## About the 3rd-generation Mitsubishi Pajero

Launched in 1999, the 3rd-generation V60 Pajero is a SUV manufactured by Mitsubishi Motors. It supersedes the 2nd-generation V20 model.

Whereas previous Pajero models had body-on-frame design, the V60 model has the unibody construction with integral ladder frame chassis, increasing its torsional rigidity and drastically improves its cabin strength, while giving it a lower, wider stance. The V60 Pajero was available in 3-door and 5-door body configurations.

Powering the car are a series of petrol and diesel engines developed by Mitsubishi. Petrol engines available for the V60 Pajero ranging from a 3.0 liter 6G72 V6 engine to a 3.5 liter 6G75 V6 engine, while the available diesel engines are ranging from a 2.5 liter 4D56 turbocharged inline-4 engine to a 3.2 liter 4M41 turbocharged inline-4 engine. The engine is mated to either a 5-speed manual, a 4-speed INVECS-II automatic or a 5-speed INVECS-II tiptronic automatic gearbox, which sends the power to all four wheels through its full-time four-wheel-drive drivetrain. The Super Select 4WD, now renamed as Super Select 4WD II, was futher refined, with the bevel gears replaced with planetary gears and the system is now being fully electronic.

Supporting its monocoque chassis is the front double-wishbone suspensions and the rear multi-line-type double-wishbones suspensions, with coil springs on all four. Braking power is provided by the ventilated disc brakes on all four wheels.

The V60 Pajero was later superseded by the V80 Pajero in 2006.

Zero Chassis

The **Zero Chasssis** (Japanese: ゼロシャーシ, *Zero Shāshi*) is a Mini 4WD chassis released by Tamiya in September 1990 with the release of Dash-0 Horizon.

## General info

The chassis has lower center of gravity due to its lower height, and it is lighter compared to other chassis at the time. The side-guard has now become optional (through tune-up parts), the gear cover was now attaches to motor case instead of the main chassis, and has the hard-point for the rear stay for further tuning.

The shaft-driven four-wheel drive drivetrain of the chassis had been overhauled from the ground-up, hence its name 'Zero'. The orange crown gears used in earlier Type-series chassis were replaced by the new, pink-colored helical crown gears, which allows the propeller shaft to be moved at the lower position. Also new to the chassis is the 1.4mm propeller shaft.

Unfortunately, it suffers one problem: due to massive weight reduction, the chassis structure is weak and its front bumper, as a result, could break easily. Tamiya would release the FRP front bumper plates to fix this problem. In addition, the switch terminal can easily bend permanently and causing the car to inadvertently power on.

The design was later reused on Super-1 Chassis.

## Color

### Chassis frame

* Gray - Common color for most Zero Chassis cars. First Equipped with Dash-0 Horizon.
* Black - First Equipped with Dash-0 Horizon Special Kit.

### A parts

* Light warm gray - Common color for earlier batches for most Zero Chassis cars. First equipped with Dash-0 Horizon.
* Gray - Common color for later batches for most Zero Chassis cars.
* Black - First Equipped with Dash-0 Horizon Special Kit.

## Trivia

* Oddly, the Dash-0 Horizon bodyshell was originally designed for Type-3 Chassis, but for some reason Tamiya switched to Zero Chassis. This results in some inconsistent gap between the body and chassis.
* Earlier Zero Chassis car batches has the A parts molded in different color (light warm gray) than the main chassis frame. This practice was dropped in later batches.
Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe Flatnose

The **Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe Flatnose** (Japanese: ポルシェ 911ターボ フラットノーズ, *Porushe Nain'irebun Tābo Furattonōzu*) is a R/C Mini 4WD car released by Tamiya on November 26, 2002.

It was based on the Flachbau ("flatnose" or "slantnose") variant of the 930-generation Porsche 911 Turbo coupe sports car.

## General info

Unlike the rest of the 930 models, the Flachbau sports the flatnose and retractable headlamps that were first used in the company's 935 race car. Because each Flachbaus has their front bonnet remodeled from the normal Turbo coupes by handcrafting, they were usually carries high premium price, up to 60 percents more than that of the normal Turbo coupe's price.

Other than the flatnose front, all other specifications are the same as the Turbo coupe with the 330HP perfomance option equipped; It was powered by a 3.3 Liter turbocharged, water-cooled flat-6 petrol engine that was tuned to produces about 330 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and 344 lb·ft at 4,000rpm. The engine was mated to a 4-speed manual gearbox and later a 5-speed manual gearbox, which then transfers the power to the rear wheels. Other specifications includes the front and rear large cross-drilled ventilated disc brakes.

The Flachbau was discontinued in 1989 as with other 930 models. The 930 models were superseded by the short-lived 911SC models.

VZ Chassis

The **VZ Chassis** (Japanese: VZシャーシ, *Byīzetto Shāshi*) is a Mini 4WD Chassis released by Tamiya. It was officially unveiled in the 2019 All Japan Model & Hobby Show, which was held from September 27 to September 29, 2019. Neo-VQS was the first car to be equipped with the VZ Chassis.

## General info

Being a successor to the VS Chassis, the VZ Chassis retains several aspects from its predecessor; it has the short 80mm wheelbase, and is equipped with the same gear set, terminals, battery switch type and propeller shaft. However, the chassis now comes with a carbon pinion gear by default.

The main chassis frame features a semi-multi-subframe design, which allow it to have a similar chassis strength comparable to that of the FM-A Chassis. Like most of the current chassis, the front bumper and the rear stay has been extended, and has the default configuration of a pair of rollers on the front and 2 pairs of rollers on the rear. Various attachment holes can be spotted on the main chassis frame, allowing it to be attached with various Grade-up Parts. The small battery clip on the chassis, which inherited from its predecessor, has been strengthened.

