YouTube - ‪CR-Z FULL TUNE PROJECT
Ok, so it's only a matter of time until we get the internals over here to pull this off. Obviously this car isn't pulling 320ps w/o some rotating assembly mods right? I know my old d-series in my crx could only handle about 200HP turbo'd on stock internals. Unless the IMA thingy is assisting in these numbers, but the dyno pull seems to be WOT and high rpm's so the motor has to be doing some work here right?

All we need is someone to get there hands on some con-rods from the land of the rising sun, so a company like skunk2 can copy them.
Oh wait, what's this? half of japan is underwater? half of japan sank in the ocean? half of our favorite cars are now rusted from salt? damn you nature!!!

 

Cower or someone just need to make some H Beams based of the originals. No biggie.

Also 250 km/h is only 155mph...

 

well it's not the top speed that impressed me. it's the figures. wish they'd have shown the tq on the dyno chart. still 155 was probably on factory gearing, i don't think the stock crz could get that. The GE8 sure as hell can't.

 

At 1:33 they show the torque. 37.6 kg-m is about 270 lb ft.

 

question- can the crz tranny bolt up to the l15a7 in a ge8 chassis given the crz utilizes the IMA system?
also, is the gearing different? cause a quicker ratio swap(or complete trans swap) would be slick.

 

Ps vs HP 236Ps would be 230hp +/- still fast for a 2 seater & @ the MPG this still gets.

 

call me crazy but i thought I saw a supercharger not a turbo?

 

BINGO
quick google search reveals the gts7040 is a....supercharger
pretty cool though

 

I have posted all of this in a detailed thread, "technical tranny discussion"...including gear ratios, final drive, etc

 

Awe, my bad did not watch that part of the vid closely, I saw hks and auto assumed it was turbo

 

yea i thought it was at first too, especially when i saw the SSQ. then i remember seeing somewhere else that hks had a supercharger for the crz so i just google. nbd. cool find though man!

 

it really shows what our engine can be capable of *IF* given the right parts.

 

Rod bolts, rods and boost.

All of which are already available to you guys. If you want it, you can do it without spending a fortune.

If I was in there I would get some new slugs too. Wiseco or Mahle will make you any piston you want and tell you what you should gap the rings to based on planned duty and fuel.
