Identifying Tamiya Parts

bullet

You will need the build manual supplied with your kit (or for some hop-up options, the hop up panel on the side of the box).  Alternatively use the link on the menu page to access Tamiya's resources of manuals and exploded diagrams with part numbers.
 

bullet

Don't have the build manual? Follow our MANUALS link at the top of this page.  This will take you to Tamiya's site where you can download a parts page for your car.
 

bullet

If possible, work out what your car's number is - example, 58347 is the popular Lunch Box kit.
 

bullet

Identify by studying the manual, which part you require.  
 

bullet

Identify which parts also come with the part you require. Most parts are supplied either in a bag or on a sprue - this will be identified on the last few pages of the build manual. Typically, these are identified by letters - e.g. "A Parts" or "Gear Bag A"
 

bullet

Find the part listed on the back page (or inside back cover) of the manual.
 

bullet

If the item is a spare part, it will be listed with a description and a seven digit part number - sometimes, where a part is available individually (e.g. snap pins or a drive shaft) the seven digit number will be listed by the part itself.  Where parts are only available as a part bag (e.g. "C Parts" etc) the seven digit number will be shown clearly near the parts listing.  All hop up parts, and some common spares, have a five digit number.
 

bullet

Note the part number(s) you need and look them up on the site.
 

bullet

If you need parts for non-radio controlled Tamiya plastic kits, these are not listed online. Please email us for assistance using the link on the menu page. 

Please note that some time after production finishes, Tamiya do discontinue parts for older models.   We regret that in general we are unable to supply parts for older cars which are not listed on this site.  Parts which come from current cars but are unlisted are of restricted availability, but can normally be ordered - follow the UNLISTED PARTS link at the top of the page.

This is the original web site to list every part which Tamiya currently make available as spares in the UK.  Others may copy, but we're determined to make TamiyaParts the safest and easiest to use site of it's type!

Please order online - we will call you back to confirm your order and take card details if you do not give them at time of order. 

* All enquiries relating to Tamiya Parts must be emailed to us using the link at the top of the menu page.  Staff instore do not have instant answers to Tamiya enquiries, but if you email we can research your query and get back to you!
