Classic Mini 4WD buggy kit - Tamiya 18014 1/32 JR Avante Mini 4WD Kit  [18014]

About the Tamiya JR Avante CK814

The Tamiya JR Avante CK814 brings a nostalgic buggy aesthetic into the Mini 4WD class, combining an iconic silhouette with a chassis designed for reliable on-track behaviour.

Body profile and handling role

The vehicle sports a body inspired by vintage off-road buggies, with pronounced lines that contribute to stability and aid airflow management during high speed sections.

Type 2 chassis characteristics

Using the Type 2 chassis, the JR Avante gives a consistent base for handling and upgrades. The chassis supports widely used gear ratios like 5:1 and 4.2:1 so you can favour rapid acceleration or greater top speed depending on race conditions.

Common performance upgrades

Racers often fit higher rpm motors, upgrade to precision gears and try different tyre compounds to fine tune lap times. The JR Avante responds predictably to these standard Mini 4WD modifications.

Build simplicity and event use

Snap-fit construction keeps the kit approachable for less experienced builders, while leaving scope for serious tuning. The car is compatible with standard Tamiya circuits for practice and competition.

With its classic styling and tuneable Type 2 chassis, the Tamiya JR Avante CK814 is a well rounded Mini 4WD kit for both display and competitive use.
