Heritage Model Updated for Modern Tracks

The Tamiya JR Great Emperor Premium brings back the 1991 design with contemporary parts on the Super-II chassis. Launched to celebrate the Mini 4WD lineup anniversary, this kit offers a nostalgic profile with parts that support reliable track use.

Visual Style and Aerodynamics

The Great Emperor carries a streamlined white body and removable wing elements that let you tweak aerodynamic balance. Those options help tailor the car for different course types and speeds.

Super-II Chassis Construction

Made from robust ABS in dark gray, the Super-II offers good stiffness and handling predictability. The red ABS A parts not only add visual flair but also reinforce structural areas for stability.

Practical Upgrades and Setup Tips

Equipped with a Type 130 motor and 3.5:1 gear set, the kit is ready to run out of the box. Many racers upgrade motors, experiment with gear ratios, or swap tyre compounds to fine-tune performance for specific events.

Putting It Together

Snap-fit assembly keeps the build straightforward for newcomers. The supply of gold 3-spoke small wheels and grooved black tyres ensures dependable traction across typical Mini 4WD surfaces.
