Kyosho FANTOM PZF T-33 - The Legendary 1/12 Works-Spec Hybrid Racer
Kyosho Vintage Series No.19. First-Ever Official Kit Release. Chain-Driven 4WD & 3P Suspension.
After more than 30 years of waiting, the legendary hybrid machine that dominated the 1980s racing scene finally arrives as an official, production-ready kit! The Kyosho FANTOM PZF T-33 1/12 Scale Electric 4WD Racing Car Kit brings back the famous "Plazma Phantom" conversion piloted by Kyosho’s works drivers. By combining the hyper-agile 3-point (3P) rear suspension of the Plazma series with the unstoppable traction of the Phantom’s ladder-chain 4WD drivetrain, this kit delivers pure vintage racing pedigree enhanced with modern, high-grade material refinements.
Premium Carbon Engineering & Modern Refinements
Unlike the DIY conversions of the '80s built from individual spare parts, the FANTOM PZF T-33 is engineered as a highly optimized, cost-efficient full chassis kit. It features a newly developed, high-rigidity carbon fiber main chassis and matching upper deck plate, paired with a specialized FRP rear A-bar designed with mathematically perfect flex to maximize rear tire bite. Upfront, adjustable 1.5mm ride height spacers and a highly responsive kingpin coil-type independent suspension absorb track imperfections seamlessly. To save you tedious prep time, the high-grip sponge racing tires come factory pre-mounted and precision-trued on retro-styled black racing wheels.
Aerodynamic T-33 Clear Body
Includes a faithful reproduction of the ultra-sleek, quick-handling T-33 body shell. Renowned for its aggressive turn-in characteristics, this unpainted body is fully backwards compatible with older Phantom and Plazma chassis.
Dial-Adjustable Oil Shock
Features a premium, fluid-damped center oil shock with a threaded aluminum body. Allows micro-fine dial adjustments to chassis spring tension, enabling rapid tuning based on track grip conditions.
