Honda CR-Z Parts & Accessories

The Honda CR-Z is a hybrid sport coupe combining a 1.5-liter i-VTEC engine with Honda's IMA hybrid assist system in a compact three-door hatchback body that delivered the sportiest driving experience in Honda's hybrid lineup. Produced from 2011 through 2016, the CR-Z occupies a unique position as the only manual-transmission hybrid ever sold in the United States, appealing to enthusiasts who wanted an efficient car that still rewarded driver engagement. The sporty chassis and willing engine make this an attractive platform for performance upgrades as well as routine maintenance.

Popular Upgrades

Frequently ordered parts for the CR-Z include K&N air filters, Skunk2 and Injen exhaust systems, Tein and KW coilover kits, EBC and Hawk brake pads, Goodridge stainless brake lines, Bosch cabin air filters, and oil filters. PowerStop slotted rotors improve heat dissipation under repeated hard braking. Goodridge stainless brake lines eliminate the spongy pedal feel caused by rubber hose expansion under pressure.

Performance and Handling

Honda's 1.5-liter engine with IMA hybrid assist responds well to intake and exhaust upgrades that improve airflow. The CR-Z's sport-oriented chassis responds well to suspension lowering in the 1-inch range. Coilover kits that allow independent spring rate and ride height adjustment deliver the most flexibility for both track day and daily driving use.

What exhaust fits a Honda CR-Z?

Skunk2 and Injen manufacture cat-back exhaust systems for the CR-Z. The hybrid powertrain operates the combustion engine in a specific rpm band, and exhaust modifications improve flow most noticeably at higher engine loads. Confirming the specific model year before ordering ensures the correct outlet position and tip size.

What suspension upgrades fit a Honda CR-Z?

Tein and KW manufacture coilover kits for the CR-Z that improve handling precision significantly. The CR-Z's sport-oriented chassis responds well to suspension lowering in the 1-inch range. Sway bar upgrades from Suspension Techniques reduce body roll and sharpen cornering response on this front-wheel-drive hybrid platform.

Why These Parts Fit Right

All parts specify the exact Honda CR-Z model year required for accurate fitment. The CR-Z uses unique hybrid-specific components that differ from standard Fit and Jazz platforms. OEM-equivalent specifications ensure installation with standard tools and no modification.
