First: At what point does the car jerk when you downshift? Post clutch press, pre, in-gear, neutral...?

Second: Get an alignment...
The steering will be corrected and a good place will tell you anything else that is wrong w/ the suspension

Third: How far are you lowered and what shocks are you riding on? If theyre the original ones that came on the car it might just be time to change them...112k miles is a long way for those babies

Fourth: Get your timing belt changed...especially if youve never done it before (depending on how long youve owned the car, of course). Having it done is quite expensive, but the cost justifies the means...its a HUGE pain in the ass IMO. Have honda do it, if anyone, and get a new water pump at the same time...why not? Last time I had mine done I think it was over $500 for everything(plus new pump and valve adjustment...and some other crap too that escapes me right now)
