Tamiya 18101 - Super Avante Jr. VZ Mini 4WD Kit - Track Tuner Edition  [18101]

Overview of the Tamiya Super Avante Jr. VZ

The Tamiya Super Avante Jr. brings racing form to a compact Mini 4WD format, designed by Kota Nezu to echo the performance styling of the R/C Super Avante. Its smaller front fenders are aimed at improving airflow for sharper straight-line speed.

Detailed shell and service access

Finished in blue ABS resin, the body mounts to a black VZ chassis and includes a detachable canopy plus a separate rear wing. The front inboard suspension panel is removable to simplify maintenance and part swaps.

VZ chassis - efficient and reinforced

The VZ chassis focuses on a lightweight footprint with reinforcements at stress points such as the bumper and rear stay base. Low-friction 620 plastic bearings reduce loss in the drive train, and the kit uses a 3.5:1 gearing for dependable performance.

Performance upgrades and tuning paths

The Super Avante Jr. is compatible with many Grade-Up Parts to refine speed and handling. Common changes include motor swaps, tyre selection, and gear ratio tweaks to suit different track profiles.

The Tamiya Super Avante Jr. (VZ) offers a tidy balance of aerodynamic design and a tuneable chassis, suited to hobbyists who want to develop a race-ready Mini 4WD.
