OMNIPOWER FULL COILOVERS.....

[Decepticon™]

I just recently picked up a set from Dirka Dirka and they fukking ride awesome. I just wanna know some other folks pros/cons with Omni. Thanx

[cactusEG]

I heard good stuff about them for the price...

I hear they're hard, but I guess that depends on the spring rate you get too.


Probably why cactusEG likes them, he's used to riding hard things.

Back on topic, they're good quality

I don't have the full coilovers but I do have the slip on coilovers on my civic. They ride pretty well and the spring rates are pretty much perfect for me. 448 frount and 336 rear. Good quality stuff for the price.

I have the sleeves! I really like them. A little stiff but not too much!

Call Omni and check to make sure yours aren't on their recall list... I know a few years ago (like maybe late 06/09), they were having problems because they milled the tophat (I believe) too thin and the full coilovers were breaking. Pretty sure they recalled the ones that were made, and I know they fixed the problem. Just might want to check.

But aside from that slight problem, I have heard nothing but good things about them. Comparable with Teins in quality.

Not quite.

Tein = KYB internals, Tanabe spring, assembled in japan

Omni = Tokico internals, Eibach spring, assembled in malaysia

One can stretch the word "quality" to mean just about anything, but those are the biggest and main differences. I'd prefer to have my part assembled in japan by an overachieving factory worker, rather than somebody in malaysia working for a bowl of rice.

Good for a cheap Tier C coilover i guess... but lacking in several areas.

thanks for the insight everyone. Well so far ive had the OMNIs on for about a week and i really havent found anything to complain about....YET. As far a product vs price goes i think the Omnis are an awesome setup for the price you pay. I got the low stance without killing myself with the ride quality.....

Apparently it was a problem with the 1st gen coil overs with the aluminum collars. The newer ones should have a steel mount.

i have them on my eg sedan they ride great and it corners like a mo fo, even tho i have 14" steelies, the only problem i had was one of the mounting studs broke, just put some anti seize on them.
