In 1992 Nissan won the 24 Hours of Daytona with the R91CP driven by Japanese drivers (Kazuyoshi Hoshino, Toshio Suzuki and Masahiro Hasemi). It would be the first time that a Japanese car company won this historic endurance race. Tamiya has recreated this iconic race car on a 1/10 scale chassis using a detailed polycarbonate body with a driver cockpit interior. The highly detailed body is mounted on a direct drive platform employing foam tires for superior traction on smooth driving surfaces.

This kit was originally released in 1992 then released again in 2012.

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 driving experience. 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 single CVA oil damper; teamed up with sponge tires front and rear, they ensure superb traction on smooth asphalt and carpeted surfaces. Additionally, use of spacers allows two different front and three rear ground clearance setups.
