The fact that they don't offer adjustable damping affects the price significantly. The actual build cost (by a third party) is less and they don't offer the same profit margin as some of the more expensive setups. If you look hard enough, you will find that they have their limitations and that a setup like Tein RA's will easily outperform them, but at half the price, most people are more than willing to work with the compromise.

omni power has had their issues (breakage) with their full coilovers, but have addressed those issues. Here's is a thread I made on them and the problem:

there are other threads as well.

I still use my omni power sports, and they are fine for a budget full coilover setup I suppose.
