RE: Soon To Be The Fastest Jato On RCU!!!!!
slapping an engine, and alloy arms dosnt make a car do 80mph mate. Especially on a 4wd ST, theres just to much driveline resistance, plus the fact that the MT2 is quite a heavy truck. What gearing are u running?
Another fella had a thread called RS4 MT2 jato killer, he had a 18TZ, Alot of lightened parts, the 2 speed, different gearing changes, THS tuned pipe etc and could only get in the 60s.

jato is 2wd
and a big block has more torque than the tz (although the tz has alot for a small block)

RE: Soon To Be The Fastest Jato On RCU!!!!!
if u looked at his pics, the fella has a RS4MT2, he said does 80mph, i was stating that throwing a TZ into a MT2 and basically calling it a day wont get u to 80mph, at most about 60mph
Im not following u around mate, i hang around the ST area as i have a ST, much the same as u have a ST, i roam the ST, MT, Onroad, Electric and Mini forum as i have RCs in these areas. So no im not following u around LOL
Il call u mate if u want to lol, im australian its part of our way LOL

Hey miamiz im a avid watcher of all your projects as some of them are amaizing, to bad the jato didnt work out, im sure if u put the work into the jato that u do some of your other RCs it would be a weapon. Are u still gonna sell the chassis or are u goin to continue with the project?

i think it would work, you just need a really high grip surface, and a lot more downforce, do you have a buggy wing on the back?

Well guys........this is my final report on my jato.........
yesturday i tryed out the tallest gearing i could possibably use and still this thing came out of the whole like a beast but in the end the motor is way to much for the jato... i tryed everything to get this thing to work right i played with the suspention, cambers, 2nd gear timing weight in the front ripped out the wing ect..........the main problem i had was the fact that no matter how slow i eased into the gas once the motor would open up a little ove HALF WOT all of a suddent it was a huge BURST and the motor would start screaming after that it was imposable to get the rear tires to hook onto the ground, it would take for ever to pick up speed becuase i couldnt floor it i needed a big roll out and still i couldnt control it i dout i was able to break 60 MPH with out looseing control off the car and honestly i was pist off that i couldnt control it i was litterally banging the jato all over the place and i was worried about the motor and pipe geting damage......finally the LAST AND FINAL STRAW was when i lost control and ramed into my friends little pit area and crashed into his brand new bottel of OD fuel........as you can image the bottle basical blew up............in the crash some how the hump pack wire for slashed and the hump back started geting nice and fat and i had to rip it off and watch it blow up a few feet away......and my rear shock tower broke...........i havent broken a part or crashed on any of my 17 cars in the past 6 months.........i was REALLY PIST........bascialy on the spot i ripped my motor,reciver,and servos out and try to sell the jato on the spot LOL (failed tho i still have it) i also ripped out all that upgraded breaking and aluminum servo horn and gave it to the guy whos bottle i crashed into (he has a jato to and at the begin of the night was asking me where i got it) i felt bad his 30 bucks whent downt he drain so i gave him those parts and i kept his stock ones (i think that was the right thing to do he was happy)
i can honestly say this project was a complete waste of time, ive built some fast freaking cars before but this one REALLY REALLY SUCKED becuase in the end the motor was just to much for the car RWD just wasnt working, if it was 4WD it would have bein perfect
if anyone has any questions feel free to ask.........
BTW the car is going on ebay rolling chassis....so for u ebay surfers ull see it there soon

it would be like a top fuel rail....it would need an adjustable wheelie bar, one that you could have the tires riding the ground

RE: Soon To Be The Fastest Jato On RCU!!!!!
gotto love them ninjas, mates got 1 in his Hyper 8 kit, frieking insane, hes got it geared mainly for low end, but the top end is still amaizing. Only problem with his is, it does not like to sit still for long, u cant really let it idle for long, it just dies. I keep telling him its lean, as its idles in that high pitch whinning kinda idle if u know what i mean? But he insists its not, so what ever its his motor LOL. Hope u find a chassis worthy of this great motor
Maybe a menace 4x4 ST? HEHE[>:]

Are you stock behind the spur gear, I mean the only gearing changes you have made is to the clutchbell/spur?? What is the height of your tires??
