The Volkswagen Golf GTI Cup is a focused one-make race series run by Volkswagen Group Japan, where modified GTIs compete across a set of circuit rounds. Cars carry race staples like roll cages, 4-point harnesses and DSG gearboxes, and the series is known for close racing and eye-catching liveries.
The TT-01E chassis used for the 58410 features improved parts made from fiberglass-reinforced resin for added toughness. Key components are produced as separate mouldings to make maintenance and part replacement simpler for hobbyists.
Steering has been refined with a new linkage using TA05 type steering posts for firmer steering feedback. A reworked upper deck strengthens the chassis and a dedicated spot for a transponder is included to support timed sessions.
The body is vacuum-formed in polycarbonate to match the GTI profile while keeping weight low. Silver 10-spoke wheels and an accurate decal set allow authentic replication of race liveries. The kit also includes an ESC (TEU-101BK), a Type 540 motor, and front and rear LED fittings to boost realism.
This Tamiya 58410 kit is a practical choice for those who want a reliable base for club-level racing and customization options for handling and speed.
