Posted on 04.15.11 | Andrew Beckford No Comments

While crusing the Auto Club Expo here at the Toyota Grand Prix Of Long Beach I spotted a prinstine example of a full-Mugen Honda CR-Z in the Indy Car Fan village.  Leave it to Mugen to make a Hybrid look super fresh!  If you are in So-Cal you definitely need to come out to the Grand Prix here in Long Beach and see all this cool stuff for yourself!

Hype Video: HKS Honda CR-Z “Green Monster” In Action

Posted on 01.19.11 | Andrew Beckford 1 Comment

We filled you in on the fact that HKS has been building parts for the Honda CR-Z for the last 6 months or so.  In this video we get to see HKS put their CR-Z project code named “Green Monster” to the test by putting Nobuteru “N.O.B.” Taniguchi behind the wheel at Tsukuba Circuit.   What time do you think N.O.B. can lay down in Honda’s “sport hybrid”?  Check out the video below to find out!  P.S. this video is totally in Japanese so if you understand it then sit back and enjoy the full 7 minute video.  Otherwise you may want to skip to the 3 minute mark to get to the good part.
