Tamiya 22096 GT-Tuned Motor II 25T for 1/10 RC car powertrains  [22096]

Compact motor choice for 1/10 electric RC cars

The Tamiya 22096 GT-Tuned Motor II (25T) is presented as an RC-scale electric motor option intended for use in 1/10-size radio-controlled cars and similar touring chassis. Its 25T tooth count is a clear identification point for matching pinion and spur gear ratios during setup. This article focuses on practical fitment, installation checkpoints, and setup tips relevant to hobbyists upgrading or maintaining a model car powertrain.

Before installing, verify motor mount alignment and confirm pinion-to-spur mesh is correct to avoid premature wear. Use the stock motor mount pattern typical to many 1/10 chassis and ensure the motor’s shaft interfaces with your existing pinion gear; replace the pinion if tooth count or spline differs.

• Compatibility: 1/10-scale electric RC cars and compatible touring chassis
• Use case: replacement or tuning swap for drivetrain gearing adjustments
• Installation note: check gear mesh, secure set-screws, and confirm ESC/battery compatibility
• Maintenance tip: inspect pinion teeth and commutator area (if applicable) after break-in runs

For players adjusting gear ratios or replacing a motor in a 1/10 touring setup, this unit provides a clear 25T designation for straightforward gearing decisions and routine maintenance access.