Whereas most latest chassis has their A parts molded in the low-friction POM (Polyoxymethylene) plastic, the VZ Chassis has its A parts molded in the standard ABS plastic. Instead, each VZ Chassis kits now includes a separate low-friction plastic bearing set, which minimizing power loss

What set it apart from other chassis is that the VZ Chassis comes with a user-removable front bumper, which is attached to the main chassis frame with a pair of truss screws. The VZ Chassis, as with the FM-A Chassis, features a removable rear stay. This allows racers to convert it to a bumper-less setup without the need for cutting or other such destructive modifications. However, it doesn't come with any skid bar by default. The removable bumper/rear stay setup also has the benefit of allowing cars based on real-world vehicles (For example, the Toyota GR Yaris and Honda e) to better resemble their actual counterparts, as well as in show-quality setups where the use of bumpers and/or rear stays may be deemed unnecessary or distracting.

Performance-wise, the VZ Chassis is similar to that of VS Chassis, but with the stability that is comparable to all co-current chassis (AR, MA and FM-A), while having better adaptability compare to the FM-A chassis. The chassis's multi-subframe design also helps on the toughness of the chassis.

## Trivia

* The VZ Chassis is the first chassis to feature a user-removable front bumper.
* Despite being equipped with the carbon pinion gear by default, the VZ Chassis can be equipped with any of the 8t pinion gears.

Night Seek G

## In Fictional Media

### **Owner**

Mr.G

The **Night Seek G** (Japanese: ナイトシークG, *Naito Shīku Jī*) is a fictional Mini 4WD car that appear in *Hyper Dash! Yonkuro*.

A deviative from the Night Seek, it was made and owns by Mr.G, whose identity is Genkuro Hinomaru, who takes the Mr.G name from the alternative version of Yonkuro himself.

## General info

The Night Seek G has most of the features of its base car. The knife-shaped canopy, the black body color and the sharp body design were remains untouched.

### *Hyper Dash! Yonkuro*

The Night Seek G was the base car of all the Dark Dominion's machines.Like the rest of the Night Seek-based machines, the G was equipped with the MA Chassis made of Tungsten metal, the high-output batteries and high torque motor.

In PHASE 5 and PHASE 6, Mr.G was seen holding the Night Seek G in the past. It was revealed that the Night Seek G has the gravity control mechanism, in which several spinning gyros (That were spinning at the same speed as the wheels) offsetting the acceleration while generating g-forces on the car, allows it to sticking onto the road surfaces no matter what. According to him, the Night Seek G is a 'eternal horizon' that won't leave the surfaces.

It was implies that Mr.G's Night Seek G has been upgraded into the Over the Horizon. This was more than less comfirmed by Hell Crow, as the Dark Machines are no more than the prototypes and the data gather from them was used to create the Black Dash Machines.

Street Mini 4WD

The **Street Mini 4WD** is a unofficial race category where the Mini 4WD cars runs in the open space without circuit with the racer following them and guides the car with the guide stick.

In street racing, racers are commonly uses weak motors such as Stock motor or Touch Dash Motor and high gear ratio setups such as 5:1 and 4:1, although it all depends on the type of the race track. Typically, 4 rollers setup is used as basic setting for a Mini 4WD car developed for street races (2 on the front bumper and 2 on the side guard). The purpose for this setting is to help the racer to guide the car.

Although the Mini 4WD cars were produced in Japan, the street races have obtain a lot of interest in Italy where racers runs for many years in this kind of competitions as well as in the usual on-track ones.

The street racing in Italy employ a regulation based on the official Tamiya race regulation, but there aren't restricted to only Tamiya models and Grade-Up Parts. (For example, the use of battery from the other brands is allowed.)

One of the basic concepts that the Street Mini 4WD regulation imposes is to be able to develop a Mini 4WD car as much as possible similar to a real racing car.

The street Mini 4WD races are based on the races that were represented in the manga and anime *Dash! Yonkuro* and the on-going *Hyper Dash! Yonkuro* manga.

Ultra Burning Circuit 2016

The **Ultra Burning Circuit 2016** (Japanese: ウルトラバーニングサーキット2016, *Urutora Bāningu Sākitto 2016*) is a Mini 4WD circuit built by Tamiya for the 2016 season of Tamiya Japan Cup.

The first section after the right corner is the Quick Turn, a 35-degree bank corner section. It is followed by the tilt-placed Glide Bank 45 section.

The Double Dragon section after it is the second most hardest section as it was the double slope sections combine as one. The car could either course out or flip over if the car's stability while jumping is not stable. The car could also course out if the car is going too fast and didn't land properly before the New Era U-turn section.

After the single straight part and the left corner is The Alps section, combined wtih the linear Eiger Slope uphill part, a single straight part and the Eiger Step downhill part. It is the most hardest section of the circuit, as one unstable landing could cause the car to course out or flip over.

Following after the left U-turn is the Vertical Changer, which is the 3rd most hardest sections for the car in the last lane. The single-lane part is the near 90-degree bank corner, as such the car in the last lane must go faster to pass through the section or it will stuck in the middle of the section.

The last section after the 2-part straight parts is the Fujitsu SSS section, which is the multiple corner section. The finish line will be crossed after passing the section.

For the final stage that was held on October 16 at Toyota MEGA WEB showroom (located in Koto, Tokyo, Japan), the normal curve parts on the Fujitsu SSS section was replaced by the digital curve parts, thus increased the difficulty of the circult.
