Tracing the Legacy of the ARTA NSX

Formed in 1997, the Autobacs Racing Team Aguri combined the expertise of Autobacs and former F1 driver Aguri Suzuki.

This model captures the essence of that successful season, allowing hobbyists to relive the excitement of the track.

The inclusion of a Type 540 motor, F/R ball differentials, and CVA dampers ensures that this kit is ready for competitive racing right out of the box.
