Let's start with my crz has extensive modifications to the suspension and handling.
Coilovers
Sway bars
Moonface Front Rollcenter Adjuster Arms
Good tyres
And while it corners well I wasn't happy with engine flex. Now in my 87 Crx I run FULL RACE tractions bars.
But I always wondered what would be the CRZ equivalent.
I soon discovered videos like these.
As I got researching more n more Hasport has a cool billet mount for the CRZ.
At first I wasn't sure if this would even work for our cars.
I guess the most common question is how much vibration is there. It's noticeable but not a feeling you would hate as long it's the lowest urathane choice of 62A!!
I can't stress that enough.
My real test is a lite 2k rpm launch in the rain cause it's happened before with the touchy aftermarket DBW throttle control on Race mode . (sensitive.)
And to my surprise it doesn't bounce and hop as much as what stock is.
And unlike the many times before if my friends drive the crz. Stalling the car cause they can't tell if the car is on , off or autostop.
This is a great way to connect the driver with L series engine under the hood.
Would I recommend it yes I would. If you want much more feel with your crz.
The upgrade of the two side mounts is not needed IMO.
Those mounts are cool, I wonder what would happen in a crash though? That bottom 'dog bone' transmission mount completely snapped / ripped the bottom off the trans on my car when i ran into a telephone pole. I think that if it didn't.. the engine and or trans might have pushed into the cabin. Not sure really, but, I'm glad it DID snap!!
Just a heads up. Makes me wonder.. not sure I would ever want to find out the answer to that question.
I walked away with 0 injuries, but, if it was a solid metal mount like this, it really makes me wonder what would have happened. Definitely more cabin damage no doubt..
After reading through sohcsol's post on the Eibach install, (which was great BTW) I was wondering if anyone has installed the H&R Springs? sohcsol was reporting a 1.25-1.50" ish drop while Eibach claims 1" (Maybe I'm looking at the wrong model?).
H&R claims 1.3" on theirs, which would meet my...
Ok. So first off I'm a welder and fabricator by trade for over 15 years.
With the way the z is setup it the rear there is no camber or caster adjustment and the factory wheels are way to far in the fenderwells. We all know this and most run spacers or aftermarket wheels to fix the spacing but...
Within the first few months of owning my CR-Z back in 2014 my front rotors warped after pushing them a bit hard in the mountains. I replaced with EBC USR7126 slotted rotors and didn't have any further issues until this past year. I've moved to a new area and make a weekly commute through a...
So I recently did a brake job on my CRZ. But I could not get the brake bracket off on either side in the front so i just did the pads and called it a day so I could go to work. So the brakes work fine, but the rotor cause the car to shake while braking at high speeds. I know I need to change the...
Anyone have their OEM shocks/struts and springs laying on a shelf somewhere? Mind if I buy them? or could I have you take a few measurements? I'm mocking up a lift kit for the Z but I still need to drive it every day so I can't take it apart. I bought all the components adjacent to the spacers...
