r/crz

I wanted to share the new color I gave my CR-Z, The spoiler is still missing; just waiting for it to dry. Greetings to everyone from MTY, NL, Mexico!"

Passenger Side WIP

Goal is to have no SRS light by the end by swapping over the OPDS module in the passenger seat

Thanks to @HondaGarage_ID on YouTube for the tutorial (and letting me test them out by sitting in his seat-swapped CR-Z)

So when I bought my car the folding part of the rear seat area had been removed by previous owner. I've been lookin for the part for a while but havent seen it available for less than $200. I picked up the trim/bolt covers for each side of the hinge from the junkyard but passed on the bulkhead cover (thats what the manual calls it) at that price... long story short I found a guy willing to trade his for a set of dealer option Enkei wheels I had. You have no idea what a pain in the ass it is to be missing that part of the interior. Anything I would put in the hatch ended up in the back seat by the end of the drive, including the cargo liner. I'm overjoyed to finally have my interior back to stock.

At least this time Jeremy's mirco car isn't holding up traffic. Also Captain Slow just gonna let that Lincoln limo clip into him like that?

11 years on and it’s still a satisfying car to drive.

So I bought this car over 6 months ago and have had a ton of fun with it. My main reason was to get a daily commuter thats not heavy on the pocket since I travel 60-70km daily. Recently however I have been getting 8/100kml or around 30mpg. This is with light driving, and long route and city driving mixed. I'm rarely getting 480-500km on a full tank.

The max I ever got was 5.5/100kml on a long route where my average speed was 70 km/h. I have got the throttle body serviced and use genuine honda 5w-30. I also changed the engine/air filter so that shouldnt be a problem. At this point my weekend car and this has almost the same mpg.

I have seen people claim it can get 42-45 mpg. I have seen my friends prius get 45-50 mpg daily. I know it's not a true hybrid like that but still it doesnt mean I should be getting 30 mpg. I get that this is meant to be a fun car, but 27-30mpg is killing my mood. The car is 2011, and has driven around 180k km.. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It was a joy, as always. A happy purring white pearl smoothly eating away the many km.
Going 130/140 km/h trough 800 km of Germany, 110 km/h trough 400 km of the Netherlands and mixed 110/130 km/h trough 200 km of Denmark, I managed fuel consumption of 5.8 l/100km (40.5 mpg). The slower 110 km/h stretch trough the Netherlands resulted in 5.5 l/100km (42.75 mpg)
I checked oil after returning home, its still on the max indication- so nothing to add at all. I so love this trustworthy reliable car!

Folded my mirror and hitched a ride in the tow of a semi truck for about an hour. *Play this game at your own risk*. Was worth it though with these gas prices.

Going to attempt to overhaul the interior of my Z. Not sure what other interior colors these cars came with but the chrome pieces make me sick lmfao. They have little cracks and are faded asf so i chose an Alcántara material to mess around with, ill be doing the door panels and wrapping the door handles black to match a well as doing the headliner someday. Anyone else done an interior wrap on their Z?

Want a vanity plate but not sure what. Drop suggestions below and maybe I’ll choose one!
