For 04 Honda made some changes to make the car "more firmly planted in corners" according to Car and Driver. I dont care for the softer ride but am wondering if anyone knows a list of parts or changes to the alignment setup that Honda did to achieve this. I like a little drift when I can easily control it and bring one up on demand, but like extra grip at the limit that would build up resistance to drifts that I don't want.

I try to drive safely and responsibly in traffic, but am new to the car and without knowing limits, behavior in a slide, hard tire compounds, frequent cool weather here in MPLS, and lots of rain potential, I like to have the car as idiot proof as possible knowing that I am the potential idiot.

Gracias.

In terms of spring and damper tuning, up front the spring rates have been increased by nearly 7%, while in the rear they've actually been softened by roughly 10%. Damper rates have been adjusted accordingly. The front stabilizer bar is unchanged, while the rear bar has been reduced in diameter by 1.8mm.
