im looking for a really fast engine. I have a RC10gt2 with the same stock .15 engine,and was woundering wat could go way faster then that? if you know how fast it would go. plz add that as well.

I have an RC10GT with an OS .18 CVR. It should drop right in a GT2. My GT does about 50 mph. You might also want to check out LRP they make some decent motors as well,

ok cool whats the diffrence between that engine and the .18TZ?

The TZ is alot more powerful. If you check out the OS web site they got to pull 2.28 horse power. If you check out my other thread DEATH OF A JATO there is a guy who posted that a TZ managed 92mph. His screen name is MiamizFinest and he knows alot about the TZ. it is one sick motor. Might stick one in my Jato not sure yet.

cool thx do u know any other faster than that?

At about 5 times the price YEA [:@]

yeah get a cheap os engine, it doesn' tneed to me like nice looking just look at the stats

what stats should i look at ?

rpm and bhp.

whats really high for rpm and bhp?

um well if you look at a good .12 there is the 40 thousands and bhp aint as big but 1.6 1.5 in there is pretty good.

if i put the O.S. 18tz in my gt2, how fast do u think it will be?

Probably 40 to 50 mph area if you don't tear the diff out of it getting there

if you want speed buy like the ofna jlr .12. that will give you tons of speed. any of the high brand .12 will get you going faster than that .18tz

I think the .18TZ is overkill for the GT2. The .18 CV-R in my GT is a beast. It will also strip the spur gear if your constantly launching hard from a dead stop. .18TZ great motor but overkill for the GT2.

i dont want to blow anything out of my GT2. if theirs that many problems, then whats the perfect/fastest engine i could get i want it faster than my jato!

You want a race bred 1/10 gas truck, to go faster than your onroad jato with 2-speed?....

No matter what motor you drop in your GT2 it all comes down to gearing. The GT2 will never be faster than the Jato. I also have a Jato 3.3 and that thing is strictly for speed. If you drop the .18TZ in your Jato and gear it down a little you may be able to achieve 80mph but it will be unstable.

so is the O.S. .18tz. faster than the TRX 3.3?

The .18TZ is alot more powerful. The TRX 3.3 puts out .92 bhp. The OS .18 CVR puts out 1.35 bhp and the OS .18 TZ puts out 1.8 bhp. In the Jato the TZ is a screamer. Im actually getting one from my lhs for about 225.00 which is alot cheaper than the other engine I was thinking of getting for my Jato.

ok thx guys!
