Default Have you heard or experienced of these companies

As far as suspension goes - full coilover setup - which of these companies that you recommend? I actually hear that these are about the same as Tein SS quality or BETTER.

D2 Racing, Megan Racing, OmniPower, Tein SS with Top mount, K-Sport, and Yonaka Motorsports.

I heard good things about OmniPower, but don't know about the rest. Megan Racing is new, I don't like their performance headers, but don't know about the rest. Their products seem legit.

Purpose: Daily + Occasional fun - AutoX

a lot of the guys on S2KI recommended the megan coilovers, saying they are essentially rebadged buddy clubs. i didnt feel too good about them, especially because of how weak the bottom mounts looked. i ended up going with bilsteins (tried and true).

dj02, are you speaking from experiences and reviews or just from popularity and randomly?

Reechy, beside megan, have you heard of any others?

a little of both. tein well you just cant go wrong there, omni there new but well worth the price a lil stiff but very good quality, dc2 i had them for a while and for the price and ride you really cant go wrong. the other 3 i have no idea about except for megan and there just like obx so i put them last.

d2 ive seen before and rode on the street...seemed decent, not really pushing them though
megan's i almost got but were to new at the time, but from what ive seen and heard they have been getting good reviews for their price
omni's are good and bad..good bang for the buck, but then there have been some that have failed but its a good price
teins have a good ride, specially just the coils, i just think to many people are tein sackriders and i actually chose my buddy club's over the ss
k-sport we put on my roomies gf's civic. ride well,decent build, but no long term testing on them so i dont know how they will last
yonaka i never heard of
asiandood will probably be the one whos ridden/driven the ones you've listed the most. if they were all the same price i would probably go megan, tein, omni, d2, ksport...but then i dont really know ish so

Thanks Airon, that's very helpful.

These are the prices.

Tein SS - 1175
Megan - 925
D2 - 875
K-Sports - 750
Omni Power - 650
Yokana - 600

Now, waiting for doood to answer my call ........I was leaning toward K-sports for best bang for the buck, the ran into the same question - longevity Many people who had them liked them, but since they're fairly new, who know how long they'd last.
