Mmm coil bind! Delicious!


And don't think you're safe from their camber kits either, which use pressed-in bushings rather than welded-in like stock. Isn't the point of aftermarket parts to be BETTER than OEM, not worse?


And another example:


I'm half-Taiwanese. Doesn't mean I want my suspension parts to be made there. *cough* Omni *cough*


I distinctly recall an Omni rep calling out the moderator of the H-T Road Race forum for a few pages, with very little to provoke him. He also refused to supply shock dynos for his new product - maybe they've never done one? Wait a minute, didn't Koni offer to pay for shipping both ways to have anyone on the forum send them any competitor's shock to dyno for comparison?

I have dealt with Ground Control and Koni directly, both as a customer and as a dealer. Every time, first-rate service, and I've never heard of anybody getting anything less. I also have won 4 of my last 5 autocrosses, due in no small part to my GC/Koni setup. It's what you want, trust me. Even mentioning them in the same sentence as Omni or Tein Basics is shocking to me. The fact that they were NOT mentioned/suggested until my post makes me want to cry. It's not like the setup costs a hell of a lot more... $850-900 shipped? Not that big of a deal.

that's terrible, i had no idea. i hope that doesn't happen to my quicklutch i bought from them. i'm starting to get worried now though 'cause in the morning, the pedal is really low and i have to pull it up for it to get to normal position. we've bled the clutch system a million times and that problem's still around. it's like the engagement point moves down through the night or something, i'm pretty sure that's not normal.

Hate to say it, but those are pretty prone to leaking. Hope you fare better.
