Mini-Z RWD MR-04 Jaguar XJR-14 No.4 LM 1991

The Hobby Hideaway Verdict: Legendary Group C Aerodynamics Meets Next-Gen Precision! The Jaguar XJR-14 is an absolute icon of the 1991 Le Mans and Group C racing era, instantly recognizable by its ultra-low profile and massive downforce. When you combine this legendary racing shell with Kyosho's revolutionary MR-04 chassis, you get a track weapon that demands attention. The Hobby Hideaway Team loves this specific Readyset because the long-wheelbase (LM) setup, paired with the radically redesigned MR-04 front end, delivers an incredibly stable, high-speed driving experience that is absolutely perfect for conquering wide, sweeping corners on the indoor track.

Revolutionary Front Suspension & LM Stability The magic of this package lies in the ground-up redesign of the MR-04 chassis. Kyosho completely re-engineered the front suspension, integrating the kingpin and steering knuckles to drastically lower the overall center of gravity. When applied to the longer 102mm LM wheelbase of the Jaguar XJR-14, this ultra-low CG means the chassis stays perfectly flat and planted at speeds that would cause other cars to traction roll. Furthermore, the newly upgraded steering potentiometer and revised gear ratios provide a steering feel that is lightning-fast and unbelievably precise.

Key Features & Technical Specs:

• Next-Gen MR-04 Chassis: The latest evolution of Kyosho's rear-wheel-drive platform, featuring a completely redesigned, ultra-low front suspension system.

• Factory-Finished Body: Includes the breathtakingly detailed, display-quality Jaguar XJR-14 No.4 LM 1991 Group C body.

• LM Motor Mount: Configured with the Le Mans (LM) motor mount and a 102mm wheelbase for maximum high-speed straight-line stability.

• Enhanced Steering Precision: Upgraded steering potentiometer and optimized gear ratios deliver razor-sharp, linear steering response.

• Readyset Package: Comes completely assembled right out of the box, including the reliable Kyosho Syncro KT-531P 2.4GHz transmitter.

• Ball Bearings Included: Equipped with a full set of precision ball bearings for maximum drivetrain efficiency and longer run times.

Hobby Hideaway Pro Tip: Because this Jaguar utilizes the longer 102mm LM wheelbase, it naturally excels at high-speed stability and wide sweepers, but it can feel slightly less nimble in ultra-tight hairpins compared to a shorter 98mm GT car. To get the front end to rotate faster on technical indoor tracks, try installing a slightly softer front spring or adjusting your steering tie-rod to add a tiny bit of front toe-out! This will give you the aggressive turn-in you need for the tight sections while maintaining that locked-in Group C straight-line speed.
