The Tamiya TA03, was, to qoute a magazine, Tamiya's answer to today's crop of high tech sedans, and it is a job that Tamiya have done quite well.
This following setup was provided by Victor Lapy, (thanks!), and as such, feel free to try it. If possible, I'd appreciate some feedback on how effective the setup is, as I myself do not run a TA03.
| Chassis | FRP chassis, Mid-motor configuration |
| Motor | Dirtinator 9-turn Quint |
| Gear Ratio | 20 tooth/stock spur |
| Front Tires | HPI Standard Width Belted X-pattern Radials |
| Rear Tires | HPI Low Profile Standard Width Super Radials |
| Front Springs | Tamiya Blue Springs |
| Rear Springs | Tamiya Red Springs |
| Ride Height (F/R) | Driveshafts slightly above level/ Driveshafts level |
| Shock oil (F/R) | 80 wt/80 wt |
| Camber Angle | 2 degrees negative (stock upper link) |
| Toe Angle | 1 1/2 degrees toe-out (approx) |
| Miscellaneous | HPI Super Shocks, no sway bars, HPI Porsche body |
Victor has this to say about the car's current setup:
The car handles very good like this. It turns corners just as fast as the
RS4 Pro's. When turning on high bite tracks, you may notice screeching on
and off, like as if the back was bouncing up and down or something. The car is stable and fast. You can swing the chassis around or just drive it
smooth. Chassis lean is minimal. My friend has 20 wt. with sway bars,
but the car leans too much.
Please email me if you have any suggestions, questions, hate mail etc.
