Yo wussup guys, as the title says i jus got a 02 si with 10k on it today. this is my second honda, i still have a 92 si right now. First off i have to say i luv the rpm range on my ep, its really fun to drive. Only thing i didn't like was no center console but i got use to it already. Oh and does n e one know if droppin it will void the certified warrenty? I think it will but i'm not sure.

Legally, dropping it cannot void your entire warranty, but if you run into problems associated with suspension, they will most likely blame it on the springs, but if your radio stops working, thats still covered for example. How much did you pay for it?

If you want to get "technical"... You should also check your state's inspection laws too. "Technically" in PA, ANY mods to ride height and you should fail state inspection - although I NEVER heard of anyone failing for it. In PA by the letter of the law if a vehicle is tested for inspection and ANYTHING is not witihin manufacturer tolerances you are supposed to fail.

Not nit picking - just being "technical" like you were...

awesome, good to have u on the board. 15k seems a lil steep for a 02 SI w/ 10k miles. O well... u got one! lol.

Dropping will not void warranty unless u blow ur struts/shocks or wuteva. But check into ur state laws. In MA here, a drop lower than 2" from stock is supposedly illegal, yet i haven't heard anyone not passing inspection because of that reason.

Welcome...


Like others have stated, dropping it will only affect the suspention part of the warranty. All other areas will still be covered (trust me on this :o ).
