Tamiya 1/10 Honda Civic SiR EG6 4WD RC Drift Car Kit – TT-02D Drift Spec

The Tamiya 1/10 Honda Civic SiR EG6 4WD Drift Spec TT-02D Assembly Kit recreates the iconic Honda Civic SiR EG6 hatchback, a sporty classic known for its bold look. Built on the beginner-friendly TT-02D chassis, this RC drift car comes with drift tires and a Sport Tuned motor for smooth sliding. It’s a great choice for hobbyists who love building and drifting scale RC cars.

Performance

The TT-02D chassis uses a 4WD system with a Sport Tuned 540 brushed motor and Hobbywing THW-1060 ESC for speeds up to ~25 mph with a 7.2V NiMH battery (not included). The double-wishbone suspension and CVA shocks ensure smooth drifting on pavement, while 24mm drift tires on matte metal-plated wheels grip for controlled slides. Some users find the tires tricky to mount without soaking them in warm water first. The 4WD setup may feel less authentic for competitive drifting, where 2WD is preferred, but it’s great for beginners.

Design and Features

The clear polycarbonate body captures the Civic’s vibrant shape, with separate side mirrors and a carbon-pattern hood decal for a realistic look. You’ll need to paint it with polycarbonate paint (not included) for a custom finish. No LED lights are included, but aftermarket kits can add them. The body may need careful trimming to avoid cracks, and the plastic chassis benefits from bearing upgrades for smoother performance. The kit supports tweaks like adjustable camber for drifting style.

Ease of Use and Maintenance

Assembly takes 4–6 hours with a clear manual, perfect for hobbyists with some experience. You’ll need a 2.4GHz radio, receiver, servo, 7.2V NiMH or 2S LiPo battery, charger, and paint (not included). Runtimes are 15–25 minutes, with charging in 3–4 hours. Maintenance is easy, but small screws may wear out. The chassis is simple to tweak for personalized drifting.

Special Notes: This is an Assembly Kit, requiring user assembly, painting, and additional components (2.4GHz radio, receiver, servo, ESC, battery, charger, paint, tools, not included). Suitable for ages 14+ with upgrade options.
