No, No and No.
From what I can see they are decent quality, the ride is just right, no too hard not too soft.
But they could act completely different on a different car, mine are the Variant 1's aswell.

go for the KW's by far the best in the range you've mentioned...if budget does not allow go for the weitec's and the FK as third choice...

weitec coilovers seen them, they are a decent budget shock but about on par with fk pi, gmax etc
fk arent fantastic after the ones I have seen after being fitted for anything over 1 month.
kw are a good mid range option but have heared of harsh ride quality with them.
main problem with all of those brands is that the part is a pattern one, made as a copy of the standard part but never actually fitted and tested and then brought back to the manufactures with the results of what needs changing etc to improve them.
