Default Best $700ish setup

i was going to get some omni coilovers but ive had a hard time getting them from websites, all on backorder. Now i was considering GC/Koni and i hear alot of people enjoy them and was wondering if there was a full coil over in that price range that i should look at instead? And what do you think about skunk pro c's i got a buddy that can sell them to me at a good price.

i have a 91 cvic

GC Koni > Omni
PIC > Omni

people will argue that GC Koni > PIC or that PIC > GC KONI

skunk2 isn't a suspension tuning company. Nuff said.

koni/gc or PIC,

PIC if you want full coilover.

Not sure about PICs warranty, koni is for life if you buy new and they rebuild (koni) to whatever spec you want for later upgrades. PICs are good too just not sure about the company like I am about koni since I own GC/koni. (biased opinion)

Interesting, this is the first time I've seen people suggesting PIC's over GC/Konis.

What are the specific benefits of the PIC's? (just the fact that they are a full coil?)

ots koni dampening isn't as 'aggressive' as the ots PIC's and the pic's are already shorter
