Mini-Z 4x4 Suzuki Jimny, APIO TS4 Khaki

Designed in collaboration with Jimny Proshop Apio, the wild ride of the Jimny has been recreated with realistic front grill, front and rear bumpers, roof rack, rear ladder, rear number plate, Yoshimura muffler, wheels, etc.

With more than 50 years as an aftermarket parts creator for the Suzuki Jimny, APIO's unique tuning parts have a cult-following for their enhanced performance and unique sense of style. In collaboration with APIO, Kyosho has recreated the special front grille / front bumper / rear bumper / roof rack / rear ladder / rear license plate / Yoshimura muffler / wheels etc., in exceptional detail. While the wild adventurism of the Jimny is captured in the MINI-Z 4x4 with a variety of colors, it provides a different driving feel to the original car for people to enjoy.

The APIO Jimny TS4 represents the culmination of Kyosho's 20 years of injection molded body expertise with the Mini-Z. Not simply a scaled down reproduction, both body and accessory parts are finished with exceptional detail that recreates not just the form, but also captures the essence of the original APIO Jimny.

Special Parts:
Tactiical Front Grill -The JB24 front grille maintains the horizontal slit design that was popular with Jimny JB23 series custom grilles. The three stepped slits project forward and feature a three-dimensional form.

Tactical Front Bumper - Sharp and square design. By using a small radius to connect surfaces on the corner cut lines, the bumper looks like it is made of steel.

Wild Boar SR-16 - Retro-designed aluminum wheels are reminiscent of the 80's ring steel wheels worn by the LJ and SJ Jimny.

Wild Boar R - Five arrow shaped spokes extend to the rim edge. The wheel diameter is made larger to enhance the sporty feeling. This crossover design shines in every driving scene.

License Plate Movement Kit
Front Runner Roof Rack - A global manufacturer of parts for off-road cars and SUVs from South Africa. Lightweight, high quality and specially designed for the Jimny.

Steel Rear Ladder - Narrow Type - The square design reproduces the robust steel ladder that matches the body shape of the Jimny JB74.

Tactical Rear Bumper & Lamp Unit - The thin design increases angle for off-road and rounds up both sides to suit large diameter tires. This transforms the rear with an intrepid sporty style without making it look heavy.

APIO x Yoshimura Totsugeki R-77J Titanium Cyclone - Muffler is reproduced in collaboration with Yoshimura, the brand famous in the world of motorcycles. Untempered titanium gray version features a special monotone color emblem.

APIO A-mark Cutting Sticker, Complete Car Emblem & Stencil - Door panels feature the stylish "A" mark. Symbols of the complete car such as the "TS plate" and the APIO stencil are accurately reproduced.

Chassis & Geometry Details:
The same ladder frame and multi-link rigid-axle suspension commonly used in popular 1:10-scale off-road models, is condensed into Mini-Z size for the most articulation and performance available in any mini RC truck.
Ladder Frame - The Mini-Z 4x4 incorporates a ladder frame design with steel vertical plates, in combination with various molded parts, to deliver the ultimate balance of of rigidity and flex for superior performance and durability.
Solid Axles - Solid front and rear axles feature links with steel rods and captured rod ends. Ring and pinion gears, in addition to other gears and components, feature metal construction to withstand the heavy loads under the toughest driving conditions.
Steel Link & Ball End - The upper A-arms and lower links that connect the front and rear axles to the chassis, feature strong steel links and captured ball ends. This is the ideal design for strength, maximum range of motion, and smooth operation.
Coil Over Type, Shock Adsorber - The newly designed shock absorbers feature 360-degree spring retainers, which means they can't be lost on the trail and the springs are more likely to re-seat when the suspension settles after hard impacts or operating at the extreme limits of the suspension. The spring retainers simply cannot come loose.
Adjustable Wheelbase - The wheelbase can be changed to 110 or 120mm by changing the length of the spacer on the upper A-link. The Jimny, for example, is set to 120mm.
Steering Angle - The front axle features ideal Ackermann geometry. Combined with the advanced design of the axle housing and the other steering components, This model features the tightest turning radius in Mini-Z history. It means the Mini-Z 4x4 has exceptional handling capability for anything ranging from casual driving to hard-core crawling.
Drag Link & Tie Rod - The steering servo drag link and the rugged molded tie rod are part of a steering system that delivers an incredible amount of steering angle, which results in excellent rock crawling capability.
Tires & Wheel - Tires and wheels that are specific to each model are a major focus of the Mini-Z 4x4. This model features a scale reproduction of the BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 tires mounted on Suzuki factory-replica wheels with an aluminum-like silver finish.
Battery Tray - Four AAA batteries are located on top-front section of the chassis to ensure good ground clearance and achieve realistic rock crawler performance.

Driveline:
Gearbox & Gears - The gearbox features molded covers and includes 6 pinion gears that allow adjustment from ultra-low gearing for steep terrain, through to high-speed gearing for smooth running on flat roads. In addition, the need for annoying backlash adjustments has been negated with the special spacer mounted on the outside of the motor.
Slipper Clutch - A standard slipper clutch protects the drive system by reducing the torque when excessive load is applied. Note the metal upper shaft and primary gear for durability.
18 Full Ball Bearing Specifications - The best drive efficiency is accomplished with the included set of 18 ball bearings, factory installed to ensure the smoothest most efficient operation possible, right out of the box.
130 Motor - The Mini-Z 4x4 features a specially-designed high-torque motor that is unique in the Mini-Z World. It's optimized for maximum torque, and it develops more power at lower speeds.

Electronics:
New Speed Controller - The on-board electronics are also unique to the Mini-Z 4x4, with special features that improve the crawling experience. The accessory ports on top of the board allow an optional LED light set (MZW429R) to be easily plugged in to enhance realism.
Steering Servo - The component steering servo features its own casing to allow enhanced performance, and it connects to the receiver/ESC with an independent connector.

Light Unit Trim - Use when optional light unit is installed
Steering Dual Rate - Adjust amount of steering throw
