Lamborghini Diablo SE30 JOTA Registry
At 600hp, the Diablo SE30 JOTA remains the most powerful Diablo variant ever produced. I vividly remember the buzz in magazines and the rumors of this cult car discussed in collector circles. Imagine, until recently, I had never driven or seen an original JOTA in person.The JOTA upgrade kit was created by Lamborghini for VIP clients who wished to go GT racing in the FIA BPR GT Series, competing against the Mclaren F1 GTR, Ferrari F40 GTE, and Porsche 911 GT2. The JOTA was designed for the already raw, race inspired Diablo SE30 to produce more power. Developed by Lamborghini Engineering, the former Lamborghini F1 division, less than 30 kits were produced for the world.The kit consisted of the following;
- Racing ECU
- Forced Intake and unique intake Manifold system
- Unique Racing Cams
- Unique Functional Rear Hood Scoops
- Unique Exhaust System
- 400km/h Speedometer
- Small “JOTA” badge
Numerous experts and enthusiasts disagree about how many JOTA kit were installed at the factory. I have personally seen a few of the Diablo SE30 JOTA Production notes in archives in Sant’Agata that identify the cars as being produced with JOTA specification and without factory warranty.Like the original Miura JOTA, the Diablo SE30 JOTA was surrounded by myth and legend for many years. To date only one Diablo SE30 JOTA has publicly traded at auction. No official records or documents have been circulated or published and we were intrigured to know more! Aided by three European experts and a few collectors we were able to put together a comprehensive list of the entire of Diablo SE30 JOTA examples in the world, their color and some history! In addition, we were fortunate to locate the original factory parts manual scans and a few other exciting details.If you have any more details or information please feel free to contact us! We would love to know more!List of Factory LAMBORGHINI DIABLO SE30 JOTA26 Produced in Period, 2 Factory Kits installed Post-Production
