Default Eibach CR-Z

We received a CR-Z from Honda back in July and we're slowly building it up for SEMA. We'll also be using this car for product development and and ocassional track. I'll post updates here as they come as things are starting to snowball pretty quickly now that SEMA is just around the corner.

As of right now we have springs, sway bars and mono-tube coilovers in development for this car.

***UPDATES ON PAGE 4***

Here's the CR-Z the day it arrive to in July.

Here is a quick shot of the intake K&N made for us last week.

I'll try and get some shots of the prototype coilovers we're developing and test fitting tomorrow.

It's nice to finally see some manufacturers posting up what they have in development, I know there's a couple of things on the market, but I think Eibach are the first to actually post their own thread and show the product. Good for them!

Here's a shot of one of our engineers test fitting the Pro Street-S coilover kit. These are designed and built at Eibach NA using a monotube design with 46mm piston. We're going to do more testing to see if we can make these compatible with the newer Honda Fits as well.

Thanks, Jared!

We just received a package from our friends at Work Wheels. Emotion 11R in GTS/RC. They're 17x8 +35 and should fit pretty aggressive on the CR-Z!

Thanks, guys! We actually got a C West sponsorship for the car. The only thing we were able to install was the rear lip. We need to have everything painted first. Once I get some photos of the kit I'll post 'em up. This thing is coming together really quick now. Mugen rear wing should be arriving tomorrow via air freight from Japan...

Now this is a much better thread than another "un-named" thread with supposed fancy parts.

Interesting suspension, keep all of us updated.

Wow! Eibach is keepin' it real for sure! Hahaha, looking forward to seeing it all done. So I'm wondering, I read earlier it was gone to get a cage done. After SEMA, are there any plans for the car? Any track use in mind?
