Before that it appears that the base and the sport shared the same 1EA1E shocks (pre 2013)...perhaps the sport package had stiffer springs or different suspension parts that warranted calling it a "sport" Nonetheless if you get the sport shocks pre 2013 your actually getting the same shocks used in the base model in all the years from 2009 to 2014.
