yea me too but does anyone kno what rims they are ?
its the same rims as the blue one but i still can't figure out which ones they are.
its not the 57motorsports....
I really want to find out what wheels the blue ones are too. Look amazing on a white cr-z. Also I wonder what offset they are. 225/45 R17 is easy to read tho! :grin:
looks painted black... i wouldn't expect a company like Spoon to make a cf hood for any car much less the CR-Z... i would expect a company like "Seibon" to start making some cf goodies for the CR-Z soon...
The ECU was remapped, increasing redline from 6200 rpm to 8500, with more torque in the mid range.
Together, the gasoline engine and electric motor produce about 145 bhp and about 150 lb.-ft. of torque
dashed to 60 mph in a scant 6.9 seconds and to the quarter mile in 15.5
just those numbers alone make the CR-Z even more interesting than b4... especially the raised rev limiter... i wasn't sure how high the stock motor can go w/o damaging something but it seems like it can handle the added power and higher revs...
those numbers also put it close to the USDM stock civic Si numbers... lets hope that the hurt fuel economy of 25c/29h was just in Sport mode... if econ can retain 35h+ then that's a real winner...
my question is, why didn't Honda release the CR-Z with these specs in the first place??
Also the weight 200lbs was reduced. Likely, no airbag, sound deaden, etc...
Also read $8000 in parts. All that to make it match a Civic Si's performance.
So is this worth a stock civic si which has all the safety and comfort features and less $8000?
oh sweet now we know what spoon's new wheels are. thanks~
also, if its just exhaust + tune like you said, then i really feel that making the cr-z do what spoon made it do (engine wise) wouldn't be too expensive. because the spoon cr-z has coilovers, brake calipers, wheels which would add up to a bit more than 4k. so thats already 4k off the 8k for the complete spoon package. minus whatever else they did that doesn't add those horsepower, then the leftover price goes towards the exhaust + tune which is what added the power.
oh and i hope spoon gets us a dyno graph of this new tune + exhaust. i really wanna see the new power curve vs. the stock one.
total parts - $3950-$5550
labor - $2450-$4050
total Spoon kitted CR-Z - $8000
obviously add the price of the "tune" as well but basically those are my numbers and i'm sticking to them... the parts prices are really conservative considering it's "Spoon" especially if they're selling as a kit, some people will pay a premium for just the name alone...
+1 on that dyno graph... would LOOOOOVE to see that...
*edit - forgot to add... hopefully the price isn't more than what i'm willing to spend on the CR-Z... if it's priced right and i'm able to get one when it's released, i plan on dropping it off to my friend for him to make some aftermarket performance parts... here's his site if anyone is interested P2R
