[outatime]

Mugen sports suspension for a DC5 is a spring and damper package and it lowers the car by an inch or so I think, Tofu will confirm.

Are the mugen dampers you are talking about for EK the 5 way adjustable dampers or the non adjustable sports suspension that includes lowering springs? Part number 50000-XGE-K0S0 for the non adjustable and 50000-XGER-K0S0 for the 5 way adjustable dampers. Both lower the car by 20mm according to the mugen catalogue from EK4 and EK9 height respectively.

I believe both probably use OEM damper housings with modified mugen spec valving and different springs.

Apexi N1 Pro. It's too stiff for my liking.. thinking of getting Mugen or Koni shocks for the OEM feel.

ooohh sounds promising!..you sure the non-adjustable comes with lowering springs?

I don't read JDM but these are the catalogue scans that I have and they suggest that both come with lowering springs. The numbers in the second column appear to be spring rate compared to stock in kg/mm and the final column appears to be lowering amount in mm.
