Overview of the Neo-VQS VZ-Chassis
The Tamiya Neo-VQS 18094 pairs a compact buggy silhouette with the VZ-Chassis platform, giving Mini 4WD fans a durable, race-ready model. It balances build-quality and visual detail, making it suitable for both competitive racing and display shelves.
Shell and styling notes
The body adopts a rally-buggy motif with sharp lines and aerodynamic touches. Molded in black ABS for toughness, the shell is finished with metallic sticker accents to enhance realism and give the model a race-oriented look.
VZ-Chassis construction
The VZ-Chassis acts as a lightweight but sturdy base, engineered for controlled flex and impact resistance. Reinforced bumper and rear stay mounts add strength, while the screw-attached rear roller stay and front bumper accept FRP or carbon stays for custom setups.
Options for race tuning
This kit supports common performance upgrades: motor swaps, tyre choices and gear tuning. It ships with a Type 130 motor and a 3.5:1 gear ratio, plus low-profile tyres on red 5-spoke wheels. Low-friction POM 620 plastic bearings help reduce drivetrain losses.
Build process and track compatibility
The Neo-VQS kit uses snap-fit elements to simplify assembly and is compatible with typical Mini 4WD circuits. Builders can tailor the setup to suit different track layouts and racing styles, and the metallic stickers let you personalise the finished machine.
