Classic E30 Touring Car Converted For Drift

Tamiya 58451 captures the spirit of the BMW M3 E30 Sport Evo in a 1/10 scale kit built on the TT-01D Type-E chassis, designed with drifting in mind. The package mixes period-correct styling with driftable mechanics so drivers can focus on line and throttle control.

Chassis Build And Drift Performance

The TT-01D Type-E chassis is set up to be approachable yet tunable, suitable for entry level builders and more technical racers. Its 4WD shaft drive helps with throttle modulation during slides and provides a stable platform for controlled drifting. The bathtub chassis offers impact protection for electronics.

Key drift elements include a sport-tuned RS-540 motor, an aluminium heat sink, and adjustable suspension parts to dial in handling. The BBS silver wheels and Super Driftech tyres give the model a realistic stance along with durable drift grip.

Upgrade Routes And Custom Fitment

There are numerous upgrade options to refine handling or add realism. Fit the LED Light Control Unit TLU-02 for live lights, switch to reinforced servo savers, or add carbon damper stays to tighten handling. The TT-01D chassis is well supported by aftermarket components.
