Hong Nor EFRA-2062 pipe system

Hong Nor have released this new in-line, EFRA approved, 3 chamber tuned pipe which provides high torque while offering a wide range of RPM. Manufactured with high quality polished aluminum and then chrome anodised, this pipe should look new forever while the new design “Billet Stinger” means that you should never smash the stinger end again. Pipe includes 2 exhaust seals, springs, and a 4mm setscrew and is suitable for almost all buggies and monster trucks.

Hong Nor have now announced the release of a new lightweight spur gear with 48T, suitable for the X1CR. This new spur gear reduces the revolving mass of the center differential and delivers more power to the drive line while the gear itself is made from high carbon steel and heat treated for maximum durability.

HongNor X1CR Shock Towers

HongNor X1CR Shock Towers

HongNor have released some new upgraded shock towers for the X1CR Buggy which are CNC machined from 5mm aircraft grade 7075 T6 aluminium. Both new towers have been hard-coated with special material for wear and durability and the front tower now has multiple half holes at the top and 3 mounting holes at the bottom. The rear towers have half holes at the top and an extra row on the bottom inside which gives more setup options for different track conditions.

Hong Nor Mini CRT-5 truggy

Hong Nor CRT-5

Previously we showed you some pictures of the Jammin Mini CRT-5 truggy, well here is its close relative (basically the same car), the Hong Nor CRT-5. The car is shaft driven 4wd and it seems nicely spec’d with metal shock towers, carbon fiber radio plate and c-hub suspension up front. The mini class is shaping up to be pretty cool with a lot of manufacturers already involved and these cars don’t hang about either on the track, with the ones i have seen so far, tearing up the dirt.

Hong Nor / Jammin pivot ball system

Hong Nor / Jammin pivot ball system

Apparently it is a big deal that Hong Nor / Jammin are releasing this optional pivot ball suspension system, seen above, for their X1 CR buggy? Personally i drove gas circuit cars for 17 years, so for me pivot ball suspension is one of the more accepted suspension systems available, but it seems that this is not the case in off road. Our partner sites Buggy-Sport and Neo-Buggy are trembling with excitment with the news of this revelation so please satisfy them by checking out the pictures on their sites here and here.
