I was curious to see if anyone has used the Omni-Power coilover setup for full-track racing? or has used the Tein Flex type setup?

I was thinking of going with the Tein Flex because it comes with the EDC, springs/coilover/upper mount...and everything I need as far as that.


Price... Omni=$680 Tein Flex= $1300+


Anyone???

 

Tein Flex for a full-track setup? You're barking up the wrong tree. The Flex is a good street coilover, at best.

 

i would like to kno who is using omni power coil overs too, the price seems really good, i just need reviews on them

 

then give me a company that would be suitable... i mean my car is daily drivin... but i want to also use it as a auto-x/road racing(if i can ever find a track locally..)

 

bump

 

Tein flex has some pretty funky spring rates. The reviews posted on here about omni coilovers have been good, and the pric is good also. You cant go wrong with custom rate ground controls with koni yellows either

 

if I bought any type of stand-alone coilovers... it would be skunk2.

But I really want a full-out coilover setup. And I like the Idea of the Tein EDC, that would be fun to play with.


The omni power coilovers.. do look really really clean though.

 

Well for a fact I think I am going to go with the Omni-Power coilover. I trust Omniman with his knowledge of things, I have talked to him a couple of other times, and he seems quite smart.


I hear alot of people bad-mouthing Tein. So I rather try new things anyways.

But I would like to hear from people who do have the Omni-Power Full-Coilover setup... I would love to see some input on them. Thanx.

 

There is really no point in the edfc unless you are very serious about tracking your car. All it does is adjust the dampening force with out the need to get out and pop your hood and trunk.

 

Well right now, i have a set of Tokico Illuminas with Tokico Springs(shitty SPRINGS!) I was thinking of maybe just keeping the Tokico's... and get some Skunk2 coilovers...... But I dunnoo... My friend has a set of ...**** I forgot what company... but he has a set of the full-out coilovers... and they feel nice! and handle, really really well.

 

I've got the OmniPower full coilovers sitting in my room right now. I'll be sure to make a thread about my thoughts and opinions on them when I get 'em installed (any day now). I'll let ya know!

 

please do... hell give me a PM when u get them installed.. and if u have a digi cam.. take some pics... before and after... I would love to see the difference.

 

omni power is skunk2....one of the guys at skunk left and started omni power....dont remember his name....but just for example....compare the skunk2 camber kits for 96-00civic and the omni power ones....exact same manufacturer...

 

Thank you Captain Obvious!! We all know this already!

Anyway, I've got some pics of the coilovers I took when they came in. Hold on, I'll post ''em in a sec.

 

oh well fine by me..... Skunk2 is good! I could careless if they ripped them off.... haha.... still good quality...

 

ya I would love to see those pics... post em ASAP if u could...

 

Got his Camber kit too!

 

did u get his package for $799?


with the Rear Shim?

 

How quickly did u get those once u ordered them? and did u order them thru the website? or somewhere else?

 

yea, I got the package.
I sent a paypal to Omni and he sent the coilovers the very next morning. I received them... hmmm... I don't even think it was a week. Very fast shipping considering I live across the country. You should talk to him on AIM, he is always there willing to help if you have any questions and give advice too. OmnimanLSR is his s/n on AIM.

 

I am curious... since i see u have the same car as i do(clean car BTW) where exactly does that "Rear Shim" bolt go? and what's the purpose of it?


BTW, nice avatar... ATHF OWNS! haha

 

hahaha, yea ATHF 0wns j00!!

the rear shim bolt goes on the upper control arm in the rear suspension (I'm not entirely sure if that's what it's called) It's a piece that looks like a "T" that connects to your frame. All it does is push that out a lil so to correct your camber. You can get the same bolts and washers for way cheaper than Omni's selling them at Home Depot or Lowes or whatever, but I just wanted to now worry about that.

I hope that makes sense to you. If you were to look at your rear susp. you'd understand instantly.

 

Who makes the omni coilover dampers?

 

Well, I would assume Omni but I really don't know. I don't know if he has an outside company make them to his specs or what. You'd have to ask him.

 

either way... they look clean. I will most likely get that exact same package as u got. It looks worth it too me... Granted I don't know the 1st thing to camber tuning.. hahaha... I will learn some day.. and I will be able to fix it when it comes time.


Make definate sure to take before and after pics of ur installation...
