2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars


2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars
Spoon is always one step ahead of the competition, whether that be in racing or introducing tuned versions of Honda’s sportiest cars. The new Spoon CR-Z closely follows Spoon president Tatsuru Ichishima’s philosophy on car tuning, improving the soul of the car rather than just its performance. Spoon makes the sporty Honda CR-Z a true sports car.
2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars
Honda CR-Z is known responsiveness of his suspension and high-quality power units, engineers Spoon upgraded clutch and chassis components to give the box a better ratio. In general, engineers do focus on the work of transmission, which should be maximally adapted to road races. In addition, special attention is paid to improving the aerodynamics of the body, at the moment is working with the side mirrors.
2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars
The Spoon car sits much closer to the ground, lowered by about an inch and a half. A black carbon-fiber hood and flashy wheels highlight its styling. Under the hood, Spoon took apart the 1.5-liter inline-4 and reassembled the i-VTEC powerplant with many of its own parts.
2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars
The ECU was remapped, increasing redline from 6200 rpm to 8500, with more torque in the mid range. Of particular note is Spoon’s new exhaust, which makes this hybrid sound like an Italian exotic. Together, the gasoline engine and electric motor produce about 145 bhp and about 150 lb.-ft. of torque, significant gains over stock. Also, 2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars claims it shed about 220 lb. from the car’s curb weight.
2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars
Mash the throttle, and the 2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars leaves the line in the same way as the original, with verve, but the 2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars gets stronger as the engine revs rise. The 2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars, with a 6-speed manual gearbox, dashed to 60 mph in a scant 6.9 seconds and to the quarter mile in 15.5. Naturally, the car’s fuel economy takes a hit; I predict the 2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars will still get around 25/29 mpg city/highway.
2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars
So far, “hybrid” and “performance” haven’t really meshed for any automaker. But with Spoon’s touch, this CR-Z may give hybrid a whole other meaning. According to our engineering contact at the firm, bigger things are in store for the Honda hatchback.
The 2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars handling is much sharper, thanks to stiffer springs and shocks and thicker anti-roll bars. With a strengthened chassis and a custom limited-slip differential, the 2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars feels much more neutral than the stock CR-Z. Spoon is currently working on a race version that Ichishima says will introduce a new era in endurance racing. He plans to have this car finished for the 25 Hours of Thunderhill in December.
2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars
This tuner version of the CR-Z will be available as a complete car later this year for about $8000 plus the cost of the car. First test 2011 SPOON SPORTS CR-Z Honda Sport Cars scheduled on 01 April.

2011 Koenigsegg Super Cars Edo Competition CCR Evolution is a car that holds the title of one of the world’s fastest car. For all these reasons, one of the German tuning company “Edo Competition” which has a reputation in making a super car is faster to make modifications in the improvement of and little change in the exterior.
2011 Koenigsegg Super Cars Edo Competition CCR Evolution
Edo Koenigsegg Super Cars CCR became one of their amazing work. Additionally there are the changes made to the interior and exterior design of the vehicle.

Edo has managed to upgrade with the exotic, rare and unique characteristic to them. However, the most impressive aspect is still intense and violent acceleration, which is almost unparalleled, even in the field of supercars.
Since the V8 engine is being force-fed by twin superchargers, the main focus was on the setup of the two Rotrex units. With assistance from the manufacturer the drive ratio was modified and the ECU was remapped to accommodate the hardware changes. The aim was to increase the power output while maintaining a broad torque curve over the whole rev range. With the new drive ratio the engine hits its torque peak earlier and puts out up to 891 horsepower, depending on the level of tune. In order to ensure long term reliability of the superchargers, the engine redline was lowered to 7,200 rpm.

To make changes, Edo Koenigsegg contacted to help with a modification ratio of the drive and remapping the ECU. After focusing on the setup of the two superchargers, they ensure that they can generate maximum power while providing a wider range of torque throughout the powerband, hitting the maximum torque earlier and actually reduces the rev limiter to 7200 RPM.

The result enables a V8 engine to produce up to 891 HP now – up from standard 806 HP. The six-speed gearbox was dismantled in its entirety and replaced with plastic bushing Uniball unit.

Top speed is 340 km/h (213 mph).
To give the SLS also a sportier appearance the BRABUS WIDESTAR wide-body version was developed in the wind tunnel.
