I FuSe I has a little shameless behaviour in the past

Well, whoever receives the first couple of sets, post up reviews when you get them on.

They had a production version made but the alignment wasn't perfect so they had to go back and make some adjustments. According to them they are still hopeful for a January release.

Works for me.

Wow that sounds super! I like the idea of having it be a 16 mm bolt size and having an adaptor for 14 mm. From the pictures, it also looks like it comes with the topmounts as well. Can't wait for these to be released!

Anything yet?

BTW...if any of you aren't familiar with Omnipower products, I suggest you take a dander over to Honda-Tech and research a little... His products aren't too widely used on our new Civics, but his products have had incredible success on earlier Civics and Integras.

The man behind Omnipower (Omniman on HT) purportedly pioneered the first LS/VTEC head swap earlier in the 90's... he knows his stuff.

Well, I went to local shop today and asked about the Omnipower coilovers for the 2005 EX... and I'm assuming the guy was referring to the redesigned version (he wasn't sure) when he said they'll be released in anywhere from 30 to 45 days. Anyone hear from Omnipower directly?

i think it may be a good thing that the release date for the omnis is pushed back. thats more time for them to fix the problems. our guaranteed product will be even better on the road than riding half assed like the hayame v1's.

i hope omin takes their time on this set for the em2/es1/ep3 so we can finally have an affordable full coilover suspension for people who just want their daily driving to be more joyful.
