I will say they have a really good test driver putting the buggy thru its paces!!! If a cars drivetrain can stay together with him at the wheel then u kno u've built something bomb proof.......the TEKNO guys know who I'm talking about

blair?

LOL, I was just coming on here to search for this thread. I'm very interested in seeing this thing with the top off.

Looking forward to seeing the nb48. I'm sure its as nice as the eb48 which I really like!

Although I'm not a Nitro guy...

Please state what % of parts are shared with the EB48 when you start showing it topless. :)

:nod:

About 70%.

I take it this is the news you guys were talking about would happen this weekend?:sneaky:

The unveiling of the NB is only 1 of the great things to come. There are a couple of other little things that people may want to go to RCX to see this weekend :)

Wish I could make it. Can't wait for this buggy to be out.

Pictures and write up on neobuggy.

I'll try to post a link, first time so bear with me!

Tekno, are you going to offer a E-conversion for it?! :lol:

looks good!

lol

what size clutch 32mm or 34mm ?

Hmm bit disappointed. All the regular blurbs which are present in 10 other chassis from manufacturers with more nitro experience. Wasn't the JQ also able to adjust the engine back and forth. Xray went back from the narrow central weight to the spread weight like distro of the kyosho. Wish Tekno all the best. I will stick to my older 2012 chassis for now.

I need a ET48!!!!!!

First post updated.

So if you move the engine f/r you need to flip the center diff to match? I can see the engine flipping in its mounts but i dont see extra holes for the diff. Good guess?

Bingo.

Any pics of the brake setup.

Any price info on it yet?

I saw pics of that too!!

The NB48 is due to release in this fall 2013 along with the NT48 and ET48. The NB48 price will be a little bit higher than the EB48 and will be in the price range of 600-700(comparable to other nitro kits on the market). These figures and release date are going to be more solidified in the coming months. Truggy prices are not yet determined but we are hoping for sub 700 price tag along with the buggy.

I really hope yall kept the center dogbone setup, cvd or captured fronts really wear out fast.

Center shafts are dog bones. The front AND rear bulkheads are angled to mate better with the center diff. This minimized drive angles, reduced wear (less friction), and increased efficiency.

CV's have extra parts and mass that we didn't think was necessary.

I like your thinking, I was going to buy a losi 3.0 to get me by till your nb48 release but looks like ill just wait it out.

This is great news, im glad to see a company that listens to there customers. You all just hit it way out of the park. I've been looking for a brand that had every class and a good product. I've been running Mugen since I started in 2004 and I currently run the mbx7. If the NB48 handles anything close to my x7. I'm switching and getting everything Tekno. Good Job!!!

anybody

34mm flywheel. 4-shoe clutch setup. Clutch bells should be compatible with Losi. Our bell will feature a different bearing setup that should be a little more durable than current offerings. More info on that later.

How much????

Here you go.

A friend of mine has the eb48.
Will most major parts, like a-arms be the same as the eb48 or is the whole car completely different?
Just wondering for having both cars u could get away with having one lot of spare parts for both...

70% parts compatibility. EB48 a-arms will be the same :tire:

Will the new rear bulkhead be backwards compatible with the EB48?

We kept as many parts in common as possible, so yes, you will have fewer spares in your box. That said we did not compromise the nitro platform in any way. It is purpose built nitro machine.

The NB48 rear bulkhead is offset and angled. The EB48 bulk is centered and straight out. However we have a new centered and angled bulkhead on the ET48 that is compatible with the EB48. The new bulkhead should be available separately soon.

Danny how come you rock so much????:nod:

Bulkheads are angled how? Vertically or Horizontally?

Rear bulkhead is slightly angled vertically.
