Faithful Replica of a Super GT Contender

The Tamiya 58425 ORC Amemiya SGC-7 TB-03 reproduces the iconic race car seen in the 2008 Super GT season, complete with its eye-catching silver paint theme. This kit is aimed at enthusiasts who want a race-accurate shell combined with a tuneable competition chassis.

Track-Ready TB-03 Handling

The TB-03 chassis offers a well-balanced platform that adapts to setup changes, while the Type 540 motor supplies steady power suitable for competitive club racing. The polycarbonate body provides a strong, lightweight shell and the black H Parts made from ABS resin enhance the model's period-correct visuals.

Upgrade Paths and Tyre Choices

Owners can pursue a variety of Grade-Up parts to push performance or alter handling characteristics for different circuits. The included Medium Narrow Racing Slick tyres paired with Medium-Narrow 12-Spoke Wheels give a neutral starting point for further tuning.

The Tamiya 58425 ORC Amemiya SGC-7 TB-03 suits model racers who prioritize authentic styling and a chassis that responds well to setup and upgrades.

Do I need special tools to build this kit?

Standard RC modelling tools like side cutters, a hobby knife, small screwdrivers, and a trimming stand are sufficient; a wheel balancer or tyre glue may help for performance tuning.

How should I set up the TB-03 for stability?

Start with neutral toe and mild camber, adjust spring rates and ride height incrementally, and use the tyre compound to fine tune corner grip versus steering response.

Can the stock motor be swapped for brushless?

Yes, many builders replace the Type 540 with a compact brushless setup for higher efficiency and power, but ensure ESC, gearing, and battery are matched to the new motor.

What paint should be used on the polycarbonate body?

Use polycarbonate-specific spray paints or lacquers designed for lexan shells, apply thin coats, and mask details to preserve crisp lines.

How do I store the model between events?

Clean tyres and chassis, remove batteries for storage, and keep the body away from direct sunlight to avoid warping or paint fading.
