The RX-7s reputation for a compact, lightweight chassis and rotary power is faithfully echoed in Tamiya's 1/10 rendition on the M-06 platform. The Tamiya 58493 kit brings an authentic silhouette together with a chassis built for tunable handling.
The rear-wheel-drive M-06 chassis provides a driving balance close to the original car. Its 235mm wheelbase gives a steady footprint while the double wishbone suspension supports accurate steering inputs and cornering stability.
The polycarbonate body captures the RX-7s curves and creases with good fidelity, backed by a complete decal set for finishing touches. Early production units include matt gold-plated wheels for a distinctive factory look.
Included plastic bushings can be replaced with ball bearings to cut drivetrain losses, a common upgrade for faster lap times. The battery tray fits NiCd, NiMH, LiPo and LiFe cells so you can match weight and power to your setup.
Whether for club racing or a detailed display piece, the Tamiya 58493 1/10 Mazda RX-7 on the M-06 chassis blends authentic looks with chassis tweaks that suit hands-on hobbyists.
