The Tamiya 58614-60A Suzuki Jimny JB23 faithfully represents the compact, rugged design of the JB23 generation, providing a convincing scale silhouette and authentic surface details for modellers and display collectors.
The MF-01X chassis is engineered for adaptability and serviceability, with a modular monocoque that supports multiple wheelbase positions. Choosing the 225mm middle wheelbase gives a balanced steering response and stability for varied driving conditions.
With a rear-mounted 540-brushed motor and a propeller shaft to the front, the 4WD layout maintains traction in slippery sections. The independent double wishbone suspension paired with rally block tyres helps the model perform on loose or uneven surfaces, and the kit leaves ESC selection to the builder.
Follow the step sequence for clean assembly and consider bearing upgrades and improved dampers for sharper handling. Adjusting gear ratios and ride height will let you tune the Jimny for either precise cornering or steadier trail running, and painting the body adds a personal finish.
Whether displayed or driven, the Tamiya Suzuki Jimny JB23 is a compact, tuneable model that suits scale enthusiasts and hobby tuners alike.
