Type-3 Chassis

The **Type-3 Chassis** (Japanese: タイプ3シャーシ, *Taipu Surī Shāshi*) is a Mini 4WD chassis released by Tamiya in June 1989. It was first equipped with the Rising Bird.

## General info

The Type-3 is the updated and improved version of the Type-1 Chassis.

Many features from the Type-2 Chassis, such as driveshaft bearing attachments (with plastic/brass bearings equipped by default), battery clip and guide rollers, are now standards for this chassis. In additions, the chassis also includes holes to dissipate heats and reduce weight. The crown gear and propeller shaft's position has been modified to minimize the power loss. Both the front bumper and the side-guards now has the additional screw holes for guide rollers.

However, since it was actually the updated version of Type-1, the chassis is still having the potential to flip over due of its high ground-clearance, which can be solved by using either the rear roller stay parts or using the low gear ratio setup.

Just like the Type-1, it has the light blue G1 crown gear attached to the front axle and the orange G2 crown gear attached to the rear axle.

The Type-3 Chassis was later modified into Truckin' Chassis.

## Colors

Super TZ-X Chassis

The **Super TZ-X Chassis** (Japanese: スーパーTZ-Xシャーシ, *Sūpā Tīzettoekkusu Shāshi*) is a Mini 4WD chassis released by Tamiya in April 1999. It debuted with the release of Vanishing-Gazer.

## General info

Being a updated version of the Super TZ Chassis, it shares many aspects of its predecessor. The Super TZ-X has some key differences: the additional attachment holes on the front bumper and on the rear.

Instead of the standard one-hardpoint rear roller stay, the Super TZ-X comes with the very same 2-hardpoint rear roller stay from the VS Chassis.

However, its has some flaws; the rear 2-hardpoint attachment holes can break easily, the drivetrain's precision is worse than the Super TZ's which lead to power loss, and the change in the motor case's design leds to it being imcompatible with the gear case from the Lightweight Super Speed Gear Set. In some ways, it can be seen as the Super version of the Type-4 Chassis due to its flaws as less Mini 4WD cars were released with this chassis.
