Compact Rally Performer in 1/10 Scale

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII hit the scene in 2001 and quickly made its mark with a 280hp turbocharged engine and an electronically managed 4WD system. Its rally reputation and appearances in driving games helped cement the Evo VII as a popular platform among tuning fans.

What the TT-01E Chassis Delivers

The TT-01E provides a strong, user friendly base for on-road driving. Featuring a shaft driven 4WD drivetrain, this chassis balances traction and simplicity. Independent double wishbone suspension with oil filled damper units helps smooth out handling and keeps the car predictable across different road surfaces.

Finish the Body and Add Electronics

The kit includes a clear polycarbonate body that is ready to be trimmed and painted with polycarbonate paints to achieve authentic or custom colour schemes. Builders should provide a 7.2V battery and charger, radio gear, a servo and a receiver to complete the model and get it running.

This Tamiya Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII on the TT-01E chassis is ideal for hobbyists who value a solid on-road platform and enjoy customizing paint and electronics to suit their driving style.

Can I use LiPo battery packs with this chassis?

The kit is set up for standard 7.2V packs, so using LiPo requires confirming battery size, voltage and fitting plus a compatible ESC and safety precautions.

Are replacement body shells available?

Replacement polycarbonate bodies are commonly available from hobby suppliers, allowing you to replace or swap liveries without buying a whole kit again.

What tyres suit this kit for street use?

Low profile on-road tyres with a grippy compound are a good match for the TT-01E when running on sealed surfaces to get the best traction and steering response.

Is the drivetrain durable for regular use?

The shaft driven 4WD design is robust for typical hobby use, but regular maintenance like checking driveshafts and diff condition will extend service life.

Do I need special tools to build it?

Basic hobby tools such as nippers, a hobby knife, screwdrivers and small pliers will handle most of the build. A starter set of RC tools makes the process smoother.
