Project z gets a freer flowing oem inlet manifold for a mild bhp boost courtesy of honda parts specialists tegiwa imports.
After the last issue went to print, the penny suddenly dropped that, while I continue my anxious wait for the arrival of some new suspension parts from abroad, I have very little to write about for the next issue, which is now! The last installment of Project CRZ introduced the first addition to the interior, a Spoon Sports wide-angle mirror – and very cool it is, too! But it’s hardly the type of modification that will keep diehard performance fans happy, is it? After all, performance is in the title of this very magazine!
The process started like most, in that I sat down at my computer and started creating a car parts wish list. Planning what mods to do to the Honda CRZ is not as easy as an EP3 Civic or Nissan S-body because, unlike those examples, there isn’t anywhere near as many parts available, or indeed companies that cater for the hot hybrid.
