Default Omni or T1R suspension availability

Like the title says, are either of these available right now? Looking for a decent coilover setup for just under a grand. Tried searching but didn't have much luck. thanks...

Well...compared to his coupe with JIC full coils, SRR sways and tie and control arms, and energy bushings, he complained of bounciness, noisey, rear sag, adjustment was not as easy and the threads seemed to stick alot, few others things...dont remember everything...he just wasnt satisfied, actually in the process of selling that suspension setup off to buy another, not sure which route he's taking.

I would think about running the konis with springs, but I have heard that it messes up the balance of the car. I'm not doing suspension for simply looks, but better performance. I was planning to drop my R with Omni s because I like the ride and quality. Thanks for the responses.

where did you hear that from??? most people that are doing a strictly race setup are using kg/mm springs and koni yellows..... .. do you have a website for the omni's?? if i remember correctly the struts are steel.... not 100% about this tho..
