1/10 R/C Toyota Supra (JZA80) (BT-01)
Here comes another brand new chassis; the 2WD BT-01 chassis offers choices of FF/MR/FR drive system based upon the drive system of the actual car your body recreates.
Its very first body depicts the fourth generation Toyota Supra (JZA80) which was announced as a Toyota’s flagship sportscar in 1993. Its top grade RZ model employed a 3-liter inline-6 twin turbo engine capable of 280hp, 6-speed transmission, 4-wheel double wishbone suspension and ventilated disc brakes for front and rear.
The muscular form and high-spec performance mesmerized fans all over the world and achieved success in motorsports races.
The fourth generation Supra (JZA80) makes an appearance on our new 2WD chassis: the BT-01 offers a choice of front- and rear-wheel drive setups, with the latter having FR (front motor) and MR (midship-rear motor) options. It can also be set up with 251mm and 257mm wheelbases, and has unitized sections to make it easier to work on your car.
