Tamiya Nissan R91CP Group-C On-road Race Car

Just announced at the Shizuoka Hobby Show 2026 is the return of the iconic and incredible-looking Tamiya Nissan R91CP Group-C on-road race car. We added this one to our “gotta-get” list!

OVERVIEW

The re-issue of 1/10-scale Nissan R91CP which was sold as item 58109 in 1992 and item 84264 in 2012. The full-size Nissan R91CP featured a low-profile aerodynamic body and a 3,500cc V8 twin turbo engine. This car achieved victory with three Japanese drivers (Kazuyoshi Hoshino, Toshio Suzuki and Masahiro Hasemi) at the 24 Hours of Daytona, the first time for a Japanese car.

ABOUT THE DIRECT-DRIVE 2WD CHASSIS

Based around an ABS plastic bathtub, with space frames front and rear and FRP plates, the chassis is a composite design that offers a rigid base to back up the fluid suspension: the result is a crisp, responsive drive. At the front, it has an independent coil-sprung king pin suspension setup, while the rear rigid suspension is a 3-point design with a 1.5mm thickness FRP T-bar and CVA oil damper. Ground clearance is adjustable (front: 2 settings, rear: 3 settings) according to running surface.
