New goodies

I know you fuckers will flame me to no end since you all worship GC coilovers, but i didn't have that kind of cash and i didn't really want coilovers anyway.

well i heard good things bout these, basically stock ride quality plus a little, and a good drop. I did want stiff stuff but in reality this is my daily driver and putting on 100 miles a day over shit-infested roads would mean i'd have to hire a full time chiropractor. Plus i wanna get a dampanchi doll and seat belt him in the back

I'm just glad you are finally giving that civic a drop. Those S-tech's are not that bad bro. I just installed a set on an RSX-S. I like the way it rides.

how much of a drop do they give? I'd go with out a camber kit first and see if there's a problem. Had my civic dropped about 2 1/4" and had no weird tire wear.

Had Agx's too, they were nice.

hmm, interesting....

well i'm basically concerened for the front, cause those kits are most expensive. the for the back i was just gonna say fuck it and just shim it. I'm still on the fence. Cause i don't wanna get 400 worth of tires and then all of a sudden discover my tire wear is going to shit, and have to install a camber kit, when i could just do it when i have everything apart.

any opinions on this?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/OMNI-...6 62361QQrdZ1

free shipping + free shim kit, all for the MSRP of the front kit.... plus the place seems good (famous last words)

yeah omni from what i understand some people have a love/hate relationship with omni power as well....

I personally like the look of their products (most of which replicate expensive name brand parts) and they have very aggressive pricing (in reguards to the camber kit and their coil overs)

However i've never tried any of their products, so maybe i should be the guinea pig...

Tein - S is nice. Got a buddy with 'em and I think the only reason I'm not thinking they're great is because he's a shitty driver and gave me a bad impression.

Happy for ya though, buying goodies is always a good feeling!

yeah i've decided to go without the camber kit for now. If shit goes south i'll throw one in, otherwise i'm probably just going to wait till summer to get one.

here's some pics of a civic Si on clubek.net that just had s-tech's and agx's
