Overview of the TA03R-S TRF Special Chassis

For committed RC racers, the Tamiya 58243 - 1/10 TA03R-S TRF Special Chassis Kit delivers a purpose-built platform for competitive setup work. Its midship motor placement sharpens balance and the TRF parts list supports focused performance upgrades.

Stiff, Light Double-Deck Carbon Layout

The TA03R-S TRF uses a 2.5mm carbon main deck with a 2mm upper deck and perforated panels to keep weight down while retaining strength. The belt-driven 4WD system and double wishbone suspension give consistent, controllable handling for both practice and race days.

Low-Friction Components and Adjustable Geometry

Full ball bearings and Super Low Friction Dampers are included to reduce losses and improve suspension response. Universal drive shafts plus coloured aluminium option parts add durability without excess mass. Adjustable toe and suspension settings let drivers fine tune handling to suit grip levels.

Compatibility with Touring Bodies and Electronics

The chassis works with common 1/10 touring bodies like the Taisan Starcard Porsche 911GT2 or Porsche 911GT1, allowing custom paint and aero choices. Electronics such as RS540 motors and compatible ESCs can be selected to match gearing and driving style.
