Yo KTeller, its G2TougeSpeciaL from honda-tech. Its cool to see you on this board talking about the Omni-power coilover system. You already know this but i just to say it again, i want them NOW! I need the Camber Kits and the coilovers all at once and when i read about the special offers g2ic will get, well that makes my day that much better! Thanks again Kteller and Omni, just when can we be expecting these products?

i thought i’d add this post from HT to help Omniman a bit and provide a bit more information about his coilovers. It’s about omnipower vs. hayami, vs. skunk2’s design.

coilovers

XDEep · July 16, 2004, 2:34pm

omniman:

the hayame coilovers use a 42mm piston and have different valveing than the omnipower coilovers. omnipower pistons are 46mm both.

mono tube:
omnipower yes
hayame yes
skunk2 no (uses twin tube)

piston size:
omnipower 46mm
hayame 42mm
skunk2 ? (smaller than 46 because its a twin tube and probably smaller than 42)

spring material:
omnipower sae 9254
hayame ?
skunk2 sae 9254

spring rate options:
omnipower: street 10k8k/sport 12k10k
hayame: 12k8
skunk2: 8k6k?

warrenty:
omnipower: 1 year , with no hassles
hayame/spw: good luck
skunk2: good luck

retail price: non adj.
omnipower: 699.99
hayame: 999.99
skunk2: 900? not really sure but they have a lot of over head and an expensive marketing program that their customers have to help pay for. i hear the import tunner add (2 pages) with the 2 black cars in it costs around 12k/month. and thats only one magazine.

racing experience:
omnipower: over 70 races won in the last 6 years with one of my engines in the car, 2 perfect seasons, one in drag and one in road racing. recent back to back triple podium finish in the 2004 canadian touring car championship (nick and nigel Krikorian, and Mike Thornly). constantly helping out people on ht with tech ?'s and giving unbiased answers based on experience.

hayame: none that i know of

skunk2: after i left (1 1/2 years ago) nothing worth noting.

lots of people ask me are my camber kits and slipover coilovers are the same.

the camber kits start out as 5 peices each side. i buy them from the same stamping house. i have a jig that they are bolted to then all 5 peices are welded together. after that they are powder coated. so really the only thing your paying extra for is the box. i also have a rear shim kit that i include so you can get some camber out of the rear.

later i will have a picture up with the camber kits in each stage of production.

also i have a few new parts that im working on which will be on the website this week.

good answer so far

the day you can go through an entire oceanliner container and enter all the items into the warehouse computer and stock everything on the corresponding shelves in your warehouse is the day you can expect everything to be set up the same day shit gets here.

he is the gentleman who helped develope Skunk tuners inot Skun2, same as either 3 or 4 other companies in todays big market.

he is credited with his first creation of the ls/vtec and he also was the pinoeer who helped develope and setup the stroker motor~

not to mention that, the liner isnt located at your shop~ unloading CUSTOMS and their duties and taxes~ then getting it delievered to your shop/warehouse to put together pack and label~

only update i can give you is that, all the prepaid orders will ship either friday or monday. so pretty much after that… things will be a bit closer to normal~
