyre choices work best on asphalt?

Medium to hard compound slicks are a good starting point on asphalt; adjust compounds and insert foam to match grip levels and handling balance.

Does the kit include a differential?

The kit provides option parts for the drivetrain such as a ball differential pulley, but the final differential assembly and setup depend on your chosen components and gear choices.

How important is damper oil selection here?

Damper oil viscosity directly affects body roll and turn-in; experiment with different weights to tune responsiveness and mid-corner stability.
