Heres a pic sample of my megan coilovers. I dont wanna take full pics till i get it at the right ride height for me. I installed the coilovers without height adjustment and they pretty much came out the same as my intrax springs just a tad tad bit lower almost no major change but that means out of the box is somewhere at least 2" drop but then again I havent let it settle. When I installed it my tires were 1 inch of the ground, when I jacked up the knuckle, the tires were decently far from the ground after, I am assuming the ride height will get lower still after much driving. Haven't done a damper adjustment yet too, i was too tired, had stubborn bolts and nuts - had to grind one off. Took it for a quick ride though, stiff but still comfortable at the same time, it must be my tires though. I want to compare the hardest adjustment vs. the softest.

I was planning to buy Tein coils, but now i'm curious about thoose megans...Teins are around 1000€ to me, megans 670€, teins have 16 levels, and thoose ones 32, teins dont have camber unlike thoose ones but i am prety sure that if i set my right front level at 14 (like every other level) as the left one i'm sure that the softness is the same (unlike D2 and Ksport). Do u think its the same for megans too? or its lower price is for a lower quality too? Cuz i read on the web that D2 are good too if u have the right tools to set 'em good, but thoose tools are expansive XD I know that the same setting isn't really needed to use the car on the track, but i'd like to feel sure that 14 left is softer (or harder, dont matter) than 13 or 12 on the right...maybe i did some confusion...tell me if u can understand what i'd want to say
