The Tamiya JR Great Emperor Premium Mini 4WD revives the 1991 original with modern engineering choices on the Super-II chassis. Released as part of the 30th anniversary celebrations, this kit blends retro looks with improved parts for reliable track performance.
The Great Emperor features a clean, race-inspired silhouette finished in white. Removable front and rear wings let you tune the car's airflow profile to suit different cornering styles and track layouts.
The Super-II chassis is molded from durable ABS in a dark gray shade, engineered for torsional stiffness and predictable handling at speed. Bright red ABS A parts provide contrast while helping reinforce critical mounting points.
The kit ships with a Type 130 motor and a 3.5:1 gear ratio, a solid baseline for both straight-line speed and acceleration. Builders often swap higher torque or higher RPM motors, try alternate gear sets, and test different tyres to match their local track conditions.
Snap-fit construction makes the Great Emperor approachable for newcomers, while the small-diameter gold 3-spoke wheels and grooved black tyres offer dependable grip on standard Mini 4WD circuits.
The Tamiya JR Great Emperor Premium gives collectors and racers a tidy mix of period styling and modern chassis stability, making it a straightforward platform for learning setup and upgrades.
