Tamiya 22098 Super Stock Motor VZ 23T 23T 1/10 Touring Edition  [22098]

Product summary and typical use

This Super Stock 23-turn brushed motor is designed for 1/10 scale touring and stock on-road cars. It functions as a direct-replacement unit for stock racing classes and as a baseline for chassis setup and tuning work. The VZ designation identifies its series within the class and does not indicate aftermarket modification.

Fitment guidance and installation

• Compatibility: Fits standard 1/10 touring motor mounts and common motor plates used across on-road chassis designs.
• Mounting: Fasten with the chassis motor screws, set pinion to spur gear mesh with minimal clearance, and recheck mesh after the initial bedding runs.
• Connections: Use standard soldered or crimped motor leads; ensure firm electrical connections to the ESC or connector harness and tidy wiring to prevent chafing.
• Running-in: Perform a cautious run-in at light load to seat brushes, avoiding heavy throttle until the motor reaches stable running condition.

Setup pointers and tuning notes

• Match stock-class gearing and tyres that comply with race regulations to keep throttle response predictable.
• Monitor motor temperature while making setup changes; steady moderate heat is normal, but excessive heat signals mesh, binding, or gearing issues.
• Alter pinion size only within class limits and trial small increments on the track to evaluate acceleration and top speed changes.
• Include commutator and brush inspections in regular servicing to preserve smooth throttle operation.
