Interesting suspension, keep all of us updated.

Maybe this "un-named" thread is holding off for a reason. :D

We did the final test fit on our Pro-Kit today. It will lower the CR-Z 1", which looks great. (This is not our car). Part number 4085.140.

I saw the black Eibach CR-Z zooming around in morning traffic about a week ago. I was in my S2K, and you were on the 5 South in Santa Ana around the 55 South area.

Car looked really good

Am I seeing this wrong, or the tires are really 225/45r17 size???

If it is! isn't it to much rubber for that engine????.... Don't get me wrong, I'm just asking, 'cause here in Portugal when Honda launched the CR-z around June we (customers) were invited to a track day experience with the CR-z by Honda, and I really liked the behaviour in general, but I guessed the only thing the car didn't need was more rubber...the only change I really thought necessary was to reduce the tire wall, from the 195/55r16 to an almost obvious 205/50r16 and of course reducing the damping length, and for that we've got the Eibach Pro-kit, and for what I see, it's almost ready.

Anyway, I know outside europe and japan people prefer big rubbers, nothing against it! let's see how it works with those....

We haven't had a chance to mount up the wheels or even track the vehicle yet. This size was the best size recommended by Work Wheels. This doesn't limit us to changing the size in the future and we are also not limited to adding power. Only time and testing will tell what works best.

Can't wait to see this thing a little over a week. Where is your booth/car going to be set up?

We'll be in Central Hall.

We can't wait to see it either. The car is still getting the roll bar and wrap installed. We should have it back at the end of the week.

Our CR-Z will actually be at the Honda booth but we'll have all of our products for it on display at our booth. Vtecvoodoo and I will be there all week. Just look for Andre Agassi posing next to our coilovers in an Eibach shirt. Our booth is number 23343.

We should be getting the car back from Rally Innovations today. We might have it out at a local meet tomorrow if we can get the wheels on today. :x
