A closer look at the Tamiya 18055 JR Super Avante on VS chassis

The Tamiya 18055 - 1/32 JR Super Avante combines a slim, aerodynamic body with the adaptable VS chassis platform. That chassis is valued for its light weight and predictable handling, making it useful for experimenting with setup changes. The kit comes with a motor fitted, while two R6/AA/UM3 batteries are required but sold separately. Its small footprint works well for modding, painting and preparing a car for club track runs or display.

Scale: 1/32
Chassis: VS Type
Motor: Included
Batteries: 2 x R6/AA/UM3 (not included)

What track surfaces suit this Mini 4WD?

The VS chassis performs well on smooth plastic track and indoor carpet. For rougher surfaces try fitting slightly wider tyres and check roller clearance to avoid snags.

Any tips for painting the body shell?

Wash the shell before spraying, use thin coats and allow full curing between layers. Mask carefully around windows and decals to retain crisp lines.

Can I fit stronger motors or gears?

The kit includes a motor, but many builders swap to compatible higher speed gears or performance motors. Check space and gearing limits on the VS chassis before upgrading.

Where can I get spare parts?

Spare Tamiya parts like wheels, gears and rollers are widely available from hobby shops and online retailers. Keep a small stock of common wear parts for quick repairs.
