Ive herd good things about the megans and i plan on getting them when the time comes.

Camber plates dont exist for the MK3 because they have double wishbone suspension, the coilover only holds the vehicle up, it plays no part in suspension geometry.

I think the actual shock is the same on both. I would go with K-sport since the megan's are stupid stuff. But both should be good. I haven't really heard bad things about either, besides not being able to get low enough but that shouldn't be an issue for most people.

My megan's have been really good. Stiff yes, but its required for a really low car so you don't bottom out everywhere. Megan's are able of going really low with a little bit of time spent on them. (taking off a few O rings).

For the rear it is lower arms. If you want low look at other coilovers. I have Tein HA and they get me low but I want a little lower which is why I just bought Stance coilovers.

I dont reccomend the megans. I dont know if my set is weird or what, but my fronts are way soggier than the rears. If i go over a speedbump strait on, the front will bounce up and then down really hard, if i do the same speed over the rear it will just hop over the bump. Anyways, i have to set the front struts to full stiff and the rears to full soft to get it to actually handle decently and not slide out like crazy. You also cannot lower the rears very far with these so beware.

The fronts go lower than this, but the rears right here are basically as low as they go
