[ZBrush] Hard surface base mesh workflow?

pom

I am trying to bring this shape into ZBrush. How do I make the topology density equal and keep some of the edges hard?

Crease will keep the wanted edges hard but it wont fix the topology density problem, DynaMesh/ZRemesher will make the density equal but will break some of my edges. Any ideas?

You have to bevel all the edges you want hard in your 3d app or using the zmodeller brush. If you want more even topo the just insert loops evenly along the length of the model. Dynamesh is dependant on the size of your model. you can dowload DynamehMaster here: http://www.zbrushcentral.com/showthread.php?177194-DynaMesh-Master!-unofficial-Information-Installation. Dynamesh at a higher polycount and if you need to Zremesh and increase subdivisions if necessary, then project all to get a lower res mesh with sub Ds.
