Question Hayame V3 or Omni Power???

i was looking in to geting some new coilovers kits b/c i found out the Skunk2's only work with Koni Yellow, and for less than the price to buy and install, i can get the Hayame V3's for $500 less and the Omni's for $100 more. which is a better brand to go with, are they both respectable or should i keep my Skunk2's and cut the perch and jus pay and get those installed for $500 more thna the whole kit? im riding with blown struts and it is horrible. so for $620 i can get the Hayame V.3's and for $770, i can get the Omni's......what's the better buy????? thanks!!

Depends on what you are doing with the car...

For street use, either will work fine. If you plan on tracking the car (Autocross or open track) go with the konis.

but the Omni's, when i talked to them today, said that their coilovers are so hard to make for our car, that it'll be more than 60 days till they can arrive. i mean by that time, i can already have money for Tein Flex's if I wanted. so should I just save for something more reputable or jus wait for those Omni's for more than 2 months? I'd like to get some Tein Flex or some of the Megan full-coilovers they have now, but with Tein, i could EDFC....

check out the tread on Megan Racing coilovers by Telly. I think you might like this product he gave a review on. His opinion is very respected on this site. Good luck

omni has already made many claims about there full coilover system for the 2001+ civic. i remember reading a thread with one of there authorized dealers setting up a GB more than 6 months ago, Omni still hasnt came thru.

hayame? dont even bother. they gave up after producing the v3. after they figured out some had problems with the v3?, they just gave up. i think hayame stopped making those full coilovers now?

so if your wanting omnis, your gonna be in a long line. but whats important to know is what you want from the full coilovers?

i'm not sure why people consider a setup (hayame) that was laughed off the site years ago for being JUNK.

ive considered and researched, i like the B+G full coilovers setup i read on one of the foriums, they seem to be liked and ride pretty decnt and the drop can go pretty far and not sacrifice ride quality either. i mena on truehonda i think it is, u can get a set for a like $900, i mean that's better than the Megan's imo, b/c they really havent had a full coilover to get around to, and the thing i like bout them mainly is the PB upper mounts.
