It would definitely be nice if Tamiya did like others with the numbering of the bags and one bag for each step.
However, after building many TRF (TC) cars over the last few years I would recommend that you do this:
If you check the last few pages of the manual where all parts are pictured they have codes like; BJ1, BJ2, BJ3... These codes are also used in the building steps as I'm sure you have noticed.
The parts are bagged by these codes; i.e. all BJ# parts in one bag. You can either mark the bags with these codes (compare the content to the pics at the end of the manual to mark them right) or empty each bag into a separate container, or just a separate pile, and mark these with the codes.
Maybe this is all obvious, I dunno, I have found it helps buiding Tamiya kits this way though...
