Yeh its to do with what chassis the car has, not which engine it has

although if the engine is alot heavier they may produce a different kit to allow for this? (eg a mk3 golf gti has a different coilover set to a mk3 golf vr6, although you could physically fit them the internals may be set up differently?!) best thing to do would be to check both cars with the coilover manufacturer and see if they quote a different part number for each model.
