Period-Correct Rally Model with Practical Chassis

The Tamiya 57704 - 1/10 XB Subaru Impreza WRC '99 recreates the classic rally silhouette while providing a realistic and serviceable RC platform. The TL-01 chassis delivers a tried-and-tested layout that supports both tidy looks and reliable driving characteristics. Full-time 4WD combined with sealed diffs ensures steady traction for weekend runs or display use.

Design Strengths of the TL-01

The monocoque TL-01 frame is engineered for a balance of lightness and durability, aiding handling precision. Its double wishbone suspension and four friction dampers smooth rough sections and help retain stability across mixed surfaces. The setup is well suited to standard rally-style tuning and maintenance.

Motor Setup and Radio Gear

This kit is specified with a midship Type 540 motor to provide effective power while keeping weight distribution central. The included wheel-type Adspec GP transmitter and mechanical speed control offer straightforward inputs for throttle and steering. Batteries and chargers are not included so you can match power components to your preferences.

  • Chassis: TL-01

The Tamiya 57704 - 1/10 XB Subaru Impreza WRC '99 suits hobbyists who want a faithful rally replica that is also ready for sensible performance upgrades and regular club running.

Basic modelling tools and a set of hex drivers will cover most of the build; no specialised workshop equipment is required for the standard assembly.
Pick tyres matched to the surface - softer, grippier compounds for loose or wet conditions and harder compounds for tarmac and dry gravel.
The kit typically includes an unpainted body that you can customise, allowing period-correct liveries or personal paint schemes.
Sealed gearboxes reduce maintenance frequency, but periodic inspection and occasional lubrication will extend gear life and performance.
