Every CRZ NEEDS THIS SUSPENSION MOD!!! CR-Z Build part 17 ~ ep.97

[@peetymcfly8871]

Beware when changing your front struts on the CRZ. Once you remove the struts, the axel will pop out of place. There is a 50% chance it will pop back in. If not, you will have another unexpected project that will ruin your day. I had to cut the cv boot just to see why the heck it won't go in its hole. I ended up cleaning the 3 bears, re-greased them, and put a new boot on. Preventive maintence.

[@UbanteGarage]

I’d just bungee it. Saves the pop out from happening. But In a split second it could still slip out and ruin the next 2 hours for you 😂

[@scottflores4482]

I love your channel and I totally feel you I'm a new owner of a 2014 CR-Z and I'm following you to get ideas I think you're doing a fantastic job😉

[@scottflores4482]

I'm also a person that likes to do their own s*** and you only learn from trial and error✌

[@steverae68]

Wow you jacked the rear from the towing eye. ?? Just bought a black CRZ like yours so looking for inspiration

[@poppycat8404]

Ai bro thanks for all the tips, been watching you videos quite abit. I’m a chick that rides bikes and I’m not too familiar with cars, just got a second hand manual CRZ from my family and been scratching my head thinking what I should do to it. Your videos are really helpful :) keep up the good work!

[@UbanteGarage]

Poppy Cat ayee good to hear! Manual Crz’s are rare and everyone wants them so congrats! And welcome to the crz fam 👊🏾😁

[@angelohank6829]

@Luciano Case Thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@angelohank6829]

@Luciano Case It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thanks so much, you saved my account !

Hello John, i would like to know your feeling now with your cusco center lock pillow ball upper. i think to get it on my CRZ ZF1. Thank you for help a lot of people with your videos.

[@UbanteGarage]

It’s great! Highly recommend getting them. And no prob! Thanks for the support brotha 👊🏾😁

[@WesleySanders]

Hey man just found your channel. Just got some BC coils for my Z and I’m curious if you reuse the top strut mounts for the front struts when you install them. Any help I’d appreciate.

[@mrbigglesowrth8509]

Nice mod , i got mine with Tein Street Flex Z worth every penny.

[@UbanteGarage]

I bet!

[@alfredoespitia1012]

I love watching the old videos where did you get your wide body for the front fenders?

[@UbanteGarage]

Haha thanks brotha! @rexxstyling sells them

[@alfredoespitia1012]

Thank man love the new vids too keep up the grind 💯

[@n051de4]

every time I watch your vids I hop on Tekken after

[@romeo032982]

Where did you get the front fender flares ?

[@UbanteGarage]

These arent flares but the arches are from rexxstyling on ig

[@sleeps0341]

Hi John, what exactly do these do? Do they stiffen the ride? I'm currently at 114k on mine and it is time to upgrade my suspension. Debating on the Tien system or full HPD. I daily drive mine as a commuter and at my last service I was told that I have a few suspension issues that I'll need to address. When I got my car I felt it kind of stiff where the suspension kind of rattles you on the bumps but the parts look stock. No wierd noise but I did notice that the rubber tops that you see when you open the hood are cracking. Since I have to replace those anyway found this but not sure if this is something really needed if I don't track and throw my car around every so often on the fun canyon roads on occasion. Thanks.

[@TheDingustime]

how did you get the suspension back once it fell ?

[@briareoshino6323]

Which is best Coilover set up 2011 CrZ daily driver ?? Thougts plz advise

[@UbanteGarage]

Honestly if it’s a daily I’d just go with stock or drop springs. Coils aren’t meant to be comfortable. And cheap doesn’t make them softer. I’d definitely go with bc racing tho! Make every drive a blast haha

[@stejayrado]

should get some trickle chargers

[@Catherozero07]

Hey bud! What sway bar endlinks are you using? Were they from the spoon sports front sway bar kit?

[@UbanteGarage]

These came with the god speeds... I bought them used so I’m not sure if they come with them

[@cjewe1z]

Do I need to mod the suspension for driving in a city full of humps, bumps and potholes?

[@UbanteGarage]

I’d stay stock if I was in those driving conditions brotha

[@cjewe1z]

@@UbanteGarage, thank you.

[@christianxzowner2958]

I wanna avoid sideways roll...wanna lower it ...will it stop moving...bodyroll in wind...constanly have to correct...its worst in other mode than sport...cuz the stiffness is not in other mode..also wanna put a tuned sway bar up front

[@UbanteGarage]

ChristianX Z owner coils and the pillow balls make a big difference

[@mrn.1533]

i lowered mine with springs only and i still have to correct a lot with side wind which makes no reason because of the low profile of the Z really annonying on the highway

[@UbanteGarage]

Springs don’t help at all. You should get coils to fix body roll

[@andrewhileman9227]

Can you use these with stock struts?

[@UbanteGarage]

No clue sorry

[@MrWacheez]

Where did you get those side skirts?! 😍😍

[@UbanteGarage]

Cheez I made them! 😁

[@zachfloss1065]

@@UbanteGarage would you consider making a pair to sell? those look clean af

[@ichemw]

What’s the best coils you suggest for the Z?

[@UbanteGarage]

Meguel Wade for $1000 coils I’d suggest bc racing forsure

[@ichemw]

Ubante Garage what about those monomax from Godspeed, how do they fair against the bc?

[@UbanteGarage]

I haven’t driven on them enough to have an opinion on them yet

[@ichemw]

I’m gonna go with the BC for sure, the internal pistons and the shock body are bigger than the Godspeed and few more features the BC like being nitrogen charged the Godspeed doesn’t have

[@summer_here4069]

Nice mod man, a few quick questions though. I am thinking of getting a Honda CRZ 2012-2015 as a first car. Any tips or headsup? How easy is this car to maintain? Any problems so far engine wise with its use? Do you think it would be a good first car to drive in? How much is the yearly car tax on this? Does Insurance register this as a high class vehicle? Much more information on first owning this car financially would be appreciated. Thanks

[@UbanteGarage]

its a great car! low maintenance vehicle forsure. everything else im not sure 😂

[@Bwallace1996]

Dude I need these lol

[@UbanteGarage]

Brandon Wallace do it!! So worth it haha. Although I should’ve bought new bearings cause that’s the reason it’s still knocking. I’ll just deal with it for now since the pillow balls reduced it a lot

[@tommykaira8775]

where can I get the side skirts?

[@UbanteGarage]

These are stock skirts with custom Ubeymade extensions

[@christianxzowner2958]

Any link for suspension

[@UbanteGarage]

There isn’t. I just look up bc coil overs for your year crz
