I've heard alot of good things about the Omni's and I know that they are good quality, however Skunk2 will release their's this week and so I need your guys opinion on which i should get.

OmniPower


Skunk2


Thanks!

 

Buy ground controls with Koni Yellows

 

omni

 

Those are good too but I want a full coilover...thanks for the response.

 

i would choose the omni power they look a little beefier in that pic.. and omni has been out for a while and people can attest to the quality and not saying that skunk 2 isnt but they are new and not yet refined

do the skunks have dampening adjustability?

 

TEIN SS

 

Tein SS is nice but I'm only planning on using the coilovers for daily driving. I'm not planning on going to the track or anything like that.

 

i use my car only for daily driving,very please with my set up.

Then just get some lowering springs... they would be cheaper and with a good performance shock probably perform way above what you have now.

 

ground control and skunk2 setups are nice, i have many friends with both and they havnt had any problems and they hug the road like no other.

 

i have a set of the tein, the difference between shocks w/springs and a full coilover is night and day; "do it right the first time with Tein SS!"

 

but you don't have speedbumps like this in the u.s.
so i need a good set up.

 

I'd go with Tein SS, perfect for street driving.

 

Omni sport coilovers, one of the best mods i've ever done. haven't regreted it since

OMNI will own skunk2s. Look at those shocks huge!!!

 

Omni's do look alot bigger and tougher but Skunk2 has been around alot longer and thats why a part of me wants to consider buying them.

 

tein ss is meant for street driving, it sucks *** at the track.

dont buy something based off appearance, that has to be the biggest fallacy of the racers creed. u should look at a company's heritage and racing history to get the best idea of how their products will turn out.

I can't agree more.
Dont judge a book by its cover. Call SKUNK2 and OMNI, ask as many questions as possible that you want to know. Heck, call me up, i will gladly help you out!

I am just saying, do the research and choose whats best for you, not someone else.

 

well isnt the guy that designs omnipower the same guy that used to be a big dog at skunk2???

 

what setup do they use on the skunk2 civic si? (taz harvey)

so if the "big dog" @ zeal or tein branched off to create his own coilover, which he outsourced from taiwan, is it justified to say that his design is superior or equivalent? being the genius behind the machine doesnt mean the machine will operate properly. there is trickle down marketing going on (which explains why omnis are created in a cheap labor situation).

I think Omni did a great job marketing their product, and i dont doubt their rigidty but something tells me that a product assembled in taiwan, and one that is created from an unknown manufacturer should be approached with extreme caution.

footnote: this is only an opinion. but dont take it for granted
