i've had my omnis for years and i've been unhappy witht he drop ever since. i've come to the point where i dont care about the preload and want my front lower. all my collars are at its max drop. so how do i do it?

here is a pic of the drop:


some changes since are that i got smaller tires. 195/50/15 which made the fender gap about 2 fingers in the front now. horrible.

 

anyone?

 

Why do you need to go lower? Wish my **** was the low...although I'm glad I don't have a jdm front

 

damn those are all the way down? omnis suck just try to sell them and get some coilovers that go low, like the F2(function/form), I have them and i cant even fit a foot under my front lip right now, and I still have nearly an inch to play with if for some reason I wanted it lower

 

whats wrong with that drop it looks good to me..

 

its a good drop but alot of people on here who have cars that arent necessarily a DD slam their cars for meets and such

 

i have my omnis and i love them, im at about that height right now with mine, if you want to go lower, take out the whole assembly, and take off the bottom peice, then twist down those 2 supporting collers and take them off. Then put the bottom peice back on and lower the one collar you left on to as low as you can, when you lower the car now youll be tucking hard and it will ride horrible, but you cant ride slammed and have excellent ride quality

 

you have to lose the "preload" on the coilovers, inorder to go lower.

you know how you have two collars on top, n one collar on bottem.

now you have to loosen the two collars on top, n use that to lower the car to go dumped.

hope that helps.

 

thats a pretty drop whats that like 2 inchs? mine is about that low as well ..better like that dont fall in potholes in jersey and it looks decent low perfect

 

I have omnis I just installed on my 95 gsr it rides awsome but I am in the same situation my front is as low as it gos but the rear can go alot lower for some reason.

 

if you find the older model lower collar it'll go lower... new collars are higher... bad thing about it is that it breaks

 

lol wtf was the point in buying expensive(ish...not really..but whatever) coilovers if your only goal was to sit low. I mean i love being slammed, but the car better freaking handle. And dont talk to me about "the lower the car, the better it handles" because i will hand down an engineering style beat down with all kinds of invisible **** like "roll center" "instant center" and "light beer" all of which i dont even fully understand.

You could have accomplished your slamming by buying cheapo coils and tokico blues or something.

oh yea, i did have the old collars and i didnt want them to break so i had them exchanged.

and to those that say the pic shows a fine drop, that is a old pic, i got the new colars and also smaller tires that made the front fender gap an inch, and it cant go any lower.

my originnal post says i dont give a **** about preload anymore.

 

Why ride like crap and try to slam it.. If u want to slam it just for looks thats stupid.. A more comfortlbe ride is more important.. I have omni power coil overs can drop me like 3 inches plus. I got it dropped like 2 . Got 17 some wheel tuck and a nice ride .. my Omni power coil over can get slammed damn far for my 95.... but up here in RI i can only lower it half way so i dont mess anything up. And if u are at stock 15'S go bigger rims helps close the gaps... with 17's and omni mine is low as hell and lookd perfectly fine.

 

hey that looks like my car....try going with 16s n 45 series tires
