Advice for new Member

I am interested in getting some lowering springs and am looking to go no lower than 1.5-1.8 inches. I was looking at Either Eibach or H&R. What springs do you guys recommend considering me not wanting to change the shocks?

Also, i was really interested in changing my shift knob to the 2008 mugen Si shift knob. Are all these older shift knobs universal fitting to the 9th gen civics?

I know you say you don't want to go lower then 1.8 but I'm on Skunk 2 Springs. Its really not that low. Have no issues with anything.

webby, thanks for the advice. now the crucial part is getting the shift knob. I've called 3 dealers, one here in CA, one in GA, and one in WA. They all say it is a control item. One also expressed they would be heavily fined if they sold it to me.

What to do?

if you want a legit one, you have to find someone who has one of the mugen civics to order it.

More likely, you'll need camber kits with that drop. You'll notice how low the camber is after you get an alignment.

Icb is one of the few websites that sell genuine JDM parts. So yeah, that knob is genuine.

King motorsports it the authorized distributor for the United States. If it's legit, it'd be coming from them first.

King motorsports is also a very legit seller.

HFP will drop you an inch or so, but the suspension is awesome!

You're right and I know that, but this is one of those honda controlled items. I checked the King motorsports website, but they don't have the exact "MUGEN Si" model. No matter what, i gotta get my hands on an OEM, Genuine Mugen Si shift knob. If there's anyone out there that has an '08 Mugen Si that is willing to share their VIN in order to help a brotha' out, please let me know!!

I think @webby had two but he traded them for Aston Martins or something.... one was SC'ed and one was an over bored 2.4L NA monster with like an 8800 redline. It was an insane build. I think he retired from all that though.
