Details for the Tamiya 18062 - 1/32 JR Vanquish RS

The Tamiya 18062 JR Vanquish RS is a Mini 4WD model that blends display-grade styling with a chassis built for tuning. It features a black ABS body mounted on the VS chassis, a compact platform that many hobbyists favour for modification. The kit is completed with large metal-plated wheels and red slick tyres that present well on display and offer reliable grip on standard race tracks.

Chassis Features

The red VS chassis is manufactured from ABS to give a resilient but light foundation, encouraging quick handling and straightforward upgrades. Its compact design aids responsiveness, and the inclusion of 14mm rubber ring rollers on the front stay helps reduce deflection at speed.

Motor and Powertrain

Fitted with a Type 130 motor and a 4.2:1 gear ratio, the Vanquish RS provides steady drive suitable for local track conditions. It runs off two AA batteries (not included) and will accept typical Mini 4WD performance parts for those aiming to refine acceleration or handling.

The VS chassis offers clear upgrade points for motors, rollers and weight adjustments, so tuning will noticeably affect handling and speed. Small changes to tyre choice and roller setup often yield the best balance improvements.
Absolutely. The black ABS body and metal-plated wheels give it an attractive finish that looks good on display, while remaining a practical platform for occasional track use.
Check tyre condition, secure wheel fittings and verify the battery fit. Also confirm the roller alignment and that the motor is seated correctly to avoid power loss during a run.
