Coilovers?
 
i want to buy a full coilover setup for my civic instead of just .. springs or adjustable springs..

i was looking at the ones omni makes.. there fairly cheap.. has anyone had any experiance with these?

if i shouldnt go with those.. what a good full coilover in the 700-800 range


thanks
nick

aerospeed coils and kyb gr-2's

3" drop and it rides ------- mint, I paid $230 for both shipped BRAND NEW, nobody that knows anything beleieves me when I tell them but its a mint ride

Coils are a great idea though, changing ride height on the fly can be fun

Even though it isn't a full coil over I would suggest Koni Yellows and some Ground control coilovers best ride for the price...

i haven't heard much about omni, but i slammed mine on ebay coilovers and stock shocks and it cost my 400 dollars worth of tires in one weekend. lol now i got new ones and my allignment is done. but seriously, the ride is horrible, its so bad, when im in someone elses car i still get scared over bumps and grab onto ----. so don't go ebay on this.

I rock the ksports. bought them off bodykitsnw on H-T. I have absolutely no complaints at 11k 9k spring rates. i feel a pretty decent difference in ride quality from soft to stiff. I roll about 1/2 way in all corners for 80+ miles a day. they are a full coilover too. and priced pretty well at $750/set.

There have been some horror stories about omnisports, but, if you do some good reading in H-T's suspension index, you will find a bunch of opinions that will affect your decision.

The omni coils are alright, two of my friends put them on thier cars, and for the money its a deal, hook it up with some nice struts/shocks though, and have gr-2's the right is slightly ruffer, but they handle really nice, cant get much better for the money, cheapness :P the only thing you have to watch out for with kyb gr-2 is that they like to blow after about a year of being on the car, they are really designed with intentions for a lowered car but they work fine :6 :y
