in case some of you might be interested (maybe?)

new omnipower coilovers are out for accords now...civics and tegs were running these for a while...i preordered mine and just finished installing and setting them properly today..took it for a test drive and these are very very nice =)

the ride is stiff (i'm running 10k (560 lbs) front and 12k (670lbs) rear) and the shocks are valved very well with the rates as long as you preload them correctly...cornering is flat with my front swaybar removed..these won't ride like sport springs so expect to give up a little (or alot for some people depending on their comfort levels) comfort with these...i didn't preload my rears right and they were slightly bouncy but it was a quick fix...now everytime i go over a bump it doesn't bounce at all..i recommend these for those on a tight budget..i believe it's at $650 shipped right now not sure

you can read more about them at www.kteller.com ..very good people to do business with and as of I know they are the only ones that are distributing them for the accord as of now...

here's some pics..my previous setup was kyb agx with hnr sport springs





this was my car jacked up with the hnr sport


and now with 12k rear omni


i'll be going to one more autocross next saturday on oct 30 right before the season ends so i'll give an update and let you guys know how these hold up

now i have my hnr sport with kyb agx up for sale in black market

i'm just writing a review on the coilovers..being that these are coilovers i can lower them 3 inches, then lower them 1 inch..show you guys pics of both drops but that wouldn't tell you much about them right =)

i just showed the pics of the car on jacks to show what happens to the wheels for each suspension...notice on with the hnr sport and kyb agx the wheels droop down and with the omni the wheels hardly droop at all...of course this is solely due to the spring rates

but i'll get pics of my drop (i'm guessing it's around 2 inches) whenver i can

It has nothing to do with spring rates, it has everything to do with the strut being shorter.
