martin34 Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I always get bored around winter time and with my aftershock build nearly done and my carbon lst waiting on bits i thought i would turn my attention to this.Its my old Jato with new upgraded chassi and new os18tm and resinator pipe .Its got talon 2.8 tyres and wheels so i will have to sort the gearing.I have been recomended 20/54 so i will give that a go.I am waiting for a clutch and TSAI driveshafts because i think the standard plastic ones mite not take the power of the engine .

martin34 Posted November 6, 2010 Author Share Posted November 6, 2010 A pic with the wheels and tyres on.To me it looks much better with these than the original 2.2's . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HATZY Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 when i got back into the hobby a few years ago i really wanted a jato but my lhs didnt stock them and i didnt know about online shops or forums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin34 Posted November 7, 2010 Author Share Posted November 7, 2010 when i got back into the hobby a few years ago i really wanted a jato but my lhs didnt stock them and i didnt know about online shops or forums The Jato is a great little car if you like going fast but they are overpowered and dont corner well off road.The back just spins out and that was with the original 2.5 so with the os it should be crazy .My plan for this Jato is to run it on Brean sands while on holidays.Masses of open hard packed sand should be good for speed runs .

442Paul Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 thats going to be crazy, just like this one i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin34 Posted November 8, 2010 Author Share Posted November 8, 2010 Yep its going to be crazy mate .Hopefully the gears in the tranny will handle it but i think they should as i have seen jatos with 21 race spec motors in them.One was just built for speed and it did 91mph and now they are building a new motor to try and get it to over 100mph .
