Did any of you ever experience any fade when the shocks heat up (either in HPDE's or auto-x)? I have done my research and this will be one of the deciding factors of my purchase. My AGX's fade noticeably after a hard auto-x run and I am getting a little tired of this

Thanks!

I tested a set on my hatch earlier this year. I did an event at Gingerman on the saturday and an AutoX the next day. I didn't experience any noticeable fade in the suspension. The only thing I noticed is they performed well.

 

My tein Basics (94-01 integra) showed no fade whatsoever after a 70+ laps day.

 

my tein ss just flat out sucked in any weather.

seriously, avoid them at all costs.

 

Heading into hard turns after hard braking really sucked with my tein basics. With Integra spec omni's on my crx, that problem as well resolved.

 

What rates were you running on your basics ?

If they were 502/224, it's understandable.

My 448/336 feel strong. Much better then my last H&R race / Agx set up.

 

Tien SS are not the greatest and I would probably go with Progress for a few more bux. However Tien does offer many spring and valving options so you can use them on a daily basis and still be able to progress to a more track orriented set of rates.

I would run them over the Skunk3 setup even though they have a "race" version

I ran the standard dc2 chasis rates that came with my Tein Basics.

what rates for the front and rear are you running with the omnis? i have a slight problem with mine and i'm wondering if you have the same setup

i have 10k front and 12k rear

 

That would be what i have. Those rates in a 2k pd car on a road course works out pretty well.

One more question, is the rebound aggressive?

Hey splitime what spring rates did you run?

I want the damping to stay consistent.

 

ive been more than pleased with my Omni Powers... 12k/10k set up. i haven't noticed any fade...
