for a 99 accord are k sport coilover kits any good? i ordered the tein basics from sco an theyre on backorder. the guy said hed switch with the k sport if i wanted. i know teins good, but what about k sport? i need to make a decision quick. thanks.
Not necessarily, from a performance/track standpoint the Ksports would be pretty good, actually very good. They are a REALLY responsive setup for the price but the huge downside is that they are MUCH stiffer than Tein basics or Tein SS. So basically the Ksports will not be comfortable at all, you WILL feel everything on the road but your manuvering ability will go up quite substantially.UltraMagneticAL said:they suck. so do the tein basics unless you are really looking for height adjustability. but for the price of the teins, you should just look into a much better spring/strut combo if you seriously don't need the ride height adjustability.
spring rate most likely.H(alo)oNdA 5thG said:8k,10k coilover rating. .. what is this. . ?
of course it affects handling. look thru the suspension faqs in the suspension forum.H(alo)oNdA 5thG said:Yea but how does this effect the way the car performs and handles or is each manufactured spring rate different.
Kteller sucks.motionridr8 said:hey i just got the omni's on my 97 SE... so far, about 500 miles of driving, they are great... kinda stiff but thats what you get with 8k,10k spring rates... quality is great. some say they are bouncy, i say that its because they are a ton stiffer that stock and may feel as if they are bouncing, but really they are just not absorbing the little bumps in the road like the old stock setup did... i ordered from kteller.com and serice was great. highly reccomend. pm me if you have questions or whatever.

I had D2/Ksport coilovers and they are MUCH stiffer than Tein SS.wesside said:I just always go with research and you get what you pay for sometimes. Like bonestock says there all made by D2 so it really doesn't matter too much. I belive TSMpikachu had them? I've got some tein ss coilovers with 3k on them for $200 & my stock strut/spring just need to go do the swap this next weekend...aahhh shit its been a few yrs since I yanked out struts
I would go Tein or tanabe before I EVER went or consider Omni. I would much rather get a really nice spring/shock setup before even LOOKING at omnipower.H(alo)oNdA 5thG said:Not trying to thread jack but has anyone experienced any pros & cons with omni power coilover setup . . they run about $700 bones on password jdm for the 94-95 accord. A friend of mine recommended them to me over the tanabe's & teins b/c of their price and quality.
